12/9/10: White House Press Briefing

[cameron55543]

In my opinion bill Clinton was the best president in the 20th century. Other than the scandal he did an excellent job.

[WinterHaven]

The homeless go without eating. The elderly go without medicine. The mentally ill go without treatment. Veterans go without benefits that were promised to them. Yet the government gives billions in tax breaks to the wealthiest 2% of Americans--those who need it least.

[WinterHaven]

Mandatory health care insurance is a form of mandatory tax. If this is unconstitutional, so are Federal and State taxes, right? I think so.

[WinterHaven]

Thank you for signing HR 5566 to law. It's the best thing that happened all year!

[marcetclaude]

Gibbs is a Puppet

[neodana]

I work for the government, and if they would cut 10% of the waste I see on a daily basis and start working for the people we would'nt be in this mess. Our elected officials are put there by money plain and simple. The people who put them there basicaly control where our tax dollars go. The government needs wealthy people more than they need to help us. They think we are idiots and will beleive whatever they tell us to beleive. Naive people and propaganda keep things from changing. WAKE UP

[455gs1]

dont trust him, just dont trust him

@455gs1 Put not your confidence in man, but put your confidence rather in God!

Social Security needs to be overhauled!! There are unfair policies in the way money is paid out!!!! For example, there are many retirees in America who are receiving $3,000 a month pension, has $500,000 in their IRA. Then on top of that, the same person is receiving $2,000 a month in Social Security!!!! THAT IS NOT FAIR!!!! The SS money should go to the poor, and middle class that truely needs the money!!!! I do wonder, why aren't people standing up against this kind of corruption?!?!?

[poindexterwitkowsky]

WHAT CONSERVATIVE REPUBLICANS DON'T WANT YOU TO KNOW: When working class peoples' taxes go up, their wages go up.  This is called "WAGE INFLATION" The opposite is true when taxes go down for the working class.. When taxes go down for the wealthiest there is a sudden surge in the markets followed by a GREAT DEPRESSION. Examples of this: Great Depression(1929), Reagan and Bush Jr, era depressions. CONCLUSION: Higher taxes create prosperity, lower taxes create economic DEPRESSIONS.

[ClassicFIHD]

@poindexterwitkowsky "When taxes go down for the wealthiest" Where would taxes go DOWN for the wealthiest? They will either stay the same as they have been for the past 10 years or they will go UP. It the Tax Cuts are extended they will stay the same, if the Tax Cuts are NOT extended they will go up. THEY WILL NOT COME DOWN EITHER WAY.

[ekajeht]

America is in the worse shape since 1929 and these idiots are worried about obama's smoking!!!

[ashkanlion23]

Who the fuck wears a striped pink tie? Only an ass pirate like Gibbs.

[jablackdiamond]

@ashkanlion23 real mature, real mature

[ashkanlion23]

@jablackdiamond I can say these things because I'm four.

[Ian7570]

Obama caved on EPA regulations as well? That's shocking.

Oh sorry, I meant expected rather than shocking.

[bucklerfoxton]

Gibbs is a corporate fat cat shill like his boss, Oblabla! Go eat some more pork fat Gibby, your face isn't quite Pilsbury doughboyish enough yet!

[edgarsterling]

Gibbs is one of the pigs from "Animal Farm"

[VPcandidateElst2012]

Compromise is good in its own light. Irregardless of what "either side" is so caught up in to save political face it is the American people that suffer in this battle of debate, instability and the continued lack of distrust gained from continued promises that have been made and are broken with gestures thrown toward readressing issues at a later time......Through experience in our lives and in reflective view of politics we know that "later time" is in reality only a gentle dismissal.

[MiggityMar]

@VPcandidateElst2012 If you buy into this bullshit, you're basically helpless. Perhaps you should read the definition of the word "facade".

[cmfluteguy]

"A rising tide lifts all the boats."

These idiots in the Obushma White House all believe that lifting the boats makes the

tide go up.

Obushma is a republican and Gibby is too.

They ALL are in the White House.

[DFM3333]

Where is the press conference? Gibbs needs to get a personality

[FromDimmuLand]

I want to see Gibbs and Obam got into the Gulf and take out a shrimp and eat it , UNCUT version..

[bugsz1]

Anyone else fall asleep during this video?

[FancyPantsElitist]

the "uh's" are uncharacteristic of Gibbs. I don't believe he's LYING, but I think he'shaving trouble with this one.

[Josephdaz1]

All the room they have and they take these sardines and put them in a tuna can.

[OpenInsanity]

Fuck Obama. Fuck Gibbs. Fuck Axelrod. Fuck Summers.

Coward-ass bitches.

[bigpanda128]

@OpenInsanity You seem to be forgetting the important public service that Robert Gibbs performs.

[Migueria]

If you feel like something is wrong in the Western World... that things are going the wrong way, check out some of the videos i have placed in my upload section. They WILL offer you a new, better perspective on things, one that you will most likely not hear anywhere else. take 1h of your time today to get in touch with issues that affect the entire wolrd, especially Europe and the US. Do not stand idly by... get informed, and get to work on solving the problems. Cheers.

[elfornse]

Just cut the Tax Rate to Zero Percent for EVERYONE and let's be done with this whole Government Nightmare once and for all. Freedom!!!!!

[idrobinhood]

How about it news anchors grow some balls. Oh, wait there's some women, oh no your all women. Get some balls news media. Nothing but cut throat corporate propaganda for what, the stock price. Media values are zero.

What happen to the DEATH Tax will it remain at 0% for the next two years as well???

[Sallyakerti]

thank you.

[scrapdaddy811]

I never thought one moron could bring so much entertainment to so many.

[bsharker]

NIGHTMARE Act. To the Dumbocrats. the illegal aliens became 'undocumented aliens' ~ then became ~ defacto Americans... can I get a WTF?

[MinhKhai1]

Democrat is a party of NO

[theDerailled1]

@MinhKhai1 u got that backwards LOLOLOL

[Stonehawk]

yes we can? no... no, we can't -_-

[mrodney39]

I think that the democrats are stuck with the expectation of getting everything they want with out compromise. I also feel that there are people in the republican part with the same views but with the open minded expectation of getting something done without hurting americans as a whole. Usually those who want something so much without focus usually lose focus of getting this tax cut deal done. I see people who are out for them selves without think of others there are levels of self this isnt it

[PostToastie]

I never actually watch videos from this lousy site, I just like to look at the first frame and think about what I would say to that ugly Gibbs Homo..

[PostToastie]

Hey You White House, Ha Ha Charade You Are.

[EcrossH]

What a pony show. Let ALL tax cuts expire. IF Republicans don't pass unemployment benefits, that will destroy them.

If none of you monkeys can balance a budget as a collective body, then it's high time we start voting YOU ALL OUT and start voting new, non-corrupt people IN.

We Americans ARE FED UP WITH CORPORATE CORRUPTION DESTROYING OUR GOVERNMENT AND WE *WILL* VOTE YOU F*CKS OUT!

[NewWaveFan1]

@EcrossH the problem is people don't realize if we vote them out maybe it will get better they are too scared to.

[MAJIKVEGGIE]

Why do they call it a briefing?

[PostToastie]

@MAJIKVEGGIE

I guess it's like calling a really big guy 'Tiny'. lol

[bd1965]

all poppy cock nonsense.

[floatingcompassmedia]

sound?

[patricblack1]

@ whitehouse I would watch the video but it's way too long. Peace.

[smallvile1992]

WHY is the thumbnail always the same???

[patricblack1]

@smallvile1992 I've noticed that as well.
