Does she want his conscience to bother him because he won't answer the question? Or because she wants the public option and is advocating for it in her position as a neutral, just the facts, reporter?we
Helen Thomas is right this time. Will Obama actually fight for something he says he wants? Or will he continue to enunciate broad principles while Congress makes him look like a jackass?
Of course he's weaseling...as every Presidential press spokesperson (or whatever the title is) does. They cannot put themselves into the position of asserting a definite position if there's a chance the President will accept something less or changes his mind or fails to achieve his goals.
By definition, anyone willing to do this job is a weasel.
Would that all White House reporters pressed every White House spokesperson as diligently about every question of moment to the country.
Nobody who looks as homely as Gibbs should be that smug. He is extremely lucky that, with the exception of Garret of Fox and Tapper of ABC, every other reporter in the room wants his boss to be their boyfriend.

Good lord can you imagine bumping into that old crone in a dark alley?
And can Gibbs sound more like a pussy when he giggles?
Gibbs has no conscience. If he did, he'd find different work.
Gibbs reminds everyone of a character in a hit movie. It's his poor fortune that it's "Flounder" in "Animal House."
But a pathetic, waddling girlie-man is the perfect spokesman for this pathetic, nutless administration.

"Mistaking yourself for my conscience again, Helen?"
OK, I probably couldn't have come up with it on the spot either.
VW: noboor. A good rule for future press conferences.

As if.
The White House reporters are weasels themselves.
I'm not sure which is more quease-making: Ted Williams' frozen head or Helen Thomas' live one.
Tony Snow was a classy weasel.

Dana Perino managed to seem non-weaselly.
And to have much bigger balls than Gibbs. There's probably a certain freedom in knowing that your boss is hated.
