Gibbs: I’m not really an intentionalist, but I do play one on TV:
Gotta love the wink wink nod nod here. It’s as if Gibbs is saying of the naked emperor, “no, those weren’t his balls brushing over the cold cut platter at the buffet table” — and a hundred reporters, having watched those emperor balls scrape the pile of shaved turkey, not only pretend to agree, but they then rush off to make a emperor balls-flavored turkey sandwich just to show that they’re in on the lie.
Up is down. Black is white. Stiller is Meara…

Here.
I like the laughter. And I like the fact that Gibbs was not amused by the laughter. Tough job to have the Prez field puff-balls the night before and then you’re stuck with cleaning up Joe Biden’s puke the next day. Gibbs does such a crappy job at it too. I bet Gibbs just can’t wait to get home to a nice hot bath and a good book.
Book. Good one.
So: Ron Ziegler or Mohammed Saeed al-Sahaf?
Joe speaks “Biden”. A little known offshoot of English. Gibbs was just doing his Babelfish impersonation. All were amused. All were sated. The tergiversation (h/t Jeffersonian) went mostly unnoticed or at least unremarked.
This one was pretty good, but my favorite one so far is when he was asked a question about the Manhattan airplane fiasco last week and responded “You’ll have to ask the White House about that.”
What a moronic little turd he is.
Would someone please tell me that this is all a dream and that when I wake up it’s October 08 and the Thompson/Sanford ticket is destroying the Clinton/Obama team?
Please?
“I am a moron and, yes, I play one on TV.”
Gibbs is not respected. This is what I gather.
Cliff Clavin is Sam Malone
Urkel is Samuel Jackson
Han shot second
Boy, we really dodged a bullet by not putting Palin in the VP office, didn’t we?
SarahW, I think that it is the American people who are not respected when officials of their government will speak to them in this way.
12. Yes, disgracefully so, Sdferr.
Gibbs is not thought well of, though. Maybe up there with Baghdad Bob.
Gibbs always makes me think of him but to be honest I limit my Gibbs exposure cause it’s disturbing how he lies and even when he tells the truth he’s entirely too comfortable saying Dumb Things.
11. I remember people telling me how much more “statesmanlike” Biden was. It was funny then.
?
When even NPR is calling you a dirty socialist, you might want to ease up a bit, Lisa.
Biden brought gravitas to the administration is what I remember being told. The “vomit comet” is used to bring the same amount of weight for seconds that Joe has full time.
Vice President Denathor Biden: “Abandon your posts! Run!! Run for your lives!!!”
Spokesman Wormtongue Gibbs: “I think what the Vice President wanted to say was it would be prudent to use hand sanitizer frequently”
Next to which, Tony Snow seems a mile tall and a hundred years past, RIP.
Jake Tapper has had several exceptional moments over the last few weeks. Those employed as “journalists” should take note and see how it’s done.
Maybe he misspoke.
“Spokesman Wormtongue Gibbs”
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAA!!!!!!
Remember when the GAY PORN COCK OF LIES asked Bush what his most enchanted moment so far was? ‘Cause I was thinking that was an awfully gay question.
Like Steve Martin said: Some people have a way with words; other people, not have way.
Brakabama is a terrified narcissist. That is why he surrounds himself with incompetent boobs. Its also why he forced the folks at Georgetown to hide the Jesus.
He can’t abide any competition. Its a weird dichotomy. Ego versus superego. He both loves and loathes Brakabama.
So your President calls out the torturers after all? And here we thought the CIA people were going to get a pass and only the lawyers were branded as fair game pinatas. Who knew the knives would be coming out for the lowly worker dudes?
And looky! Marx is back!
emperor balls and turkey sandwich.
it is the end of April but anyone else thinking they are coming up with a better descriptive analogy ought to call it a year.
Maybe thor can explain wtf lame-assed propaganda this is opposed to be what the Associated Press’s dirty socialist piece of shit Tim Paradis tosses off today.
Dirty liar. Dirty socialist skeezey fucking liar. Check the charts I linked. That’s +5.4% for the Dow and +7.52% for the S&P. For real thor is it smart investyness to buy into a “rally” what is supported by dirty socialist Associated Press propaganda butt boys like Tim Paradis? Cause I’m thinking that’s just gay.
He both loves and loathes Brakabama.
And that is the clinical structure of Narcissistic Personality Syndrome. They’ve been taught to despise themselves so badly that they have to construct a heroic false self to even bear being conscious of their own existence.
But they feel no pain anymore. They’re not to be pitied but avoided, isolated, and rendered harmless.
If i ever run into that asshole that ran that abc story, I promise I will kick his ass. Complete utter traitor. Libby goes to jail, this jerkoff will get a pulitzer.
I feel ya Matt, but your President, not so much.
And so he can blow me.
I’m really beginning to like Biden. I’m also really beginning to like Gibbs. The Keystone Kabinet is shaping up pretty well too. Hilarity will ensue. Trust me on that one.
tea bagging?
Drudge is linking NPR saying J. David Souter is stepping down end of term in June.
Re: Souter and the Specter defection.
Post-Kelo, I don’t think it would much difference even if Barky replaced Souter with Leon Trotsky.
Replacing Souter will be another step towards calling things what they are.
Sdferr, good links, as always.
That’s pretty funny right there Jeff, though besides a guffaw, I won’t be holding my splitting sides seeing John McCain’s house-trained pooch is still on that committee.
Heh. Joe is really growing on me. Souter is an asshole though.
Lindsey is an unrestrained cockwatcher is what’s interesting about Lindsey. He really knows how to size a fella up.
Can’t disagree with the narcissist part, but I’ve got to suspect he surrounds himself with imcompetents because anyone with half a brain wants no part of his administration. I mean really, he’s doing the best he can. He goes looking for a VP and the best he can find is Biden? Half his cabinet are con men and tax cheats and the other half haven’t been nominated yet? It’s starting to look like no one wants Obama cooties.
All dick all the time. It’s a wonder you get on memeorandumb.
To compare Gibbs to Baghdad Bob is to insult the latter. At least Bob was funny, and told fewer lies.
What is it with the name dave? Do midwives look at the shriveled wee humourless bairns, the ones with that “sookin’ on a toalie” expression, and say “Dave. Yup. Name that one Dave.”?
Daves, every blog has one. Dime a dozen.
Methinks that socialism professor prolly doesn’t want to look at the best seller lists down here in our dirty little country. His German friend might have sold a thousand copies of Marx, but that doesn’t seem to be what our own downtrodden masses are turning to.
