7. Now if Gibbs had followed up with your statement, that would have been the best ass-kicking ever!!

11. LOL ...... oh how I wish ...

I am no fan of this "bi-partisan" effort. They are lying obstructionists who have been waging war against us since Newt first hit washington. They show no signs of future co-operation either.

We won this election by a landslide and it is time we started acting like it. We became compliciate in the crimes of GWB because we were too "politically correct" to meet force with force. This false form of civility is nothing more than intellectual pride.

We need to FIRMLY oppose these republican bastards. To do anything less will only encourage them.

9. Slapped his sorry ass down

Go Robert, you the Man. I like this face, if you will, that President Obama has put on this Whitehouse. President Obama will go far
He'll be remembered like w couldn't ever envision.

Add: that was a thing of beauty right there

12. I think we left a few months ago the adage that

if it was good for a derivatives trader it was good for Main Street.
That was the line of beauty. The decaf comment was the classic punch line.

10. Screw Santelli.... He'll turn his back on his neighbors, but his co-workers get bailed out.

It sounds like he judges a man on whether he punches a time clock or not.

I have a righty friend who carps endlessly how he shouldn't pay taxes on his market earnings because he "takes all the risks, so he should enjoy all the profit". When the chips are down he and Santelli both look to the govt to underwrite the loss.

13. This is a classic. This is what a total smackdown looks like

Robert Gibbs rocks!

14. QUESTION

couple of weeks ago Obama told NOPers to stop listen to the gas-bag limbaugh

now Gibbs takes on the mouth-foamer Santelli

will they sic Biden on Coultergeist next?

are we seeing a White House that will fight back? If so, send whatever they are drinking at the White House over to Reid and Pelosi. Juice up the congress dems
