Bambi Goes After Jim Kramer
Jimmy Carter-style malaise is back, thanks to the greatest destruction of wealth by a president ever:
But not to worry, press secretary Robert Gibbs makes it clear the administration is on the case:
To hell with investors, they only make up half the population. Only Gibbs could be bland enough to express such arrogance without sending the country into an incandescent rage.

Gibbs and Obama are going to learn a very nasty little lesson: What is good for Wall Street is good for America! That wealth that they crave to get their hands on to the point of insanity, is in Wall Street. If they chase it out of the country, destroy it by policy, and tax it out of existence, then it will not even be there. It certainly will not be there for them to use as a lever to accomplish their madhatter goals.
If the industries (and that is what Wall Street is) that create jobs and wealth in this country are not in this country anymore--why should this country have even a fraction of the current standard of living?

What is amazing about this spat is the Cramer is a Democrat and supported Obama. Cramer woke up and realized what was going on and spoke out very loudly. This spat, also, showed that Gibbs and Obama do not have a thick skin and will play these petty games with media figures. I hope they continue these immature barbs. It just undermines the White House and empowers the media to keep dumping salt in their wounds. Good job, Obama, keep it up.

Very good point, FL. Folks of the extreme Left-wing are often very thin-skinned... this should be interesting.

(in which I do not quote verbatim)
"I don't know...what house Mr. Santelli lives in..."
"I don't know what Mr. Kramer's back up for past statements is..."
I'm seeing a disturbing pattern of vague, open ended accusations from this idiot (who, if possible, makes me crazier than his feckless boss). I. Don't. Like. It. And just when in the Hell are these clueless dorkmuffins going to remember that 3% "wasn't a mandate!" in Feb. 2005? Why the Hell is 4% in 2009 an excuse to purchase a vellum proof mobile shredding unit?

I often wondered why Cramer would support A marxist clown like B Hussein Obama. Congrats to him for having the balls to admit his mistake, albeit far too late. Gibbs is doing his best to distract Americans from his boss' destruction of the economy, and it's working, thus far. Last poll I checked had Obama at 63% approval, which is sickening to the core. Wake up America.

Gibbs' downfall is going to be spectacular. Stay as far from the podium as you can if you don't want to get splashed when that tub of goo hits the fan.
When you look up "smarmy" in the dictionary, there's a picture of...

So Gibbs says that the Obama Administration wants to reinstitute an economy that works for everyone.
When in all of human history has there been such an economy?
The Obama Administration is getting very used to saying things that sound good, but are plain stupid and they really dont mean what they say. They are just words... kind of ironic isnt it?
Take for instance his B.S. about reregulating the economy, even though it was the Democrats that were against reregulating the GSEs.
"Obama Lied, the Economy Died!!!"

Just when you thought no one could be more clueless and smug than Scott McCullen, out waddles Robert Gibbs.
So what's the BO/Gibbs laughing point going to be when unemployment hits 20%?
Maybe: "Some people will just have to use soup kitchens; we prefer to take a wait and see position."
This guy redefines creep.

What a complete ... F'ing ... idiot Gibbs is. When he gets a hard question, he giggles like a little boy and proceeds to utter a long, inarticulate, meandering line of drivel. What an embarassment for our country.
He's no Tony Snow, that's for sure.
