Who was calling the teachers bill a "bailout"?
Edited on Tue Aug-10-10 05:26 PM by Hello_Kitty
Was it the Professional LeftTM or some other group?

Update: Turns out it's RWers who called the emergency bill a bailout, and yet Gibbs used that as an example of why he felt it necessary to lash out at the left. He created the false impression that progressive journalists and pundits were attacking the teachers bill.

6. It took them about 8 years after Ted Turner sold it, but right around 2009.
Hmm... I wonder what happened at the beginning of 2009....

5. He couldn't even come up with a timely example of the Professional Left(TM) dissing the President.
So he grabbed onto something John Boehner et al said.

8. Gibbs cited the bill being called a "bailout" on cable news.
As a reason for bashing critics from the Left.

Only it wasn't the Professional LeftistsTM calling it that.
