Rove: Robert Gibbs Thinks the American People and WH Press Corps 'Are Stupid'

[FutureStudy]

they are stupid. That's not news

[jdbohdan]

The reality is that it is disappointing. Only in that Obama is just keeping the political status quo and is performing no differently then previous administrations. Which In itself would be no big surprize if people hadn't believed so much that things could actually be different. As for Rove, Funny how political partys whip out the moral high ground when they aren't in control.

[educateyourself2000]

"Faux"bama got cought with his pants on the ground, pants on the ground, pants on the ground, Can't speek w/out a prompter, was for televised negotiations, before he was against it, Has light skin but no Negro dielect, pants on the ground. Lookin' like a fool with his teleprompter on the ground. what a "retard"

[Chibling]

rove is balding in a strange way

[0771mark]

The arrogance of ANY past administration has ALWAYS been like this. When has ANYONE seen an OPEN meeting besides what you normally see on the house and senate floors?? EVER?? Anyone?? Rove, of all people says the American people have a right to know!! Hahahahaha! The left AND right have there own agendas for the same thing...CONTROL over you! Wake up... This is a GAME for these out of touch ppl!

[rugger8541]

@0771mark the previous administration never made a huge deal of Transparency now did they? Barry did. and it was a lie.

[TandL12]

Whatever Roves shortcoming the point is Roves description of Obama is spot on. Any American who would rather throw rocks at Rove than hold Obama accountable for HIS promises represents the very problem with this country; stupidity and ignorance.

Rove is not todays problem; Obama is! But in defense of Gibbs, he is only lying and spinning the truth when his lips are moving; what a complete tool and perfect spokesman for this crooked administration

[dlmaniac]

You know it's rotten when even Rove can lecture Obama on ethnics.

[GennaSt]

Considering how far Rove misled TIm Russert and other reporters on Iraq AND it turned into an investigation where he denied any wrongdoing, he would know how stupid we all are, wouldn't he?

[rugger8541]

@GennaSt but the Iraq debate was open in front of all of congress. All of congress had access to all U.S. intelligence agency info. Healtcare was behind closed doors with no Republicans present.

[jakematters]

Obama is a liar. Just like the rest of them. Dirtbag politician. That's what he is. Obama can suck a fart out of my ass. And then blow it into Bush's mouth.

[themange59]

These people that are "outraged" about this (namely Fox News viewers) wouldn't be watching it anyway. Fox News viewers just love to be angry and afraid. Giving Rove airtime does just that.

[fishhead06]

"Arrogant"?  "Disingenuous"? "Dismissive"? Rove's capacity to avoid blushing is a wonder of nature.

[rufayel]

Taste it Rove, you treasonous fuck. Sucks when it happens to you doesnt it? You fat fucking slob. Kudos to Fox for continuing to put people on that have been completely discredited.

[cocobear33]

i guess it's just another one of obama's lies being brought out

[rocketman6464]

i love ths guy because liberals cant stand him!!.....that says it all for me. its simple. obamaturd called for c-span to cover the heathcare debate multiple times {7 or 8} while on the campaign trail. it now appears this will not be the case. hows that "change" and "transparency" working for ya??? lmao!!!!!

[classic7890]

TOTALITARIAN TACTIC NO.1: Avoidance distraction obfuscation. Avoid the topic by attacking any critics` rational synopsis. This distracts from the target, obfuscates and distracts from the main topic thereby avoiding possible embarrassing truths.

[HieiYYH2]

Rove do you want your Sith Robe now or later, your starting to look like Emperor Palpatine

[njcarlos1]

they're "dodging" the question because they're just making backroom deals with corporations to continue this plutocracy that has become 21st century America.

[jensen1901]

Rove is one to talk about transperency and arogace. He was the most secretive and most arrogant person who ever sat in the White House. And now he is an "analyst" on Fox? EVERY SINGLE THING THAT COMES OUT OF HIS MOUTH IS A PARTISAN SLAM. Because it is his job to boost the GOP, even if he has to lie to do it, and say bad things about Democrats. It is a JOKE that Fox treats him as any kind of impartial analyst.

