Gibbs Explains Why Obamas Won't Vacation In Gulf

"Why not vacation down there if they are encouraging others to do so?," asked CBS' Chip Reid.

"I think the key is ... I have friends that email me also from Panama City that they have been down just this past week and have not seen oil, not dealt with oil on the beach and I think sometimes the pictures have led people to believe that oil may be where they were planning on going," White House press secretary Robert Gibbs said.

"I think the First Lady's message is that the Gulf is a beautiful place," Gibbs added.

TAR BALLS. LOL!

Probably left there by her husband during his visit.

She was there yesterday. She encouraged vacationers to come on down...”the water and beaches are just fine.”

More vital info on her visit:

Michelle Obama changed out of her dotted dress and put on some beachwear to travel down to Florida on Monday afternoon. In white pants and a white and black print tank top by Thakoon, FLOTUS spoke to a crowd in Panama City Beach before walking along the sand barefoot. She then got ice cream at the Pink Pelican Ice Cream Bar, ordering one scoop of chocolate in a cup, according to pool reports.

Would Gibbs volunteer for Gulf vacation, or Joe Biden? Can we get anyone from the administration to come down to the Gulf and just sip a beer on the oil-stained beach?

“I think the first lady’s message is ‘F___ the little people’. Get your cracker asses down there and spend some money.

As for me and my fabulosity, I’m going to kick it in Kennebunkport.

We MIGHT consider coming down here for our September vacation.”

Doesn’t everyone wear a 650.00 tank top to the beach? She is a complete attention whore and stuck on herself. Elitist pigs, both of them. If the average black that voted for them think they they identify with them in any way but empty words and slogans, they are mindless idiots.

I agree, and he is still their hero because of the color of his skin. Pitiful, isn’t it?
