Thoughts of Obama From Bama

Week 108: Obama’s Propaganda Czar Hits the Road

Pack up all your dishes
Make note of all good wishes Say goodbye to the landlord for me
Sons of bitches always bore me

Throw out those L A papers
Moldy box of vanilla wafers
Adios to all this concrete
Gonna get me some dirt road back street

If I can just get off of that L.A. freeway
Without getting killed or caught
Down that road in a cloud of smoke
For some land that I ain't bought bought bought
If I can just get off of that L.A. freeway “L.A. Freeway” Jerry Jeff Walker

Week 108 finds the “Yes We Can Triple the National Debt In Three Short Years Redistributors of Wealth Financial Wizards” currently infesting the White House busier than the proverbial one legged man at an ass kicking contest. Completely mishandling the regime change in Egypt and the issuance of their literally record shattering deficit and debt 2012 Budget pretty much sucked most of the oxygen out of the room during the course of week.

Flying under the radar in comparison was the resignation and departure of one Robert Lane Gibbs. Obama Propaganda Czar, White House Press Secretary, long time senior Presidential suck buddy and ultra liberal arrogant elitist political hack.

A man who truly mastered the art of diversion; misrepresentation; the non denial denial; plausible deniability; no comment; blame W; demonized opponents; absolutely a total absence of ethics, integrity and/or shred of class influencing his words or deeds; a say anything political shock jock the truth, facts, and morality of a situation be damned; and a revolutionary true believer like his close friend and Comrade Barack Husain Obama working towards and advocating a Marxist/Socialist transformational change in our structure of Governance and private sector capitalist economy and open society.

Another radical left wing hyper partisan Obama faithful who was so disagreeable, devious and just downright obnoxious his departure has been enthusiasticaly welcomed by the equally hyper partisan radical left wing Obama adoring White House Press Corps.

For one so highly placed liberal with the ear of the President and 24/7 access to their exalted progressive champion of the victim class the media elite’s disdain for Obama’s propaganda boy is really quite remarkable. A strong indication of the low esteem, lack of trust, dislike and disrespect the media, fellow White House political hacks and public developed for the young Mr. Gibbs.

A genuine bonafide ultra liberal political protégée Gibbs experienced a meteoric rise in the Democrat party at a young and tender age. A review of his upbringing, formative adolescent years in the rural south, and early career certainly provides some insight into how this wayward son of the South ended up taking such an extreme and radical turn to the political left.

Consider the following milestones in Comrade Gibbs Marxist/Socialist indoctrination:

• Born and bred in Auburn, Alabama
• Parents, Nancy and Robert Coleman Gibbs. Liberal political activist, rumor has it they were actually KGB operatives
• Parents introduced young Bobby to left wing groups including ACORN and the ACLU
• Gibbs attended Auburn City Schools and graduated from Auburn High School where he played saxophone in the band and goalie on the soccer team which was thought of as a communist sport back in the late 1980’s in the small college town home to the SEC Auburn Tigers where football is considered a religion.
• After graduating Bobby spent the summer visiting Moscow, Beijing and Havana allegedly to attend soccer camps
• Gibbs went on to graduate from a superb southern institute of higher education, North Carolina State University, with a B.A. in political science and Russian Studies and a Masters in Obnoxious, Elitist, Boneheaded Behavior
• Gibbs started his radical left wing political career working for Alabama Congressman Glen Browder. He later joined the staffs of several other liberal Senate Democrats, did a stint with the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee before taking the position of press secretary with ultra liberal head case John Kerry's 2004 presidential campaign
• Gibbs joined Barack Obama's 2004 U.S. Senate campaign as communications guru and the rest is U.S. Socialist Party history

With his bleeding heart liberal extreme left wing credentials and pedigree firmly established Mr. Gibbs quickly became a member of the President’s exclusive inner circle, was appointed White House Propaganda Czar, and assumed the role of the public face of the Administration conducting daily press briefings at the White House. Reckon he was a communications wizard behind the scenes because his public persona revealed a shallow, vindictive, ultra partisan, dishonest, evasive, thin skinned gaffe machine.

Bobby boy sure enough could be counted on for a few daily whoppers and misstatements only Veep Uncle Joe Biden could rival. As a tribute to his public service following are several of Mr. Gibb’s most memorable remarks:

• In response to Sarah Palin’s Facebook note about “death panels “you reporters cover a lot of process and you cover a lot of — you cover noise and heat and light” – Condescending to say the least
• “The stimulus saved or created three million jobs“– Classic propaganda tactic. Say it loud and often and hope the masses start to believe it. The truth is irrelevant
• “President Obama is not a Socialist.” See above
• A reporter asked if Ahmadinejad was “the legitimate president of Iran” and Gibbs responded that he was “the elected leader” – Damn straight Bobby, the epitome of a free democracy
• “President Obama is not a Muslim” See above
• Gibbs responded to Dick Cheney’s remarks that the U.S. was less safe under Obama than it had been under Bush by quipping, “I guess Rush Limbaugh was busy … so they trotted out the next most popular member of the Republican cabal.” - When you’re the White House Press Secretary remember your southern upbringing and respond with class and show a little respect for the former Vice President. There is no excuse for behaving like your tacky Yankee pals
• “President Obama does not advocate the redistribution of wealth” – See above
• Mr. Gibbs attempted to spin VP Biden’s infamous “closed container” remarks on swine flu into a handy health advisory. Jake Tapper called him out for not saying anything “remotely close to what Biden said.” Gibbs’s response? “I understand what he said, and I’m telling you what he meant to say.”
• “The President hasn’t had a smoke now for over six months” – Yea right, Hillary looks good in a mini skirt too
• To summarize, in only 108 weeks the caustic Gibbs declared war on Fox News; insulted our strongest and most important allies the Limeys and Israel; accused fellow democrats who remarked about Obama having similarities with W should be drug tested; less than 10% of the time provided direct and honest answers to reporters’ questions; had no comment, lied, refused to answer, deflected a question to other officials, unjustly blamed W for their screw ups on over 5,400 occasions and just like their annual deficits and national debt have shattered all previous records by a country mile

It’s high time for Mr. Gibbs to catch the L.A. Freeway, take a right on some dirt road back street, head down that road in a cloud of smoke and pull a D Day – “Where abouts unknown“ for the rest of his natural born days. Trust us, he can sleep like a well fed recently changed fat baby at night comforted by the knowledge his propaganda machine misinformed, led a stray, brainwashed, deceived, hoodwinked, falsely accused, and secretly exploited hundreds of millions poor dumb pilgrims from the tip of Maine to our southern most California border with Mexico.

Not a bad record of achievement for a no count white trash tragically misguided cracker we are sad to say is a fellow southerner from Auburn, Alabama who for damn sure should have known better.
