Gibbs: If We'd Known About Conviction, Woman Wouldn't Have Stood With Obama

A Charlottesville, Va., resident who stood with President Obama would likely not have been asked to participate in a Rose Garden speech on unemployment if the White House had known she was convicted of prescription drug fraud charges in April 2009, Press Secretary Robert Gibbs said Thursday.

A Charlottesville, Va., resident who stood with President Obama would likely not have been asked to participate in a Rose Garden speech on unemployment if the White House had known she was convicted of prescription drug fraud charges in April 2009, Press Secretary Robert Gibbs said Thursday.

"Without knowing a lot, I would certainly say that had that type of information been known, I doubt seriously -- she would not have participated in the event here," Gibbs said at the daily press briefing.

This is by far the most inept Administration I have seen in my lifetime, and yes, I was around during the Carter Administration.

It takes 5 minutes to run a criminal background check on someone. The fact that they don’t do that for someone they are giving access to TOTUS is quite scary.

WHAT? You mean they don't do background checks on people coming to the Rose Garden and standing beside the President of the United States? What an inept bunch of meat heads.

Instead, she would be supplying Gibbels with his own hallucinogens.

There’s even less adult supervision in this White House than there was in the Clinton White House.

If she wanted some drugs, why didn't she ask Barky to dip into his stash?

The dems will drag out any riff raff to make a point.

Come to think of it, why would any decent person want to associate with Obozo?

It is truly amateur hour at the White House. Someone in the press corps ought to ask Gibbs if anyone has the responsibility to vet folks that get to stand next to the boy king.

I'd call it a huge gap in his Secret Service protection. How in the world could such a thing happen? Who is running that show now?

Many of us out here in the hinterland that cling to guns and religion HAVE been ready for YEARS!
Do you have a mobile guillotine?

We do.

Don't be too hasty there, Gibbsie. This must be some kind of misunderstanding. I think we need a prescription drug summit. Barry and Joe can sit out on the patio with her and pop pills while they work all this out. Cheers!

Do these clowns check ANYTHING before putting it out? It’s been 20 months and I still can’t believe people actually voted for this poor excuse for a man, much less a president. This doofus can’t even fill Jimmah Carter’s shoes.
