Robert Gibbs is going down by the bow at the second Obama Administration presser.

When asked about the missile strike in Pakistan by one reporter, Gibbs stunned ther reporters by stating, "This Administration is not going to comment on ongoing military actions." After a short silence, the reporter asked, "You mean we won't get any comments on our military actions under Obama?" to which Gibbs repeated, "Not at this time. Next question."

To the question about bi-partisan support for the next bail-out package, Gibbs replied that "whether it passes with any Republican support or not, all people will remember is that we did the right thing."

Question: why is this admin not using the term War on terror? and what about the CBO saying that any bail-out won't be spent until after 2011?" Gibbs: "The President prefers to use the word 'challenges' instead. As to the CBO statement, they misspoke and it doesn't give Obama credit for his promise to act within 140-180 days."
