WH lashes out at CNBC's Santelli

Politico ^ | February 20, 2009 | JOSH GERSTEIN

[oldbrowser]

Gibbs insisted Santelli was misinformed when he said Obama’s program would amount to a transfer of money from prudent taxpayers to those who had taken reckless risks.

This is sort of like "survival of the fittest" in reverse.

[A Citizen Reporter]

“Gibbs brandished a copy of a fact sheet about Obama’s plan.”

Can anyone find this thing on the WH website? I can’t.

[techno]

A trader who is ‘on the ground’ in the heat of battle is misinformed. That’s like saying that a soldier in ‘no man’s land’ was mistaken that he was caught in a crossfire while struggling to reach the enemy’s wire entanglement.

[erikm88]

These people believe that THEY control the message, not the media.

And if the media doesn’t agree, then Obama will just take thier licenses away!!

Hmmmm... Somewhere I've seen this happen before!!!! Chavez to shut down opposition TV

[mojitojoe]

The brownshirts are coming.

Thanks...found this thread also:

Alinski's Rules: Must Reading In Obama Era

***********************EXCERPT INTRO**************************

Immediately after the Democratic National Convention in Colorado, the Boston Globe published a letter from David Alinsky. He boasted about how Barack Obama had made effective use of his training in the methods of David's late father, the famous Chicago radical, Saul Alinsky.

David Alinsky gloated: "I am proud to see that my father's model for organizing is being applied successfully beyond local community organizing to affect the Democratic campaign in 2008. It is a fine tribute to Saul Alinsky as we approach his 100th birthday."

Yep...freedom of speech is great!

[hsalaw]

Why is the Obambi administration bringing everyone who criticizes them up to the same level as the presidency? Or has the prestige of the presidency sunk to a new low.

[subterfuge]

Gibbs should know he’s being played the jester, as are all delegated to, he will take the blame.

You! GIBBS!! Under the bus!!!!

Santelli was the feature on the NBC news with Brian Willians and he did not pan him. I ran to the window, threw open the shutter threw up the sash and what to my wondrous eyes did appear but forty flying pigs...

[AliVeritas]

Yep. Case in point. This was a post on Larry Johnson’s blog in October of last year (and you know what side of the road that is):

Gibbs is the court eunach.

“Mr. Santelli “

An Italian like me! Go soul brother....!

[DJ MacWoW]

Yeah, he has his own cult following above and beyond the marxist followers.

I can't help but think about all the info that we had prior to the election and the freepers that refused to vote for McCain and said they'd vote 3rd party or write-in. Dumb dumb dumb!

Maybe Brian hadn't yet got the WH talking points.

I forgot, Dr. Sanity also did some great pieces on it:

I wonder if the obama’s are saying anti-itallian things.

[Doctor Raoul]

Sic’ing the Obama Brownshirts (ACORN) on this guy. They’ll show up on his lawn any day now.
