You expect this type of arrogance from the President, but from Bob Gibbs?

We have come to expect the President's condescending attitude towards anyone who opposes his freight train to socialism (remember the "get out of the way and let me clean up the mess" speech?) and his gloating, smug smile anytime he gets his way. But, to have Press Secretary Robert Gibbs - that Alabama country bumpkin who has to be the worst liar on the planet - throw sarcastic barbs takes the cake. From politico.com: “Understanding that what [Republicans] got out of the health care thing was virtually nothing, I think they may think twice on financial reform. There’s certainly ample evidence that their 'strategery' needs a little reform.” Hey, Opie - did you forget that your boss took over a year to get healthcare passed with clear majorities in the House and the Senate (at least, until Scott Brown was elected) and had to resort to reconciliation, the Louisiana Purchase, Cornhusker Kickback, Florida Gator Aid, the Stupak Executive Order, using water to drought-stricken counties in California as a bargaining chip, and who knows how much arm-twisting, with all of the major media outlets in his back pocket and after repeatedly lying to the American people? So let's not get too cocky, shall we?
