A reporter asks this simple question: “Can you tell us how much the President and First Lady’s ‘date night’ cost on Saturday night? And if not, why not?”
What follows is more than a minute of Press Secretary Robert Gibbs stuttering, stammering, and changing the subject.

“You probably have more researchers than I do!” Ah …. darn. LOL – can barely control my fingers I am laughing so hard. So much for reasoning and speech in the same sentence.
This president and his wife are not making many sacrifices. I thought this would be a new day when we all marched to the same drummer and we would all make sacrifices for the good of the planet and each other? I understand that they consider the world their oyster and they have hot sauce and fork ready, but don’t make it so obvious, Mr and Mrs Obama!
And yes, I lot count. uh .. uh… darn. I’d do better! So is this administration going to more brilliant and classier than any since the Kennedys .. uh, uh, uh… I don’t think so!
Gibbs looks skyward — perhaps for divine inspiration. Cant’ the guy just say he doesn’t have a clue. or is it that he doesn’t have a clue that he doesn’t have a clue. clueless in DC, now I’m scared.
Wonder if bama and the old lady took a swing around the statue of liberty just for laughs.
Disgusting- considering all we keep hearing from this phony is how we
all need to sacrifice in these tough times.
We are all paying for this little play date, and it makes me want to puke.
What a goofball. Is there anyone filling the suits in this administration? Bush might not have been the most articulate, but he was a straight shooter. I respect a straight shooter way more than this kind of crap. At least straight shooters let you know exactly what you are dealing with…I can never tell what the heck these people are saying…Pelosi, Reed and the bunch might as well just get up there and say…”I have nothing of substance to say, but I have to be up here, so what I say probably won’t match what we do later…but hey…who cares…we won…yippiee…all we needed was to get the media to sling as much mudd as possible about Bush and Republicans and an articulate charasimatic community organizer and oh ya…ACORN and we were in…oh happy day….when Barak walked…oh happy day…no further comment.” Why don’t they just say stuff like that?
Robert Gibbs… this guy’s a AAA-rated sack of shit. This whole administration smells like one big, rotting sack of shit. I’m moving the hell out of this 3rd-world, commuter-train-colliding, pedophile paradise as soon as my visa arrives in the mail. In just 20 years America has become a world-class hell hole. See ya later suckers.
Unbelievable. And I thought it was annoying when my teachers would say Uh… Uh… Uh… Its embarrassing to hear the most well respected and highly regarded press secretary in the world, who represents our country, talking like a child. He does this every single time he gets behind a podium. Whats even worse is when he talks over people. It’s so rude.
