Robert Gibbs has some issues with the imagery being attached to his boss lately. He must not have been paying attention during the last eight years. I'm sure there is some evidence of Gibbs speaking out about the imagery when it was used against President Bush, right?
You hear in this debate, you hear analogies, you hear references to, you see pictures about and depictions of individuals that are truly stunning, and you hear it all the time. People — imagine five years ago somebody comparing health care reform to 9/11. Imagine just a few years ago had somebody walked around with images of Hitler. Hopefully we can get back to a discussion about the issues that are important in this country that we can do so without being personally disagreeable and set up comparisons to things that were so insidious in our history that anybody in any profession or walk of life would be well advised to compare nothing to those atrocities.
It sucks, doesn't it Mr. Gibbs? While you and your ilk were giggling at the hate being spewed by the Left, and telling us that dissent is the highest form of patriotism, did you ever question the way in which that message was delivered?
Or did you just start paying attention on 1/20/2009 when your guy became the target?
Over at Huffington Post, they have a slidshow of the "12 most offensive signs at Bachmann's Tea Party".
I wonder if they'll put these signs that the Left carried around about Bush for a comparison of what the definition of "offensive" is.
