Is it not telling that Gibbs would have to clarify and distance his regime from the press?

Does the Hussein view of the murderous cult of I slam follow the moderate or radical view?
The Muslim moderate view is the Jews should be pushed into the sea.
The radicals want their throat cut before pushing them into the sea.

They don’t want Helen Thomas to turn against Obama in revenge for throwing her under the bus...imagine all the hatred, normally turned against the GOP suddenly turned on the president. The left would be damaged. HT is everylib’s grandma. This would be a “BIG DEAL”! So they have to be careful how they handle her; they already smarting from that senior citizen auditor they fired turning around and suing them!

Those remarks were offensive and reprehensible," Gibbs said today during a press briefing. Thomas was absent from the front row seat reserved for her in the White House press room.
"She should and has apologized," Gibbs continued. "Obviously, those remarks do not reflect the opinion, I assume, of most of the people in here and certainly not of the administration."
Helen has received conratulations from Hamas.She said what lots of liberals say in private.

Hi Jimbo123,
I called and left a message for Frank Bennack. Thank you for providing the number.
The phone number for Steven Schwarz, however, connects me with someone named George Irish (?). I hung up.

"certainly" do not reflect the views of the Obama administration. The fact that Gibbs felt it necessary to make this point says it all.

They all want the Jews in Israel killed and scattered!
They also are good buddies with Barack Obama, but you're not supposed to think about that.

Obama sure has a lot of close buddies whose views don’t reflect the views of the administration.

“People in the entertainment community, whether Jew or gentile, need to demonstrate that they understand how much is at stake in this by professionally shunning Mel Gibson and refusing to work with him, even if it means a sacrifice to their bottom line.
There are times in history when standing up against bigotry and racism is more important than money.”
