I wondered yesterday whether Robert Gibbs jumped or was pushed and noted that President Barack Obama’s words indicated that it was “not an entirely voluntary departure”. It’s being reported by John King on CNN right now that Gibbs wanted to be a presidential counsellor – something he’s been putting about for quite a while – but William Daley, the new chief of staff, nixed this because he believed that too many cooks would spoil the presidential broth. So that’s why Gibbs is out. Additionally, King reports that Valerie Jarrett, whose sole qualification to being a senior counsellor

I gotta buy more popcorn
Two years ago Obama followed the advice “If you want a friend, get a dog”.
This going to be fun to watch as Obama's new cronies stab the old cronies in the back and throw them out with the garbage. Jarrett is a particularly nasty piece of work and one of MO's best pals, so her exit will be particularly bloody.
Sounds like Daley wants King Barry all to himself.
I guess the boy king does need a regent.
Too many cooks? Too many crooks seems more the issue...
Colonel, USAFR
It continues to amaze me that we get more real news from the UK than we do from the alphabet stations and print rags in this country.
So ol “Beltway Bob” got ousted by “Bill the Shill” Daley. Definate popcorn time
Oh no. Once you work for the mob. You are in the family forever.
Interesting article, thanks for posting. Loved the comment section, thought I was reading Free Republic.
The big mistake was firing Desiree Rogers over the Salahi party-crasher scandal. Desiree is the daughter of the Voodoo Queen of New Orleans.
Notice that Obama has been plagued with bad luck ever since.
“Obama is nothing if not ruthless. One aide described him as “the most unsentimental man I’ve ever met”.”
Given the endless assortment of psychopaths, revolutionary fellow travelers and perverts he was raised by and then chose to associate with one wonders how he could be anything else. The guy has serious issues that run way back on both sides of the family...And that can be said no matter who the true daddy turns out to be.
In other words, no empathy whatever. The only person in the world he really cares about is himself.
Back to malignant narcissism. The psychiatrists may have written narcissism out of their playbook, along with gay pederasty. But these things are real, and they are sick.
Obama being ruthless, and contained by the Chicago crowd of advisors at the same time indicates to me that he’s a BS artist in way over his head. Daley doesn’t fit the mold of a CofS being as old as he looks. I assume that he’s there to pick up the pieces for the real power players and it ain’t Brack. I wonder who his staff will include?
Lol, and Obama's associates probably need a dog more than he does.
Who Wrote the Secret New Obama Novel?
