Rec if you think Obama should throw Gibbs out on his turncoat butt.
Normally, I hate posts like this, but I'm so pissed right now I don't care.

If you think Gibbs should be gone, show your displeasure by reccing this post.

2. Why should Gibbs be fired for reflecting the President's opinion?

17. Yes, if I never see that dickhead Rahm again, I'd be happy
I didn't expect miracles from the Obama administration, but I expected them to at least be left of center. Jebus, was I wrong...

4. Gibbs only repeated what they think. Their actions have proven it over and over again
he shouldn't go, he's a fine representative of what they really think. I hope he keeps talking because we have a right to know.

7. Absolutely not. He is only reflecting Obama's opinion.
We may not like it, but the Spokesman is speaking for the White House. That Obama has not remarked on this speaks volumes.

25. I think Obama needs to relieve Gibbs of his duties because
today Obama signed an important piece of legislation. It should of lead every newscast tonight. It should of helped the party.

Instead it was barely mentioned because Gibbs is undisciplined and self-centered. As angry as we are with Gibbs I guarantee you that Obama is more pissed. He probably sent Gibbs home for the day.

The W.H. is really trying to focus on the midterms. They know they have a lot of work to do to hold seats. I guarantee you that the W.H. heard from some House and Senate members today screaming "This isn't helpful - stop pissing off our supporters. Put a lid on him". The same sort of thing they privately said to the W.H. when Gibbs said the Dems might lose the House a couple of weeks back.

Its not Gibbs' White House - its Obama's.

28. Why fire Gibbs? He just spoke what many in the administration believe.
