Caught few minutes of ABC evening news accidentally today. I could not believe when DS stated that former White House press secretary Gibbs threw obscenities at Obama's wife while he was in office. Has anyone seen this in news before? I don't have a link and don't think I misheard it.

DS also said some stuff about Michelle Obama feeling insecure and worried about her looks/actions thinking people were looking for wife of first black prez to make a mistake.

If this all is true, quite a mess in Obama's WH. Not a psychology expert but if all these reports are true, could the whiny dictator wanna be trying to compensate for some insecurities himself?

Thanks Davy for the link.


Gibbs, the president’s first press secretary, had an especially rocky relationship with the first lady and Valerie Jarrett, another senior adviser and a longtime friend of the Obamas.

After Gibbs worked to knock down a report asserting that the first lady had told her French counterpart, Carla Bruni-Sarkozy, that living in the White House was “hell,” Jarrett said at a staff meeting that Michelle Obama was “dissatisfied” by the White House response. Gibbs responded with an expletive-laden explosion, according to a copy of the book obtained Friday by POLITICO.

He's just a man, she's just a human. He's likely trying to do what he believes is best. I disagree on his methods and vision, but I don't dislike him as a person. The story here is Gibbs, not Barack or Michelle Obama.

You're right, he is just a man... who also happens to be to an opportunistic, spineless puppet.

Some black leaders had asked her to leave him when he was reported to be supportring war crimes in Libya but she decided to stay with him. To each her/his own.
But at least they are trying to enjoy their time in the WH with Alice in the Wonderland parties and mad hatter extravaganza kept secret from tax payers at the time of double digit unemployment in the nation.

For the record, I supported Obama for a short while before I got disgusted with his spineless opportunism and had a better gauge of his character.

SurfsUp, I'm no fan of either Obama but this was about conduct/actions and not about fashion sense/appearance. I think your post crosses the line and will distract discussion about policy/conduct.

I am still ticked off that Gibbs is gone , he was my morning entertainment . I loved watching him take questions , today he would say " I will get back with you " , next day he would say " I covered that yesterday ".
