Heated White House exchange

White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs got into a heated discussion with April Ryan, of American Urban Radio yesterday. Ryan was questioning Gibbs about those stupid annoying party crashers and the role that the White House social secretary played at the party. He got annoyed and belittled her. She shot back.

He made a good point at the end, stating that they should get back to more important things, "like 98,000 men and women in Afghanistan" True, but I think they use the war as an excuse when they don't want to talk about a subject.

"How did those party crashers get into the White House?!"
"Why are we talking about this, there's a war going on!"

"Why is the President keeping Bernanke on?"
"Why are we talking about this, there's a war going on!"

"Will sending 30,000 more troops to Afghanistan speed up the completion of our mission there?"
"Why are we talking about this, ther.....oh..."