[AccidentalDem]

Rove can't talk for all American people.

Some American people are against illegal

acts no matter how they are dressed up to look like.

[bigc028282]

"Transparency and change". Yeah right.

HOPE in one hand, BUSH in the other.

[lhooq21]

Hyperbolic responses always look fishy.

[voyeurdug]

He (Gibbs) answered, he said, "no." He DIDN'T say what they're saying he implied. C-SPAN covers everything that transpires on the floor(s)... and the last Congress had the same situation, but with the power positions reversed. Rove is stupid if he thinks anyone takes anything he says at face value.

[baronderothchild]

obama is george bush in blackface following rove's playbook.

[Pleblian]

For once, I agree with Rove.

The greatest part of the American public are stupid.

Rove made a fortune with that knowledge, he's just projecting.

[classic7890]

Gibbs is arrogant and dismissive much like his boss, and for good reason. The Totalitarian left are creating a Socialist empire and simply could care less if voted out of office because their bureaucracy will remain intact . EVERYONE know the GOP/RINO part will never repeal socialist deathcare, let alone the ClowardPiven motor voter law which will lead to the next step, Universal Voter Registration and the inevitable built in constituency that comes with it all.

[IAMtheNewWorldOrder]

wow-what the hell are you talking about?

"universal voter registration"

what? the powerful people want to take over our lives by forcing everyone to vote?

[classic7890]

@IAMtheNewWorldOrder Possibly. These Totalitarians are going to fine and jail you for not buying their Deathcare while at the same time exempting themselves from the very same law, so why not ?

[Pellegrino80]

Karl Rove, get a hair cut and wash your hair you look like a typical smelly RepublicTURD hippie...

[TheProgressistViewer]

lol, yes hippies were SO republican.

[Pellegrino80]

Majority of these RepublicTURDs don't have jobs and are all on welfare checks... (White southern hippies)

[alby711]

right.... southern hippies... thats it. lets blame the hippies! (sarcasm)

The fact is Obama lies just like the majority of politicians (especially from Chicago). Whats even more twisted is your branded a racist for speaking out against another puppet in the WH. So blame the republicrats or the demoblicans it doesn't matter because they're all one in the same.

[TheProgressistViewer]

Right, there on welfare checks, that explains why there in favor of abolishing and/or minimizing the welfare state. Open a book and read about the hippies and there ideology.

[Pellegrino80]

You read a book, I was being sarcastic...

[clnmike]

Boy, got to love the hypocrite in Rove.

[almamatters2471]

hell must have frozen over, because I actually agree with this scumbag.

[shoogie06]

Arrogance? Who's he to talk about arrogance?

[wnnw98]

Rove is talking about openness and transparency? Anyone who believes a word coming out of his mouth really is stupid.

[pakratmak]

Karl Rove rambling on Fox yet again- I thought that network was anti-abortion?

[tasais]

If you like Carl Rove or not makes no difference. Gibbs is treating us like we are fools. That should matter more than anything else. This health care bill is going to destroy America. Wake up people. Present administration or past there both the same. Freedom stealing lier's. They want your money and your liberty.

[kaysandesses]

"Gibbs is treating us like we are fools."

tasais, one-half of the people (voters at least) in this country are fools. They voted for McCain and his moronic sidekick Palin.

"This health care bill is going to destroy America."

blah blah blah blah blah. It will do no such thing.

[tasais]

Time will tell. Us debating it will do nothing. Thank you for your insight :)

[njcarlos1]

Might not destroy America but it'll force you to purchase private health insurance :D Looks like they're working on your side eh?

[kaysandesses]

njcarlos1, I agree that without the public option mandated health insurance leaves much to be desired. We'll have to see what the reconciled version of the bill brings us.

