Mr. Bolden, please take your seat under the bus.

White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs said Monday that NASA Administrator Charles Bolden must have misspoken when he told Al Jazeera last month that one of his top priorities is to reach out to Muslim countries.
"That was not his task and that's not the task of NASA," Gibbs said.
Bolden, though, said last month in the interview that it was President Obama who gave him that task. He made a similar claim in February.
But Gibbs on Monday appeared to deny that Bolden was asked to focus on Muslim outreach at all.
He said he wasn't aware of Obama speaking to Bolden about his comments.
Bolden said in the interview that Obama told him before he took the job that he wanted him to do three things: inspire children to learn math and science, expand international relationships and "perhaps foremost, he wanted me to find a way to reach out to the Muslim world and engage much more with dominantly Muslim nations to help them feel good about their historic contribution to science ... and math and engineering."

Then I was:
"That was not his task and that's not the task of NASA,"
And then I:
appeared to deny that Bolden was asked to focus on Muslim outreach at all...
In any other administration, Brian Williams’ face would have twisted in half while reading this story.
Too much truth, too fast, Bobbie.
Betta backtrack....
“He said he wasn’t aware of Obama speaking to Bolden about his comments.”
This is a typical response from Gibbs. What’s implied is:
“I wasn’t aware of it, so it didn’t happen”.
B.S.
Seems Gibbs isn’t aware, period.
Lies, and damned lies!
If this had happened under Bush, this guy would have been forced to resign. Under the “New Regime”, we are told we heard it wrong, or, that’s not what he meant, or he misspoke. What the hell is going on in Washington?
Gibbs is sucha prevaricating catamite.
Obviously Bolden didn’t get the memo. Doesn’t matter what your marching orders really are; NEVER tell the truth since that will undoubtedly make The One and his minions look really, really bad.....and reveal them for the ruinous dolts they truly are.
“He said he wasn’t aware of Obama speaking to Bolden about his comments.”
Is Gibbs aware of anything?
I’ll tell you what’s going on:
The Food and Drug Administration is sending investigators to look into bicycle racing in Europe.
The FBI, meanwhile, snoozes while ACORN steals elections in the US.
And...the Justice Department will not investigate voter intimidation nor support removing the names of the dead from voter lists.
Got it ?
Mr. Bolden, please take your seat under the bus.
None of this will disturb the prayers of Obama’s disciples. . .
None of this will disturb the prayers of Obama’s disciples. . .
None of this will disturb the prayers of Obama’s disciples. . .
You can say that again!
Catamite.
You made me look up that one...
HaHa, Bolden spilled the beans. Slips of the tongue in a sentence do occur. Not in paragraphs. zer0 didn’t tell Bolden to not tell or Bolden is a true patriot and revealed the muslem’s true agenda. I hope its the later.
I believe it is an apt description of Gibbs’ principal function.
I believe you are correct.
This administration sounds like the Keystone Cops.
