In breaking news, former White House Press Secretary Scott McClellan has lost his crown as biggest 'tool' to face questions from Helen Thomas (RIP, 1992). In only two weeks, Obama-hack Robert Gibbs has adopted a press-handling style that makes Joe Biden and "The One" (without prompter) look positively articulate. Gibbs, who never met a tired sports metaphor, uhh or um, or Fox News conspiracy he didn't try, is quickly wearing out his welcome with a sympathetic (sycophantic?) Washington Press Corps.
In NY Magazine, Chris Rovzar complains of the undue harsh treatment Gibbs gets in his first days on the job. Because after all, the White House is well-suited for on-the-job training, right?

Good grief...this is awful...W was crucified for FAR less...
The video of Gibbs reminds me of Public Defender John Gibbons in “My Cousin Vinny” (played by Austin Pendleton). Remember after his first disastrous, stuttering cross examination, he walked back to the defense table, sat down, and said to his client, “He’s a tough one.”
That’s Gibbs.
I hit the mute button, left the room, logged on to FR and started reading this thread.
I went back to try and watch and listen again.
I just can’t stand the sight and sound of a socialists.
I have NO idea how my post ended up on this thread!
