. . . between friends?
h/t: AllahP at Hot Air, who remarks,
Reminds me of the time Tapper coolly yet cruelly pressed Gibbs to defend Biden’s sub-moronic advice to New Yorkers about avoiding city subways during swine-flu season. There is, and can be, no defense here, and everyone in the room knows it. The point of asking is simply to make Gibbs look constipated — which, of course, it does. In fact, the best he can do by way of an answer is to mumble that The One wants a bill on his desk as soon as possible, an implicit admission that the White House is prepared to sacrifice all its gauzy promises about transparency on the altar of finally ramming this travesty through. But then, we already knew that.
UPDATE: Via Instapundit, there’s more, including the transcript from Tuesday, with Gibbs dodging a similar question.

Correcting a musical oversight.
Hand it to Gibbs though – he displays his complete and utter incompetence with dogged determination.
I think of the two (Gibbs ineptness or the Obama administrations lying about transparency), I am more surprised by Gibbs. Shouldn’t he be better at giving non-answers by now?
