White House Press Sec. Gibbs on Wanda Skyes' Limbaugh Joke

[luv4knowledge]

If you can't handle stand-up comedy you can't handle life.

[rapitroy]

LIiberal Democrat= screwin' everyone, because it's for their own good.

Liberal Democrats= We know whats best for all whether the majority likes it are not.

Liberal Democrats= We're out of money... no problem we'll print more.

[Biafrans7]

Republican "party" = Criminal Corporate Capitalism and Ignorant Racist Classism

[MrExnihilo]

Well, there he is. Little Robby Gibbs, pretending to be a real grownup.

How cute!

[unograduate]

Rush isn't holding his tongue about the new administration, why should Wanda hold hers about Rush!!! Free speech is a beautiful thing. I loved Wanda's performance.

[silvershocker123]

She went out of line. She is funny but way out of line for any sort of audience. And about the kidney comment she was waaaaaaayyyy out of line and any sense of intelligence. Although Rush goes out of in almost all of his shows he does with an audience who welcomes that sort of thing where by he is justified but for Skyes to say something like that to a general audience at a very public gathering is simply ignorance and idiotic.

[mavrek47]

silvershocker's RepubliCON STIMULUS:

~ CRAIG: A return foot-tapping under mens-room stalls

~ LIMBAUGH: Free LIFE prescription for Oxy-Contin

~ W & SCARAH FAILIN: Each want 1% of Scare-Crow's Brain

~ COULTER: Get Adams Apple Removed

~ CHENEY: Keep Unilateral Contracts & Face Shootings Legal

~ NITT-WITT-MITT ROMNEY: Continue flip-flopping on ALL Issues

~ FOLEY: Return e-mail from teen boys

~ BOEHNER: Buy a better color of face-tan from Avon Rep

GOP GOAL: LOSE DOZENS more Senate & House Seats!

I think with Wanda Sykes it's a case of "well, you knew who you were asking for, right?"

She's not the type to soften her message just because she's in the company of wealthy and overly-sensitive Democrats.

I think she was also counting on the fact that the Obama Administration can't really lash out at her lest they look like a bunch of censors...

Wanda Sykes is a black lesbian - she's like a consolation prize for all of us whose civil rights are still be ignored by the White House...

[mavrek47]

A very BAD case of the shits is SMARTER than Flush Dimbaugh.

W, Cheney & Flush are the MAIN reasons why RepubliCONs lost 55 Senate & House Seats in a 2 year period. Dumb-shits!

~ Obama's ties with Ayers = 0 Dead

~ W's ties/lies with Iraq = 4300+ Dead & 100,000 Innocent Iraqi Civilians AND hundreds of BILLION$ spent unnecessarily

JAN 20 2009 - THE END OF AN ERA...I MEAN ERROR!

THE ROAD TO HELL IS PAVED WITH REPUBLICANS! ~ Scarah Failin

R.I.P GOP! HOW IS LIFE IN PERMANENT EXILE?

DETOX FOX!

[Dallouez]

Rush shoujd sue that "nappy headed ho" and give the money to our troops. Just like the millions he made over their last public lies about him! GO RUSH!

[ibilldavis]

self hating white

[ohkeepa2009]

search the OBAMA DECEPTION

stop the New World Order

know the truth

wake up!!!

[nohealthcare62]

Whats so Funny about 500 American dying every day all because they can NOT Afford Health Care No Matter How Cheap they make it ! TAX ME OBAMA like the FRENCH and give me LIBERTY !!

[RVTrack]

tax you and give you liberty? you don't know very much about liberty, do you?

[IKLIPTIC]

move to France where you belong then don't change this system because you want to be hand fed and babied.

[chadhub]

but where would the french,canadaian and european go when there turned down or put on loooooong waiting list for care. in the eu no more cancer treatment if your cancers to far along. and taxing isnt liberty its slavery. heck the french are saying hes going to far wiht tax and spend read everyonce in awihle

[badooga]

I don't agree with much of the spin that Gibbs utters, but he's trying to distance the Messiah from Syke's unclassy performance at the WHC dinner.

As for Limbaugh, I love the guy; he has a few faults (like the rest of us) but is a good entertainer, pretty funny, and usually spot-on with his insight. I'd be proud to be associated with him.

Limbaugh has Messiah's socialist mentality pegged and says the obvious every day, which is why he has so many tens of millions of listeners.

[darkchocosinger]

yeah hes doing such a good job by pushing all the moderates and independants over to the Democrates. He can have his 14 million hardcore Republican listeners. Last I checked that wont cover one full state. Thanks Rush keep em comin.

[eightbitgnosis]

Gibbs sucks ass at basic explanations. I've known 5 year olds who could get more information across than him

[sk8bow]

rush limbaugh is a complete idiot that is the opitome of the republican party views. all they can do is complain about minorities, finances, laws, and the world. it's like they think they are perfect and innocent from any wrong doing. open your eyes republicans!!!!

[RVTrack]

open your eyes to a dictionary. it's "epitome"

[phoenixar]

who the fuck cares?? it has no weight on policies that MATTER

[jadovyjbarbitur]

DAMN, SO COOL !!!

[jewshmu]

Obama's laughter shows his talk of new politics is false and I can promise you McCain or Romney or even Giuliani would not of responded in such a partisan way

[rodzmen1]

President Obama has been putting up with the neocon smear machine for a long long time. I think it's about time he laughs at something that is so true. Funny but true. Rush Limbaugh is a puke. Chicken Hawk puke. Who runs from war because he has a boil on his ass.

