The ONE's Press Secretary
« on: May 20, 2009, 10:32:24 PM »
I didn't realize until today that The ONE's Press Secretary, Robert Gibbs (or who I like to refer to as 'Dilbert') is from Auburn; his parents worked for Auburn University according to teh Wikis.  He apparently went to NC State by the way.  Just an observation; wondered if any of you local X'ers knew him?

Interesting, I didn't realize that.  On a side note, I don't know him, nor do I care too!   :thumbsup:

Neither do I.  He is really terrible at his job but then again everybody has been awful since Tony Snow was Press Secretary.  He was the only one who could put that crab Helen Thomas in her place (usually by simply ignoring her).

Anyway, I had heard a commentator mention that Dilbert Gibbs was from Auburn which prompted me to check teh Wikis.
