I for one will miss the Gibbs-meister. He was a never-ending source of amusement.

That’s too bad, he’s good for comic relief as Press Secretary.

He’s already had the PC twit role in the MacIntosh commercial. Maybe he’ll do a reprise. The Apple bigots will get all jittery at the thought and scream like little girls.

I used to use Apple....until I met some guys who used to work for Apple. The whole green Jeep thing & worship. Vvvvvvv. Creeped me out.

Selling woman's lingerie seem like the only thing he might have expertise in.

Might be the only place to find a job after his boss gets done.

How many trillions of dollars are WE going to spend helping these thugs campaign for the next two years?

You just got to laugh at some of this crap.
What an insult to fire and pit bulls.