[PersonalJesus348]

Its a known fact

[KataVideo]

why isn't karl rove in prison?

[rugger8541]

@KataVideo because he never broke any laws. unlike Barry Hussein.

[nierderlan]

wow, his head is ENORMOUS

[Francebrasil]

What a disgusting individual!!!!!

[Daritto7117]

Carl Rove is a SNAKE. The Obama administration is far better in every aspect than the bush.

NO WONDER HIS WIFE DIVORCED HIS FAKE ASS!

[vallejoelgrande]

Rove: appallingly arrogant!

Faux News: deliberately disingenuous!!

Their lies: insulting!!!

The ones who believe their lies: too stupid!!!!

[jeremiahdrigg]

It is funny to hear him call this administration "arrogant". Kinda makes me think of the bush era.

[route99]

The American people are stupid if they believe this hypocritical garbage coming from Karl Rove. Althought if Fox News did want an expert on arrogance they did find the best one they could in Mr. Rove.

My question is when are we gonna have a MSM and a Democratic Party that's ready to call out this hypocrisy?

Maybe they think it's not worth fighting over because it's just Rove mouthing off. But that's how misinformation spreads and you get morons at town halls holding up signs about Fascism.

[RobertSeattle]

What next? Karl Rove gives Marriage advice? Hair care advice?

[kelseywall]

Turd Blossom needs to go back to doing what he does best. Sucking Satan's (Cheney's) cock.

[ensurePlus1]

by Gods grace... rove will have an opportunity to bring the republican party back to power. i am so sick of you liberal elitists trying to destroy my country. you all need to move to france or iraq if you think obama is good for this country. totally pathetic.

[dogstar7]

No, ensurePlus1.

You need to move to some dictatorship that throws out elections if they don't like the winner. You're totally pathetic, you sorehead.

[junkforkaryn]

@ensurePlus1 france or iraq? rather strange choices given the fact that rove sent your kids to die for nothing in iraq. Gods grace, indeed.

[killerbandit]

Karl Rove is giving us advice on governmental transparency?

KARL ROVE IS GIVING US ADVIE ON GOVERNMENTAL TRANSPARENCY!!!!

Next, we will find Hitlers secret journal outlining human rights.

[BigPurple121]

The irony of Karl Rove saying this is a little overwhelming.

[Riselikethetide]

Karl Rove giving advice about transparency.

LOL.

[RoseSkye]

Why would fox news hire Karl Rove if they are indeed "fair and balanced?" Why don't they hire Gore?

[IAMtheNewWorldOrder]

Come on Karl, the American people are kind of stupid-and you know this better than anyone.

[JoeJeffersonn]

@IAMtheNewWorldOrder

LOL its just you!

[boots920]

Karl Rove = Proven Criminal , total asshole what's he doing on Main Stream. (Propaganda)

[Chewy240284]

Keep on talking rovey. Nothing is gonna save ur soul.

[mathom78]

Mr. Obama's statement was naive inasmuch as it assumed the opposition party would act in good faith.

[bootpdx]

OH STFU ROVE. Your hero, Mr. Bush, told us all to go shopping after 3,000 innocent Americans died. At least Obama wants to make things transparent - and more to the point - IT'S NOT UP TO OBAMA. IT'S UP TO CONGRESS IF THEY WANT CAMERAS OR NOT.

[animeownage86]

As much as I want Rove to die horribly... he is right the White House thinks everyone is gullible and stupid. Obama is the biggest most successful con artist that has ever lived and will continue to be until people realize his bullshit promises don't come through or that they do just in a manner that horrifys everyone then you have to wait for the excuses and insults to run out then the shocking truth about him will be revealed and excepted.

[denniswilfred]

Thats too harsh a statement but i agree with your feelings on carl rove.

[dogstar7]

No animeownage86, it's not the White House who thinks you are gullible and stupid, that's probably everyone you talk to who feels that way if you are repeating the silly gossip who've repeated here.
