All partisanship/politics aside, Gibbs has to be the worst press secretary I’ve seen in a long time. He’s easily rattled, can’t think on his feet, and looks a lot like Randy Quaid’s character in Parents:

(uh, it’s a horror movie, btw)

Naw...he is the gift that keeps on giving!

He does a great job for the $170,000 he gets paid. </s>

To Gibbs defense, every time he's in front of the media he is forced to tell some of the most outrageous boldfaced lies to back up his stooge of a President. I mean, Gibbs is just a puppet and a horrible liar. He's pretty much Baghdad Bob-you knew he didn't believe what he was saying but he had a gun to his head making him move his mouth.

Gibbs is truly representative of what he is representing. His responses are the best he can do with what he has functioning behind him. Given what he has to work with, he's doing the best he can. I'd quit, and right now if I was him. Personally, I feel sorry for the guy.

Remember Didi Myers who was Clinton's press secretary? Remember that shortly after she left the position, she was picked up on a DUI? Look what she was representing! Look what Gibbs is representing. Placed in that position, could you do any better that Gibbs, given what you had to defend? He's done an admirable job so far, but he's standing on a row of dominos. He can't win, and the longer he stays, the more damage he does to his name and career. Watching him fumble at the hands of Chip and Helen Thomas, I truly felt sorry for him. I know this doesn't gel with what I felt in the past, but I wish him well. What I just saw convinces me he is about to bail.
