Gibbs's lie was so deep, I had to freeze frame so you could see exactly what Obama said about the surge in 2007. He's one smug, flippant jerk too.

dissimilar to Obama's unwillingness to support the surge in 2007.

Reid's "War Is Lost" comment was the democrat strategy for derailing Bush's war efforts. Obama refused to sign his name to funding the surge as well.

So----he neither supported the, "surge", nor would he support funding it.

Reid---a pathetic little dweeb. And one who is soon to be on th erecceiving end of the, "War Is Lost" when November 2010 arrives.

Those dedicated to Truth will understand clearly what has occurred.

Those NOT concerned about Truth will NOT.

Those "reporters" employed by the lamestream media (Legacy Media, Liberal Media) will NOT understand it for another reason as well. They've neither been trained for, nor do they practice asking the tough questions.
Incisive questions.
Probing questions.
Questions which may need to be asked repeatedly to someone who obfuscates, deflects, and outright ignores the question.

Gibbs has proven over the past 18+ months how inept he is. And, exactly who it is he is covering up for.
And Gretchen Carlson simply drills down on this behavior.

(Feckless dweebs such as, Estrogen Squirt would rather...

Murkowski's hesitation to concede just shows that she is a power jackal elite and a ruling class snob just like the libs! Good riddance and good luck to Miller! I want to be represented. Not governed just as the Alaskan's have chosen!
Maybe it will rub off in Minnesota this election!

smartest press secretary in the country's history! Gretchen made mincemeat of the fool. All the fool could say was it's the "fourth time" now it's the "fifth time" you've asked. Brilliant, Gibby, you're just brilliant, ain't cha'. ! This guy couldn't think his way outta' of a wet paper bag!

Listen you leftists in the White House, you had better wake up to the fact that we are not suckers out here like so many of your brainwashed minions.

We are the people who make this country move. Now let us do our work. Stop collapsing all systems. We are on to your Allinsky Rules for Radicals.

mission accomplished should have been the end of that mission, kill and evacuate. Let the dead bury their dead. After all, how many nations send troops or support to help the USA on 9/11? that's what I thought!

The White House press corps (or is that corpse) would be as pointed and direct as Ms. Carlson. "Gibbsy" thought he was still in his "power position" when he attempted his typical smarmy obfuscation.

At some point, we are going to have to enact the ability to hold politicians and sycophantic press secretaries accountable, with serious penalty, for their complete fabrication of the facts.

Forget about the "google" exercise.

All one needs to do is observe your lunacy to give witness to a complete fool. And then you compound this by making more of a fool of yourself. Geeeeeeeeesh.

Go to Google, select "video" and type "Gretchen Carlson." Pages and pages of her making a total fool of herself on national television.

"what's happening" if the teleprompter bent and hit his over the head...Of course, facts are so seldom present on his TP, one could almost understand why an empty suit bimbo looks like an idiot on a daily basis.

OK, let's assume that this imbecile is the best that Mr. Bojangles could come up with for press secretary and not just another attempt to humiliate those of us who still feel as though some sense of dignity is appropriate for the Executive branch - doesn't that of and by itself speak volumes about O-Boy's ability to judge the quality of people chosen to run the show???
All members of the MM should be forced to watch this video clip about 6 times a day to learn how to do their jobs - it filled my heart with joy to see The Smarmmeister lit up so effectively by the lovely Ms. Carlson.

Gretchen was just doing her job, which is to ask honest questions and report, rather than just lap up whatever Gibbs felt like telling her. Had it been Dana Perrino being questioned in that manner I daresay you'd have thought Miss Carlson wasn't being nearly tough enough...

Gibbs simply had no answer. Period. I can't say I don't enjoy it when some reporter knocks that smug, self-righteous look off his face, even if only for a moment.

Gretchen Carlson, are you kidding us? What a fool.

Only people who think that politics is a game of GOTCHA believe that this is a "lie." Obama and Gibbs said, have said, and are saying what is obvious to anybody watching what's happening. But if your little brains insist that everything get filed under 'black' or 'white,' I can see that you might not get it.

"But that wasn't enough -- Bush and the NeoCons got their war."

The vote was 296-133 in the House and 77-23 in the Senate for Iraq. What is your defense of all the bipartisan support?

A pissant like christian is unable to make sense or look at the truth straight. He has to distort it and argue about it. He hates the truth!

You and I, all of us would accept an alternative truth if it truly compromised George Bush and held up under scrutiny. But christian can't. He dreads all possibility that he might be a corrupted American citizen up to his neck in dishonesty. He's deathly afraid to relax and tell the truth.

You know that guy? The WMD inspector over there who found nothing? But that wasn't enough -- Bush and the NeoCons got their war.

And you scum don't want to pay for that even with taxes. Or do you? It's tough to figger out your flip-flop support for the troops.
