Gibbs treats the thing like a big joke too.

It is rather bizarre, he seems very detatched from everything going on, and jokes about all of these challenges. It appears he likes being President, but little of the work that comes with the job (except the partying and travel and of course the continual campaigning)

When you look at recent threads about Geitner wanting to have more control over contracts and the ability to step in and manage companies, the recent House vote on Obama Youth Camps that goes before the Senate soon, the bill to tax AIG bonuses at 95% and other similar issues, they're on such a fast track that he may be feeling secure in the knowledge that he is now in control of America. So why should he show restraint? If we don't like it, let us eat cake...

It’s all he knows how to do; get in front of a crowd and receive adulation.

He has no clue what it means to be POTUS and is avoiding doing the work needed.

Opossum is the typical office goof-off that gets promoted.

I guess “gallows humor” depends on who is on the gallows.

The retirement, college, and other savings plans of tens of millions of us are now swinging on the gallows of this economy as the White House bolshevik central planners race daily to further their agenda by attenuating and worsening this crisis.

So excuse us for not laughing.

obommie-the-commie is a movie star president - adored by shallow fans and speaks the words someone else writes for him.

Give it time. I am sure within a week the media will report that Obama is just being cool under pressure.

Yeah, I have a feeling the communist executioners thought their “gallows humor” was a lot funnier than the Romanov family standing in front of the machine guns.

It’s kind of like Mich Jagger. The man is physically repulsive, but he became a sex symbol because the media told women that he was supposed to be one - and far be it from them to actually think for themselves and conclude, “But he’s a freaking gargoyle.”

Punch drunk with cauliflower ears. He’s on the ropes or he (rope-a-dope?). Soon he will be down for the count. Although, I’d prefer to see a citizen (can’t rely on the media) land a knockout punch in one of his controlled town halls. I’ll take a TKO, but a KO would be better.
