Here is video of former Obama Press Secretary Robert Gibbs on Fox & Friends this morning where he praised GOP Rep. Michele Bachmann’s debate performance last night in New Hampshire. Gibbs said Romney did well and remains the frontrunner, but he singled out Bachmann for having “moved the ball down the field” with her debate performance.
Not kidding.
Here is video of President Obama yesterday in his farewell to White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs referring to himself as “The Gipper.”
Obama gave Gibbs back a tie he had borrrowed from Gibbs framed alongside two photos of himself with Gibbs as a going away gift! You can’t make this stuff up!
Here is video of White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs at a special conference today on the Crisis in Egypt. Gibbs was asked if Obama has spoken to Egyptian President Mubarak. Gibbs took a long time but eventually said that Obama has not spoken to Mubarak. When asked point blank if Obama supports Mubarak, Gibbs pointedly refused to offer any support for Mubarak and his Government.

Gibbsy will be a tough act to follow as far as being able to top his level of sheer idiocy. But Michelle Malkin has the goods on Carney, and his resume of attacking conservatives.
Here is video of White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs today making the statement that “rational people” decided, “maybe when the first heard and saw” Barack Obama, that he is a citizen of the United States.
That seems an odd answer since you really can’t tell who is a citizen just by hearing and seeing them! The fact that the State of Hawaii certifies that Barack Obama was born there might have been a more “rational” answer.

Here is video of White House Press Secretary telling the Press Corps that many members of Congress will be up late reading the 1924-page Omnibus Spending Bill between now and the 22nd or 23rd of December.
