Why Obama's image doesn't match his record

Al Neuharth, USA TODAY "An example of Gibbs' media shortcoming occurred Sunday on Face the Nationwith Bob Schieffer on CBS. In answer to a question from Schieffer about the Gulf Coast oil mess he said, "The government is doing everything humanly and technologically possible to plug the hole 5,000 feet above — ar — 5,000 feet below — the floor —below the ocean." Gibbs appeared amused rather than embarrassed by his answer. Every president needs a press secretary who is adept not only at answering questions but also at anticipating them. Obama suffers because Gibbs is better at dealing with politicians than he is with the press."
