Too bad I pretty much agree with Gibbs on this statement.
The White House was on the defensive Tuesday after press secretary Robert Gibbs lashed out at liberals he dubbed the "professional left," saying some of them should be drug-tested.
Gibbs contended that some progressives critical of President Barack Obama wouldn't be satisfied until the Pentagon was eliminated and Canadian-style health care ushered into the U.S. Some of them wouldn't even be happy if anti-war congressman Dennis Kucinich were president, according to Gibbs.
I think many of them should be drug tested and will probably come up positive. Also they cannot be satisfied no matter what Obama does. They are against Guantanamo but have no idea where to put the terrorists held there. They don't want Hellfire missiles fired at Al-Quida even though they have no better way of handling them.
Most of them live in academia where the only contact they have with companies that create jobs is trying to hit them up for grant money. They only see regular Americans only when they fly over them. So in their insular, protected little worlds they think Obama is George W. Bush because they never have to see massive failure in handouts like in Greece, run a company or a country, or deal effectively with Al-Quida killers.
So they go against the closest thing they will ever have to a progressive President. Also after the bungling and ineptitude shown by this President they may never have another. I mean they need to understand that they are 20% of the population and they need get at least 50% on board to even have a chance at any of their schemes. The whole idea of them getting anyone more progressive than Obama is crazy so they should be okay with the guy they have now.
