More Stupid
They really do want to fail and fail badly this November. How else can you judge what Obama’s press secretary, Robert Gibbs, said in an interview.
Digby says Welcome Their Hatred, and Susie said Poor Robert Gibbs, just before hitting the bomb release.
This White House is a biosphere, cut off from the rest of the country. Don’t they know any real people? Do they ever leave their bubble?
They were given substantial majorities in both houses of Congress; they haven’t provided even one substantial benefit for the people who voted for them; they are talking about taking even more from those people; and they don’t understand why those people are angry.
Obama may be intelligent, but he’s not very smart.

Obama may be intelligent, but he’s not very smart.
I am beginning to think he’s just Educated and Articulate! That’s far from Intelligent! And given he spent a lot of time in Illinois and Chicago… I would have thought he’d have more *street smarts* and some self-preservation!
Ther was a brief entry at TP about Gibbs, quoting HuffPo:
I’d say Ellison was annoyed. 😉 😀
Rep. Ellison: ‘Gibbs Crossed The Line’
I’d call them the “Realist Left”! It seems there are still a few sane Dem’s. Too bad there are not enough to be effective!
The only way they can be effective is by stop going along with Obama. If they say enough is enough and refuse to compromise, Obama will get nothing through the House, and it is time to do it. They haven’t received anything for their service to “the Party”, so it is time to make some demands.
Kinda OT: I just read this at TP… and then I read it again. And again. Very weird!
So… Ummm… What’s wrong with THAT picture??! I must have woken up in an alternate Universe this morning! Either that, or someone slipped some reality pill’s into the FOX coolaid! *shrug* 😉
Fox Hosts Agree With Obama’s Defense Of Mosque: ‘He Has To Stand Up For Our Constitution’
Actually, it was one of the few smart moves made by the White House, framing the issue in Constitutional terms. You can’t oppose the reality of the Constitutional guarantee of religious freedom and still claim to be a conservative. There are a few things that even Faux won’t attempt.
Dubya made a number of speeches saying nice things about Muslims, like his good friends the Saudi royal family, and Gerson probably wrote most of them, so he wasn’t going to stick his neck out.
