. . . to accept a position in the newly created Department of Snark. So, without further ado, let me introduce my successor, Robot from "Lost in Space."
GREETINGS! We acknowledge Jake Tapper of ABC News.
Mr. Robot, when I asked your predecessor about the administration's characterization of FOX as not a news organization, he stated . . .

The CDC says that the numbers of Swine Flu cases have already peaked, but the President has declared a National Emergency. Can you . . .

Mr. Robot, it's my understanding that the President went golfing for the 24th time since he took office yesterday. How did he fare?
We are going to give you a mulligan on that question. Ha ha ha!

Well played. Well played.
The Robot from Lost in Space will clearly be more ruthlessly efficient than Beaker–er, Gibbs. But, gee, those pincers look like they might hurt. Gibbsy, on the other hand, in his bumbling incompetence, always left the delightful impression that we could squish him like a big ol’ grape. Well, all things must pass…
Dude! I thought Gibbs is a robot…
Robots wouldn’t stammer as much as Gibbs. They’d just shoot bolts of electricity at offending questioners.
This post’s format is familiar; where have I seen that before?
The Glenn Greenwald sockpuppet one was a classic!
robots on MS Operating Systems might in fact stutter.
More than likely, they’d drive right off the podium and crash.
It will be a real breakthrough in science when we can get a robot/computer-based unit to talk with a human in natural conversation. Of course, 10 minutes later someone will teach it to lie….
Gibbs stammers like Jackie Gleason in the old “Honeymooners” TV show…
You ask him a tough question and he start with the, “Hammanah, hammanah, hammanah…”
Why can’t Dick Cheney hold his head up?
He can. Especially after unloading on Obama and his administration the other night…
Don’t tell me Dick shot someone with his bird gun again.
Hahaha.
touche.
