You actually have no idea what this thread is even about, do you?
I do and the Pelosi is leaking out of you, IMO. In the Berwick case he had never been discussed in committee and, in fact, the chairman had not even scheduled that discussion. Don't blame Republicans for that.

Do you think that is true? These people seem to know something.

Video - Gibbs Gets Testy With Reporters Over Controversial Recess Appointment Of Berwick

What more do these pathetic clowns want? They complain, but they have 59 democrats in the senate, and a super majority in the congress, and a president from their party..... when the hell will any political party get all of this laid at their feet again??? And these guys act like ... <snif> ... it just ain't enough, only 59 in the senate, the presidency, and they have an insurmountable majority in the congress Oh... the humanity of it all
Wapasha !!! ...

Indeed this man appears to be acutely worrisome and exceedingly sardonic ! Not quite what one would expect to fill the important role of Press Secretary.

Unfortunately this man fits right in with HO and his entire "Not Quite Ready For Prime Time" WH Crew !

From watching the "Grand Media Secretary" on T.V. for some time now, it appears that he may succumb to a major mental melt down at any given moment when pressed for a straight answer to questions regarding any major issues.

There are so many peculiar folks involved in HO's WH Crew ! ..... Perhaps we should not be surprised at all by the dopey actions of yet another of it's charter members !!!

Thanks / Old Sgt. lamar

california-jewel !!! ...

You are absolutely correct !

Indeed ..... What were some Americans thinking when they voted for this tragically inexperienced Jr. Senator and community organizer for the highest political office in this nation ???

Rather were they thinking at all ?

We are all absolutely "In For It" during the next two years !!!

Thanks / Old Sgt. Lamar

I'm not blaming anybody for anything.

Republican will play politics, and Obama will play back.

I am hopeful we see another 100 such recess nominations before the fall.

I already did. You even responded to it. Anterograde amnesia?
Guess you're not the sharpest tool in the shed.

If you are talking about Berwick, he was not being blocked by republicans because his hearing was never even scheduled, Gibbs was clear as a bell, 0bama is simply a whiny, ineffectual little *****. They knew Berwick was such a bad choice that they bypasses normal channels for fear that people would see another Marxist appointee from 0bama.

Dude, I started the thread, I think i know what it's about. Its about a bunch of whiny, petulant democrats in the 0bama administration, and a whiny, ineffective president, who complain they can't get anything done thru normal channels, even with 59 senators from their side of the isle.

i asked the question "what more do they want?" What more do democrats need to ram thru their unpopular views, and unpopular administrative appointments?

Presidential administration can only dream of controlling both houses of congress with an overwhelming majority in the congress and 59 or 60 senators, and 0bama and Gibbs whine like they are in a statistical minority.

I think what we are seeing here reflects the polls that show only 20% of Americans define themselves a liberal, and we have a liberal administration finding it difficult to ram thru policies and views which only appeal to 20% of the population.

Talk about the pot calling the kettle black.
Let's all read that first post again and tell me who sounds like a whiny, ineffectual little *****.

I think they want the conservatives to quit throwing themselves in front of the wheels of any measure to help get the country back on it's feet again.
Sacrificing their country for political gain.

I'm glad you're actually watching videos of the people instead of just taking someone's word on it.
