Former White House press secretary Robert Gibbs lashed out against Texas Gov. Rick Perry on Tuesday, saying it was a “remarkable turnaround” for the Republican presidential candidate to say he was passionate about America just a few years after he was talking about the possibility of Texas seceding from the U.S. The current White House spokesman, Jay Carney, also took issue with comments Perry made on Monday, warning that political candidates have to be careful about what they say.

What exactly was wrong with wanting Texas to secede? Too bad other states wouldn’t do the same.

If a conservative president can save America, there will be no need for conservative states to secede.

See how simple that is? Even a libtard like Gibby can understand it.

White House Debate Framing:

“ALL Republicans are insane, whacko, Christo-Fascist nutjobs.”

MEDIA: “Yes, they are!”

Don’t EVER understimate the power of propaganda with a willing media, folks. It’s how Obama got elected in the 1st place.

Judge a man by the enemies he makes.

Gibbs? Gibbs? Who in hell is Gibbs?

Oh. Now I remember. A puke-faced, sissy kind of an ass who apologized for his master’s stupidity.

I just love the, “I can be facetious and make jokes, but you can’t” attitude of the Dems.

Baghdad Bob back in the news I see. Since you have publicly declared that you put the Obama COLB on the internet, you can expect to be called before the courts when the new administration is installed in 2013 (if not sooner).

They’re scared because Perry has executive experience and is a three term governor of a state that has produced jobs while the rest of the country hasnt. He served his country and is everything obama is not.
