| Who has really gone "well over the line," Rick Santorum or Barack Obama? Former White House Press Secretary and current campaign adviser Robert Gibbs is alleging that GOP presidential candidate Rick Santorum went "well over the line" when he questioned Obama's Christian values. Gibbs told ABC's "This Week" that it's time to get rid of this mindset in our politics that, if we disagree, we have to question character and faith." See here. If Robert Gibbs really believes that Rick Santorum went "well over the line" by merely questioning Obama's so-called "Christian virtues," he must then concede that Barack Obama... |

| STAFF SGT Calvin Gibbs, the ringleader of a rogue US army unit responsible for the "thrill kills" of Afghan civilians has been jailed for life, after a military jury convicted him of three murders.

He was convicted on 15 counts in all, including three of premeditated murder for his role in three killings in southern Afghanistan between January and May last year.

| Former White House press secretary Robert Gibbs lashed out against Texas Gov. Rick Perry on Tuesday, saying it was a remarkable turnaround for the Republican presidential candidate to say he was passionate about America just a few years after he was talking about the possibility of Texas seceding from the U.S. The current White House spokesman, Jay Carney, also took issue with comments Perry made on Monday, warning that political candidates have to be careful about what they say. |
Is A Certain Social Network Practicing Political Censorship? (Vanity)

| I use a certain large Social Networking site for most of the usual stuff; keeping up with family and friends and posting an occasional article which interests me. A few days ago, I posted a link to a Blog regarding the Obama Birth Certificate. Nothing offensive, just a story regarding what's been documented, what's been said and inconsistencies in the Obama past. The link had the normal amount of responses, nothing out of the ordinary. The next day, I signed on to my account and the post I made had vanished, comments and all, just like it was never there.... |

Robert Gibbs's last day at the White House

| On his final day as White House press secretary, Robert Gibbs was preceded at the podium in the briefing room by a distinguished warm-up act. "You could not ask for somebody better in the foxhole with you," the president said of his spokesman. In the foxhole. The president had, inadvertently perhaps, given an apt description of the past two years Gibbs spent in the trenches, fighting with the press. The White House press corps is weary of him, and Gibbs is exhausted. From the press corps, Friday's final briefing was not so much a fond farewell as a respectful leave-taking... |

| "And then somebody -- I don't remember who it was -- turned and said, 'You know what? What about Gibbs' tie? What about Gibbs' tie? That might look good.' And, frankly, Robert didn't want to give it up because he thought he looked really good in the tie. But eventually he was willing to take one for the gipper, and so he took off his tie, and I put it on. And that's the tie that I wore at the national convention." |

| Yesterday, Lester Kinsolving, WNDs correspondent at the White House Press briefing, asked the following question: What does the President think of the move of 20% of the states to require presidential candidates to prove with documentation their natural born citizenship status in order to be on the president ballot in those states? Robert Gibbs, Obamas Press Secretary refused to answer the question and successfully brushed it aside. Gibbs has always been an obsequious untrustworthy toady. His behaviour in this case is not unexpected. What is really disgraceful is the behaviour of the White House Press corp. Our mainstream media reporters... |

This is that 3 a.m. White House phone call, Palin said on CBNs The Brody File, reviving an image from the 2008 campaign. It seems that that call went right to the answering machine, and nobody yet has explained to the American public what they know ... and surely they know more than the rest of us know who it is who will be taking the... |

| The White House said Monday that the former ambassador President Obama sent to Cairo doesnt speak for the administration, even after he carried a message from Obama to Hosni Mubarak. The envoy, Frank Wisner, said over the weekend that Mubaraks continued leadership is critical in Egypt and that its his opportunity to write his own legacy, while the White House has suggested that Mubarak needs to leave power sooner rather than later. White House press secretary Robert Gibbs told reporters on Monday that Wisner is not an employee of the government and that he wasnt speaking for the administration when... |

| Though he is stepping away from the podium, White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs has certainly made his mark during his two-year tenure as the White House mouthpiece. (Gibbs will be replaced by Jay Carney, communications director for Vice President Joe Biden.) Besides his professional responsibilities as the go-between for the Obama administration and the press corps, Gibbs will also be remembered for his devotion to Auburn football, his mix of pastel ties and his Southern charm. (Of course, he wasnt always polite - who can forget the foot-in-the door moment in India?) In honor of his departure, POLITICO has... |

The candidates, according to Democrats familiar with the process, include two veteran party operatives who don't currently work at the White House: former Democratic National Committee spokeswoman Karen Finney and Doug Hattaway, who served as spokesman for Al Gore's 2000 presidential campaign and then for Hillary Rodham Clinton's 2008 quest for the Democratic nomination. Several internal candidates are also being considered, including deputy press secretary Bill Burton, deputy communications director Jennifer Psaki and Jay Carney, the vice president's... |

Specifically, Madame said, quote: This resolution is a fitting tribute. It is a great resolution. Please, read it again and again. Carry those names in your heart. Remember, each of these people because, again, a tragic accident took lives, wounded people in the expression of ideas.

Mark Udalls idea that the parties sit together, not separate, during President Obamas State of the Union address on Jan. 25. I haven't had an opportunity to talk to some folks around here on that. It's an interesting idea, Gibbs told reporters on Thursday. Maybe not having a physical aisle separate us would be a good thing as we talk about the state of our union, and that's everybody. That's not one side or the other. That's everyone. |

While it can be said this particular POTUS has never left the campaign trail in his first two years, the staff changes already being implemented shows the not-so-novel slogan of "change" doesn't apply to his favorite "dogs of campaign". Spokesmouthpiece, Robert Gibbs, has stepped down, announcing his intent to serve as private sector consultant to the Obama campaign. Also putting in his resignation is another high... |

| Nearly all democrats insist that anyone making $250,000 a year is wealthy. They have incited anger and even violence over the issue. Venture capitalist Garrett Gruener says "I'm rich, tax me more." Warren Buffett, one of the wealthiest men on the planet, say the rich should pay more in taxes. Never mind that the top 1% of earners pays 41% of federal taxes. Never mind that about 50% of the country pays no federal taxes at all.

Its being reported by John King on CNN right now that Gibbs wanted to be a presidential counsellor something hes been putting about for quite a while but William Daley, the new chief of staff, nixed this because he believed that too many cooks would spoil the presidential broth. So thats why Gibbs is out. Additionally, King reports that Valerie Jarrett, whose sole qualification to being a senior counsellor |

We haven't talked much about Nancy here at My Big Mouth, but that's no reason not to give her a swift kick in the rear on her way out the door. The thing that makes Nancy so funny is she's so earnest. Earnest people can be funny because they generally lack self-awareness. Nancy's hair could be on fire and she'd never notice because she's... |
