I never liked White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs. I always thought he was pretentious, mean spirited,  and arrogant . His job calls for him to be a conduit to the world and  today he displayed a lack of class that seems to epitomize this administration.

His childish, puerile swipe at Sarah Palin from the podium was not funny and actually insulting to a lot of people. Perhaps the erudite and most educated Robert Gibbs never wrote a note on his hand before an event like Sarah Palin did, but lots of people do.  I guess we are all just idiots to him and this administration. Perhaps in Rahm Emanuel’s world we are all just F***ing retarded. Well I hope they keep up their elitist insults to the American people because the November elections are just nine months away, and  the clock is ticking on this gang.  I actually think they are scared to death of  her. What do you think?Here is his smarmy attempt at humor that falls flat. What a classless boob!

Last night I was watching JayLeno when the ubiquitous John McCain came out as a guest.  Doesn’t that guy have a real job? I am stunned by how glib and happy our former republican standard bearer appears. Hey buddy, you cost us the white house, and the country is going down the tubes! You lost, so get off the stage and stop trying to act like you are the presumptive senior spokesman for the party. Heck in my opinion , he dragged Sara Palin down !

To add insult to injury, when asked who the leaders of the republican party are today,  he listed four without once mentioning his running mate Sara Palin. What an ingrate! Such colossal bad manners and lack of tact come from someone with an incredible ego. Perhaps he wasn’t our best choice, but he was all we had.  Clearly there are those of us who held our noses while voting for him in the hopes that Sara Palin could bring him to his senses.  But now to spurn a running mate who gave her all ,and inspired the audiences like he never could is unconscionable. I saw Sara Palin twice at rallies. I never would have gone to see him . My college age children also went to see Palin because she inspired them. He didn’t.

 So while McCain soaks up the limelight and adulation of comedians and press sources who like to see him agree with Obama, my advice is this:  think back on how lucky you were to have someone like Palin in your corner. You would have gone down in flames without her. And by the way, you are not that funny.