[dapdaddy10]

Dick Cheney is a klan member.

[Docthewrench]

he wouldnt be allowed

[shera818]

Maybe Obama was just reflecting with laughter.

[y2knoproblem]

What's wrong with you peeps. You think 9/11 is something to laugh about or use as a political tool to persuade a country to go to war with other countries that had nothing to do with 9/11?

[KornWasCool]

It sure worked for the Bush admin.

[xjlmt]

What a chump. Where did they find this loser, anyway?

[KornWasCool]

he was in charge of running Obama's campaign.

You know, the most successful political campaign... ever?

[xjlmt]

It wasn't really much of a choice; the Undercover Brotha or McInsane and his trusty sidekick (who can see Russia from her bedroom window).

[WKaliberr]

Yao Ming

[pumasporvida]

And at this point...where our country stands, his failure would mean the failure of our once great nation..so even if he minces his words, the outcome or meaning is the same.

[pumasporvida]

What is all the hype? Her comment was funny as hell!! He ACTS like one, since it is his statement that he 'wishes USA to fail'...

[eksdem]

WHEN did Rush say he wished the US would fail?

I heard him say that he hopes Obama fails to carry out his agenda.

[SkyDaddy7]

Right...If Obama fails with the economy in the shape it is then the US fails. That is exactly what Rush wants so the GOP can come back with their failed policies and not have to change...That is not going to happen!

Obama will suceed and Rush will fail!

[rickamabob13]

Wanda proved my point about Rush.

You can't spell Limbaugh without 'laugh'.

[dasupa666]

Gibbs will never answer a single question, he dodges ever question he is given. I challenge you to find one press meeting where he actually has a valid answer. Its just one big joke to Gibbs.

[rickamabob13]

Search Dana Perino on YouTube. You remember Dana?  The Bush administration's Queen Of Spin.

[imaginepeace63]

Dana reminded me of Reese Witherspoon doing legally Blond

[SkyDaddy7]

Considering some of the stupid questions he is ask no wonder...I know you are having a rough time adjusting to the new America but you will...After 8yrs you will see what a true leader can do!!

[dasupa666]

keep dreaming shit ball. Obama the puppet is going to change America? News flash moron...he works and answers to the same people Bush did. This change you speak of is going to enslave you,me and every other American for generations to come. Wake up and see through the Left Vs.Right dog and pony show Washington puts on every day. You don't know very much do you? Do you really think he is going to change things for the better? Its a big ass show and idiots like you bought it hook,line and sinker.

[SkyDaddy7]

Obviously you are uneducated and know little about American Political Science and therefore you are reduced to NWO type thinking...I feel sorry for you and hope you eventually learn about your government so you do not have to live a life of fear spawned from shear ignorance.

[dasupa666]

what the fuck ever you retard ,para-handy freak.You live in dream world you agnostic little socialist bitch. You must have a dildo permanently attached to the seat of your wheel chair.

[rodzmen1]

I'll bet that's what was attached to Cheney's wheelchair. That's why he had that shit-eatin grin on his face.

[SkyDaddy7]

Spoken like a true American Christian! Like I said you speak from a position of little education and knowledge of your own country...The bright side is those who think like you have been booted out of office!

Good Luck dealing with the world you simply do not understand!

[masaokis]

Rush Limbaugh and the Republicans remind me of Jigsaw. He wanted to torture people and make them suffer so that they would appreciate life better.

In a way, the GOP wants to do the same thing. No social security, no welfare, no trade unions, no free healthcare, etc. Make people suffer as much as possible to get them to work hard for themselves. It's the same principle as Jigsaw.

If John McCain had been elected, everyone in America would eventually have been placed in one of those machines

[tombstonetom]

The freedom of speech applies equally to Limbaugh and Sikes. This is America. God Bless America.

[almamatters2471]

wow, the press can't ask enough questions about what a comedienne said, but when it came time to question the lead up to war, they were silent. bunch of schmucks in the American media. What a joke!

[eksdem]

Obama is not only a sadist who laughs at the thought of pain and misfortune being inflicted on others...

Obama has no class.

[lordcron]

Wow thats the biggest lie if I have ever seen one! It's you republicans who have no class. You come out of the woodwork like roaches trying to put down Obama but wait..... See.... It's you who put America in this fucking situation isn't it. Your fuck buddy Bush is the biggest fuck up of them all isn't he.... Shhhh I'll answer that for your... Hell yes! As long as I live I'll never let you bastards forget who put America in the poor house. Now you got all the answers? Please fool! Fuck off!!

I was not always a Republican.

I was a liberal until Clarence Thomas was skewered by politicians and their cronies in the press.

I'm ashamed to say I voted for Carter two times.

[SkyDaddy7]

WHATEVER!!!

[pumasporvida]

The person with no class is Limbaugh.... if he exhorts his right of free speach(his is usually hateful) then a comedian has the right to give out hers....

[dizzymasekela]

Limbaugh, the leader of the GOP, is an anti-American pill-head pedophile. It's patriotic to wish his kidney's fail.

[SupportingMyself]

Hijacker? When did the government get the power to decide if they highjacked anything or such. Oh wait...this is the 21st century. Were the bankers control everything. Got it...got it...

[CREWCHIEF299]

Wanda Sykes is a looser I dont even see how worthless person like that can make it on TV. O yea and About the drugs comment why doesnt she take a piss test I think she was strung out on ssomething herself.,
