Another chance for liberal totalitarians in the white house to hobknob with liberal punks in the media.

what a shock.

Should have had sharks in the tank to make it interesting.

Well the video shows Gibbs soaked but doesn’t show the actual dunking...
Obama must have asked Gibbs to find out what it is like to be “soaked” so he can relate to the Middle Class soaking that is taking place.

If I were President, there would be none of this nonsense going on. I’m not saying that there would be no humor or lighthearted moments, but remember that we all just paid to see Gibbs get dunked. I have contempt for people who sanctimoniously tell us how dire the times are and that we all must make sacrifices, while they’re having extravigent luaus at our expense.

He would be like a whale in a bathtub. Bet they had to refill the water if he got dunked more than once.

Obama’s White House is composed of twelve year olds playing with live grenades. Someone is going to get hurt. And soon.

Even sh^t like Gibbs floats, the acid would work, right?

It is embarrassing to see so much money wasted on the Obama’s obsession with promoting themselves. A jazz seminar for students attending the best music schools in the country... A luau...

No offense, I know some of the entertainers involved, but it is an extravagance that can only be conceived by a narcissist. For the cost of this, there are homeless shelters in Chicago that could really use the donations.

.

Obama runs the White House like a 3rd rate affirmitive action frat/crack house

Americans are tiring of his wimpy self-promoting fairy tales of of how he was deprieved as a child - on a Father’s Day TV broadcast

I hear he has a hallway covered with his own pictures and mucho mirrors

OMG!! Why did you make me visualize that?!?!?! Do you really hate him that much? Such water would be deadly. If she were to just get waste deep in a river all of the fish within a couple of miles up and down stream would instantly float to the surface. Just being NEAR the tank would be unbearable because of the smell.
