Re: You Go, Helen Thomas!!!

Did anyone watch this clip? I'm very surprised the liberal Helen Thomas questioned the secrecy of the White House. She said they have never seen this in the past!

That surprised me also.

The Reid guy did a good job as well.

Re: You Go, Helen Thomas!!!

The house of cards is finally starting to show some stress and strains.
I just hope to damage done until there is a national awakening to what is really going on, will not be permenant or irreversable.
I still beleive in the American spirit of liberty, and liberty will ultimately prevail, despite what is being taught on TV, in our schools and across our pulpits.

Re: You Go, Helen Thomas!!!

Robert Gibbs did absolutely NOTHING to disuade anyone of the point that Reid and Thomas were trynig to make.


After this exchange, I think (hope) the way of preselecting questioners and/or questions will be done away with by ALL future Presidents, especially and more immediately, President Obama.

This practice is not becomming of the President Obama that many folks voted for.

I would guess this happens more than folks want to admit. But when a candiate runs on transparency and then is anything but, lets you know you most likely can't depend or believe anything he said. So far I haven't seen any of his promises come to pass, except change, which he did not specify what that would be, and ignorant folks said yes let's have change not knowing that the change would be worse than what they already had.

This practice is not becoming of the President Obama that many folks voted for.
He was so obviously skirting the issue! And, Jermyn, the whole thing is that we saw this coming before it was happening with Obama, but no one would listen to us.

Helen Thomas was a thorn in the side of W ... good to see she's doing the same with BHO.

She sure was a thorn in W's side. LOL! She's going to give Gibbs a hard, hard time! She was pretty ticked off! Loved it! LOL! I think I'll watch that clip again! Gibb's looked like a giggling schoolboy who did not know what to do and couldn't run!

Gibbs is a moron.

I still cannot believe his answer to a question on what it would take for US intervention in Iran:

Quote:
"Obviously if a tremendous escalation happens -- if tanks happen -- we would respond to that immediately," Gibbs said.
Dumb
