1. I love....

how he bats them down so gently.

[Karenina]

4. He's a Southern GENTLEMAN.

2. After putting up with "Deer in the headlights" Perino, Gibbs is INCREDIBLE!

I would hope that my opinion of him would be just as good on his own merit, but shit Perino was bad!

The asshole reporter needs a good slap. "The era of YouTube" my left testicle.

3. Opposing this nomination is even more political suicide for GOP go ahead GOP latin americans look >

at 'em funny already. Gon on keep chasing those votes away the Limbaugh party strikes again.

5. Judge Sotomayor's sentence right after she said what she said

about policy making from the bench is "I'm not promoting it; I'm not advocating it..."

why is context so fuckin' hard for these whores and presstitutes?

He made April Ryan look like the idiot, know-nothing, koolaid drinking hack that she is.

[Fedja]

6. Easy

Outrage, even if constructed and false, sells better than reason and context.

[Canuckistanian]

7. "..even if I can't convince some of the people in this room..."

Obviously a swat at the reporter who asked him that STUPID followup question.

And that was AFTER his long, eloquent and knowledgeable answer to that reporter.

Jesus man, Gibbs answered your question. Just accept your shame for asking it and move on.

8. That was a horrible response! He needs to listen to the way Sen. Schumer responded to this:

He simply noted that following the comment (appeals courts are where policy is made) she stated that she disagreed with that. End of discussion.
