I THOUGHT WE WERE "USEFUL IDIOTS"

Back in February, Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel called us liberals "fucking retarded" and we don't get much love from Press Secretary Gibbs (h/t Atrios):
The press secretary dismissed the “professional left” in terms very similar to those used by their opponents on the ideological right, saying, “They will be satisfied when we have Canadian healthcare and we’ve eliminated the Pentagon. That’s not reality.”

Of those who complain that Obama caved to centrists on issues such as healthcare reform, Gibbs said: “They wouldn’t be satisfied if Dennis Kucinich was president.”

Gibbs should have gone full winger and called us all a bunch of Marxists.
