Gibbs' Obvious Lie

This is priceless, and a perfect example of how the Obama administration tries to own both sides of the fence. Presidential spokesman Robert Gibbs made the observation that Sarah Palin is "testing the waters" on a 2012 Presidential run. Then, not a minute later, he tries to tell us that PresBo isn't thinking about the 2012 elections yet. Well, if PresBo isn't thinking about it, then why is his oficial spokesperson running off at the mouth about it?

White House press secretary Robert Gibbs predicted Friday that Sarah Palin is testing out a run for president by speaking in Iowa, comparing her upcoming speech at a GOP dinner with President Obama’s presence in the state in 2006.

Suggesting Palin might be "the most formidable force in the Republican Party right now,” Gibbs said he doesn’t “doubt” her ability to draw big, conservative crowds -- though when asked if Obama considers her a political threat, he denied that the president is “thinking” about the 2012 presidential election.

If the President isn't thinking about the 2012 election cycle, then why is Spokesman Gibbs talking about it?


Keep in mind that this doesn't seem to have been in response to a question. Rather, Gibbs decided on his own to discuss the matter. You'd think these guys would have learned by now that there are times NOT to talk about something.

So, because of Gibbs and his denial, we know that PresBo IS concerned about the 2012 Presidential elections... as well he should be.
