The thing about Gibb is that

The thing about Gibb is that he doesn't really have to be all that bright or poised, like Baghdad Bob, he just has to look like he believes in what he is saying.

Tough job! How would you

Tough job! How would you like to try to defend all the crazy crap coming from an amateur White House?

d1, come on man...

Think about what you just posted. Would you really take a job under a complete idiot and then take on the task to try and make him look good? you are more of an optimist than I, I must say. 

 P.S. I've made it a rule to never work for fools for not only do they not get anywhere, they ensure you don't either.

Gee...

Somehow I chimed  in with the majority.

Go figure.

Gibbs is off-the-chart

Gibbs is off-the-chart terrible.

I voted Other because I am starting to feel sorry for Gibbs

After watching Sean Hannity's segment tonight about Gibbs, it is clear to me that the Obamanistas consider him to be a mushroom.

They are keeping him in the dark and feeding him bullsh*t.

This coup has gone on long enough. The time to put it down is NOW.

Mushrooms eat waste in dark, LOL

Ohh that is a good one.  LOL. 

The entire Obama outfit and Congress should be tried for treason for selling out our ideals and directly undermining the long term life of the US dollar.  M-B

I've been ROFLMAO about the

I've been ROFLMAO about the choices here...bet you don't know which choice I picked...

I'm still laughing...I can't spit it out quite yet...give me a minue or two...

Still laughing...too funny....I love comedy....he takes the cake...

Not enough choices

I always think "glib, smartass" whenever I see or hear him. Then I went to see what the dicttionary said. Didn't have smartass in there but I already knew what that was but glib fits him to a T.

1 a: marked by ease and informality : nonchalant b: showing little forethought or preparation : offhand <glib answers> c: lacking depth and substance : superficial <glib solutions to knotty problems>

Not to mention, Glib and Gibb is awful close to just be a coincidence.

Doug... Glib,

Doug...

Glib, smart-ass-cute by half POS.

I just had too add in a few of my thoughts here....

I feel better now.

Gibbsy

Gibbsy is going to pen a tell all book of how bad it is and the media will claim that it is not worth the paper it is written on and he too will go under the bus. Time not sunlight shows all that is see-able.

Famous Gibb Quotes:

"Ah . .  .Ah  . . . . Ah"

"And again"

Everytime he says "and again" I want Jake Tapper to yell out: "when did you say it the first time?"

 

We must also consider that Gibbs is part of the distraction ruse

Just sayin.'

ahh...mmm..ahh..... mmmh....I have to get back to you..... ahh...mmm..ahh.... mmmh.... a better name would be The Artful Dodger! The man cannot even put a coherent thought together!

sucks

a big Z-, this dude is almost incoherant

It's the Narcissism

It's hard to believe anyone could be worse than Scott McClellan, but Gibbs is just that bad. I think the Bamster knows how bad he is, and he is okay with that, because being the pathological narcissist that he is, he wants to surround himself with people that make him look good. That's also why Joe Biden was chosen as running mate.

Other

Unfortunately I can't give a grade lower than an F.

§ Miz, Bal...SEE!!! Polls are LACKING!!

I agree with you...

 Ohhh...

LOOK AT MY POST BELOW!!!

SHOCKING!!!

What do U guys think of my IDEA??

Respond?

Ster.

My mind is a raging torrent, flooded with rivulets of thought cascading into a waterfall of creative alternatives.

The more interesting question is...

Does Gibbs know how bad he really is or does he believe he's doing a good job?

Other

I can't comment on this because I really don't know. I'll ask around and get back to you. Next please.

Check with the Whitehouse

....and get back to me on that.

/A-- Seriously, he's doing a great job as Obama's spokesman.

E would be the appropriate grade

for Entertainment not an A

Gibbs personifies the incompetence of the SOBama administration!

 

Simple

Give the man an "ah"

I went with Other because

I went with Other because there wasn't a category for sycophant, and otherwise, the scale didn't go low enough. Can't the Pres give this poor dweeb at least a poorly functioning teleprompter? He has been hung out to dry with increasing frequency. Let's get used to this.

 

I chose "other" because...

..."Z" wasn't an option.

Gi, Gi, Gibbs!

Gibbs needs to request the Teleprompter Obamessiah to get a prompter for himself! Than he could be just as articulate as the one, providing of course that the operator doesn't get ahead of him!

I voted "Other", because I

I voted "Other", because I don't believe you should comment on things you haven't experienced.  I know I may be considered as having my head in the sand, but I haven't watched one press conference or read any articles containing direct quotes from the White House.  I always wait for the nightly news to come out and spin what was said in the direction the White House determines will get the best reaction after the fact.  I don't think anything this administration says really counts until it gets through this filter.

"An appeaser is one who feeds a crocodile, hoping it will eat him last."  - Sir Winston Churchill

His press conferences

His press conferences amount to garbage in, garbage out.  In the real world, Robert Gibbs would get an F.  But in the new world where Obama's thugs in the educationally deficient NEA do the grading, he gets an A+.

"Socialism is a philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance, and the gospel of envy, its inherent virtue is the equal sharing of misery." -Winston Churchill

Give him an A, Seriously

his job is two fold:

One to represent the WH to the media and he does seem very representative of those in the WH staff.

Two is to maintain a good relationship with the media and since the media are still pretty much orgasmic over everything the administration does I would have to say he is doing this very well.

It may be true that he is excelling at his job through no qualities of his own but that isn't the point. The point is he hasn't done anything to cause the media to turn on the administration, assuming that is even possible.

A person may be won over with logic and reason but the masses must be bought with spectacle and platitudes. - 2008 Elections

INCOMPLETE

"Required class, without completion of assigned work grade will change to "F" in 30 days."

puppet on a string

"F-" just like the rest of the "show,"

Like just about everyone

Like just about everyone else in the Obama administration (including Obama), he's an incompetent oaf.  The whole thing is a surreal kid's cartoon.

Damn....he looks like the Family Guy....Peter Griffin.
