Gibbs is laughing, Obama is playing first fiddle…
I can’t tell you how disappointed I am that I missed this. Thank goodness for youtube – I will watch this every day for the next 3 1/2 years – or at least until they “redact” it from the net. Here’s Helen -
“I’m amazed at you people…”
Yeah, she said “you people.” If things keep heading downhill as bad as this, next week she’ll call him “that one”.
“Calling reporters the night before to tell them they’ll be called on – that is shocking.”
Of course, unlike other briefings, when Gibbs attempted to giggle his way out of this unscripted moment, no one else in the room was laughing.
Helen Thomas has written four books; her latest is Watchdogs of Democracy?: The Waning Washington Press Corps and How It Has Failed the Public
It is a little late, Helen… after all, you people are guilty of helping install this lying crap bag in the Oval Office.
Update – Turns out the “Health Care Town Hall” was more than just a garden of planted questions. It was even worse than the press predicted. So bad, in fact, Ed Morrissey at HotAir made it an Obamateurism of the Day, no small feat considering how many opportunities the admin provides each day.
