White House press secretary Robert Gibbs tried to quiet speculation about a possible falling out between President ...

... Barack Obama and British Prime Minister Gordon Brown by taking aim at one of his favorite targets: the British media.

"I think this is media generated," Gibbs told reporters on Air Force One. "Stop reading those London tabloids."

There is something not quite right about Gibbs (and the entire administration for that matter). Check out the eyes...

“The world turned upside down” from my favorite movie The Patriot from Mel Gibson. None of those who fought on either side of our Revolution could possibily have imagined that Americans who gave their blood and treasure for freedom of the press now have to get honest reporting from the English.
The world turned upside down!

The world now wipes its butt on hussein and his administration... they are the slop jar of world politics... and everyone that should like us hates us... and everyone that should hate us likes us... 99% of those are muslims... the other 1% are what is left of communism... both of which hussein is.

Gibbs is about to learn how vicious and unforgiving the Brit media really is...

Yes! How tables have turned! Gibbs has been drinking to much of the Kool-Aid and it’s beginning to show up in his eyes....

“Stop reading those London tabloids.”

Ooh, I like the way he talks. May “those London tabloids” go after this administration with a vengeance.

“”If I wanted to read a writeup today of how Manchester United fared last night in the Champion’s League cup, I might open up a British newspaper,” he said. “If I was looking for something that bordered on truthful news, I’m not entirely sure it’d be in the first pack of clips I’d pick up.”

Wow, I missed that garbage! Gibbs is an idiot and Obama’s an idiot for keeping him on.

Exactly.. the day a liberal US administration labels the liberal-sypathetic “The Guardian” as a tabloid is the day you known that administration is either incompetant or an utter Thugocracy. Its beyond belief.

My husband heard on the radio this morning where Obama snubbed the P.M of England. Brown chased after Obama from one meeting to another yesterday and Obama didn't stop just kept walking and just nodded and walked off.

Wow! The people who think Obama is looking after them and are depending on Obama as an partner in the future, should be concerned. He is siding with all of the U.S.’s enemies and throwing all of our allies under the bus.

Even if you think you are in the loop with him, if you become a problem, obstacle or negative asset you will be eliminated. He is ruthless and no one is indispensable in his circle.

What an idiot. Message for Gibbsey... bad analogy. Its AIG man. You and Zero bought ManU for us..remember. That’s America’s team baby paid for with our tax dollars.
Better learn to chant.... Roooon-ey.

Besides, if you or Alexrod actually read anything you would know it Carling Cup season this week and Sir Alex got a little extra, extra time.

Oh I am sure the thought in Gibbs’ minds along with a lot of people who are serving Obama are wondering how long they will be kept on before seeing the bottom side of the bus!

“media generated”
“astroturf”
“racist”

The full list of LibTard responses to ANY criticism of the anointed one and his mad march to marxism.

It’s time to take back the country.

“Lawn Dart”, laced with mind altering drugs which not only will customized the service one serves his master for only a short period of time but then renders the injected target brain dead and speechless within 6 months.
