I mean Mr Gibbs can't even name a country that is better.....


Even if Mr. Gibbs thought that there was such a country, he wouldn't name it. He could even be right, and politically/rhetorically it wouldn't matter. So I think that in some very real sense, this is just making a mountain out of molehill.

E.g., what happened when President Bush's people responded by naming a country where nuclear power worked? They said France, and rhetoric led to P-U. So Mr. Gibbs handled the question right, strategically speaking, even though it was a total dodge. That's part of the political game.
