(Briefing)

[icwhatudo]

Wow, look at the labored breathing between sentences. Someone has told him about his “UGHH” problem.

Only 7 in first answer

[NautiNurse]

Congress critters handed over their spending ideas in envelopes?!?!?

Side note: Gibbs is dazzling us with his knowledge of layoff figures for individual corporations.

[HungarianGypsy]

I keep trying to promote the Obama drinking game, but no takers.

[icwhatudo]

Second question on economic package:

1111111

Each “1” represents an “Ugh”

[rightwingintelligentsia]

There’s not enough alcohol in the world.

[NautiNurse]

Awe inspiring that Gibbs talks about pink slips while wearing a pink tie.

[TalonDJ]

I keep trying to promote the Obama drinking game, but no takers.

No amount of drink will make me watch him talk on a regular basis.

[Doctor Raoul]

Take a shot of vodka every time he goes "UGHH"?

We'd all die of alcohol poisoning in the first 5 minutes.

The guy can't speak without a teleprompter, he's dumb as a rock.

Sam Donaldson on Stimulus compromise:

[jiggyboy]

OMG, somebody asked something like, hey, the Republicans are saying that Democrats are larding it up with pork, what do you say about that, and he says, Hah, I’ll bet there are a lot of those people getting laid off that wouldn’t call this bill Too Much Stimulus...

So pork and “stimulus” are exactly one and the same.

[Crawdad]

Gibbs is a typical Auburn grad. Roll Tide.

[icwhatudo]

Next question on economy/discussions:

1111111111111

Second part:

11111111

[peace with honor]

dumber than a can of worms

[icwhatudo]

On “specific plan” being on internet:

111111111

[Tarpon]

Smartest press secretary ever, isn’t that what it was billed as?

[willgolfforfood]

HA!

That is not the bipartisan spirit we need.

[Sig Sauer P220]

If its only 300, then it must be a brief briefing.

[NautiNurse]

Gibbs: "The real price tag is how much the package costs right now...but I'm not an economist."

Bet he's never played one in the movies either.
