Rick Santelli Keeps Pressure On Obama Mortgage Plan, Gibbs - Audio 2/23/09
Freedom's Lighthouse ^ | February 23, 2009 | BrianinMO

Posted on 02/23/2009 7:26:57 PM PST by Federalist Patriot

CNBC's Rick Santelli talked with G. Gordon Liddy today on radio, and he kept the pressure on the Obama Mortgage Plan. Santelli also made it clear he did not appreciate the remarks by White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs last week. Gibbs called Santelli out by name and even making a bizarre reference to "not knowing where Mr. Santelli lives, or in what house he lives." Liddy said Gibb's comment is a "veiled threat," and Santelli agreed today, "it really is."

I have to say, I was watching Gibbs last week when he made that statement and it struck me immediately as very odd. But I had not thought of it in that way. But with all the pressure coming against Santelli from Obama and his supporters, I can see where he would look at it in that way. . . . . (Listen to Santelli)

The Obamoids don’t seem to realize that even though they have poll numbers, that doesn’t translate into respect or even fear. When they criticize someone in the media, they push back, knowing that keeping such a tussle in the open will prevent obvious payback.

The Obamoids really do have an attitude like the cliched spoiled rich kid who says “Well my dad is rich, so you’d better let me do what I want.” Their attitude is different but similar: “I won, so you just shut up and do what I say.”

The gang of thugs in the White House are intent on destroying anyone who criticizes them. Bravo for Santelli for not backing down and apologizing for telling the truth. We need thousands of brave men to step up to the plate and save our nation in the fight of its life.

I heard the comment and it did sound like a veiled threat. Robert Gibbs is a big homo...and a nasty arrogant bitchy queen. Will someone please publish a picture of him in black leiderhosen and nipple rings, please? anyone?

Dems are soooooo charming - what's next, will his cat be found dead? And Liddy's right - it is a veiled threat.

There is no way Gibbs survives one year in that job. He is absolutely atrocious as a spokesman, and he can’t control his anger.

I’m surprised he’s survived THIS LONG!!!

Fuhrer Obama didn’t take my Advice. In order to save time and Money .. he should have had appointed a Special Prosecutor for every Cabinet appointee!!

Gibb's incompetence is breathtaking. I thought Scott McClellan was horrible. Scott is fricking Brit Hume compared to Gibbs. Where did Obama find this clown? And Gibbs just has that chump look to him too. Think of Newman's character on Seinfeld times ten.

Can you imagine the outrage if Bush would have went after Cindy Sheehan or any of the H'wood scumbags that trashed him non-stop? Bush never publicly went after private citizens like the Obama administration is doing. Typical Left and their projection. I mean, think about it. Did Code Pink ever get raided by the Feds on orders from Bush? Did anyone who ever spoke bad about Bush? Where is the Hitler analogy?

The republicans should be calling for an investigation of Gibbs comments.

Gibbs was referring to Rick’s neighborhood....didn’t know where he lived but other neighborhoods were having hard times, etc.

What has me really upset is the way CNBC talking heads were treating Rick today. They were shouting at him and would not let him finish his sentences.

Then when they finally shut up and began to let Rick talk, the CNBC music started playing in the background and they shortly went to break.

I could not believe it. Here the guy has brought extra viewership to CNBC, and they blast him on live TV. Someone is wanting to silence Rick, but I hope he keeps telling the truth loud and clear.

CNBC should have been bombarded with emails for their bad treatment of Rick today.
