Gibbs: "Have You Ever Seen Anybody Go To Such Great Lengths To Not Put Something Out?" (video)

Gibbs: Again, put the tax returns out. Put this whole thing to rest. Candy, have you ever seen anybody go to such great lengths to not put something out? And when you generally don’t put something out, isn't it because you’re generally hiding something?

"I've never seen anybody jump through more hoops to say, a, somebody is lying, but also not put out a document that would prove what the real truth is," Gibbs also said.

Hey, Gibbs...Tell us, again, just so we can make a real comparison...how much did Obama pay that law firm to keep all his records hidden? To what extent did Obama go to hide his past? Please address this with a real answer, not an accusation about someone else.

The way the donkeys are pushing this I’d be very surprised if they haven’t already snagged Romney’s tax records from the IRS (remember Craig Livingstone and the FBI files during Clinton? Remember the passport files during the run-up to 2008?)

I expect they’ve found something generally innocuous, but ambiguous enough that they can blow it up into an issue resembling a major scandal, that they have the outlines of all the ads ready to go, that they know exactly how they’ll prime the MSM into a feeding frenzy, and all they need is the release of the records in order to spring a completely fabricated trap.

And if Romney’s stupid enough to give them that rope, he shouldn’t be surprised if he gets hanged. Sure, they’ll harass him about hiding something, but all he has to do is read the comments above in order to know how to respond.

Now that you mention it, are all of Obama's school, passport, birth, draft and citizenship records still under lock and key?

My thoughts exactly. Obama has spent millions fighting lawsuits seeking pertaining to his BC. I truly have never seen anybody go to such great lengths to not put something out.

Romney is losing this battle. 3 weeks now dominating the race, and now the lapdog media will portray the Friday job report as a huge recovery sign.

This seems so absurd on the face of it. But wait a minute. Could it be that they anticipate a release of something they know they CAN’T release, something that will be embarassing, perhaps again the BC or the school documents or something we don’t know about yet, making this a setting up of a narrative to point BACK to. ie: “remember what THEY said when we wanted to see Romney’s tax returns.” Then they would have the arguments already made in the words of their opposition. Maybe this is a strategy for down the road. Or maybe they are just really crazy....could be both of course.

"The mind simply.....reels. These people are unbelievable."

Not at all. The Usurper knows that not a single republican has the spine to even mention his birth certificate.

Being called a racist by a marxist trumps their sworn oath to defend the Constitution.

Are we sure he's really not a mole for the Onion?

Laz,

I reviewed this thread.

There have been 48 posts.

Included a couple by the legend that is Lazmataz.

And yet...not a single dirty joke about the headline. Not even by you!

A sad statement. Used to be...more fun?

(Sigh.)

Perfect example of how the Dems know the "news" media will cover for them

Yes it is, and the corruption of the media into overt full-time liberal partisanship is one of the biggest problems facing America. It used to be somewhat subtle and low-key but now it's blatant.

“John Kerry’s Form 180” — how many times did he say he was going to release and we are STILL waiting.

They can get away with this because they know that no “reporter” in the complicit press will ask the questions we ask here.

Was thinking same thing. It's easy to spout off like this when you know you have a corrupt media in your back pocket. The thing was teed up for Crowley to slam home and she walked away.

Yeah Gibby I agree, why hasn’t Obama released his college transcripts and thesis..what is he hiding..and what did he write in that thesis? Im guessing he wrote about his hatred for America, whitey, and Jews..come on Gibbs, if Obama has NOTHING to hide he will release them

No they should not because that is exactly what the Dems want us to do. They want the focus on ANYTHING but this awful economy and we should ignore this and stay on message.

Ann Coulter pointed out that Clinton would not release his medical records.

Show us Hawaii’s microfilm of 0bama’s birth certificate! We’ll NEVER see it because it doesn’t exist. 0bama’s birth certificate exists in PDF format only! I think Alex Okrent had the original but he suddenly dropped dead a few days prior to Sheriff Arpaio’s second ‘0bama eligibility’ press conference.
