Gibbs Field Dresses Santelli

The guy on Wall St is complaining about accountability? Is he serious?

Robert Gibbs gives CNBC's Rick Santelli's rant some needed perspective. Nothing in Obama's proposal to keep 9 million people in their homes would help speculators, people trying to flip houses, or those who bought a house they knew they couldn't afford. Yet another out of touch CNBC host who can only hype the nonsense on his teleprompter.
"I'm not entirely sure where Mr. Santelli lives or in what house he lives," Gibbs said during the daily briefing. "But the American people are struggling every day to meet their mortgage, stay in their jobs, pay their bills to send their kids to school, and to hope that they don't get sick or somebody they care for gets sick that sends them into bankruptcy. I think we left a few months ago the adage that if it was good for a derivatives trader, that it was good for main street. I think the verdict is in on that."
