Fleischer: WH press secretary needs ‘to be careful’ about taking ‘a slap at a political opponent.’

On MSNBC’s Morning Joe today, former Bush press secretary Ari Fleischer condemned current Press Secretary Robert Gibbs for naming Rush Limbaugh the leader of the Republican Party, saying that he needs to realize “how much weight your words have”:

FLEISCHER: You know, you really have to be careful when you stand at that podium cause you don’t realize until you are in that unique job how much weight your words have. And when you previously as a senators secretary or a party’s secretary, press secretary, could dismiss or take a slap at a political opponent. When you do it from the White House, you’re bring the weight of the government on to that private person. So, you really have to be careful about it and do it with some grace. Going after Rush Limbaugh, it’s just to me, the usual nonsense.

Watch it:

Fleischer’s warning of the need for carefulness shouldn’t come as a surprise, considering that his words from the White House podium have brought down “the weight of the government” on a private citizen. In 2001, Fleischer was asked about a controversial comment in which Bill Maher said that the 9/11 terrorists weren’t “cowards.” Fleischer responded by saying that Americans like Maher needed “to watch what they say, watch what they do. This is not a time for remarks like that; there never is.”

Transcript:

BRZEZINSKI: Ari, if you were standing at that podium, would you have not taken the opportunity to do what they are doing to Rush Limbaugh?

SCARBOROUGH: Let’s say, would you have gone after Michael Moore?

BRZEZINSKI: You really would have passed that up?

FLEISCHER: You know, you really have to be careful when you stand at that podium cause you don’t realize until you are in that unique job how much weight your words have. And when you previously as a senators secretary or a party’s secretary, press secretary, could dismiss or take a slap at a political opponent. When you do it from the White House, you’re bring the weight of the government on to that private person. So, you really have to be careful about it and do it with some grace. Going after Rush Limbaugh, it’s just to me, the usual nonsense.

    Yeah, republicans are the only ones allowed to intimidate from the oval office.


  2. lokidog says:

    How typical is this of the gutless right?

    They can dish it out but cry like simpering, whining little b*tches when it’s given back.


  3. raynman says:

    You know, I really think these guys don’t realize that everything that they’ve said in the past was recorded. They act like the last 8 years never happened.


  4. mk3872 says:

    HYPOCRISY ALERT! Fleischer is out there making the rounds these days and he is completely relying on the ignorance and stupidity of the MSM to let him get away with whitewashing his legacy.

    While I like the example TP put here about Bill Maher, let us all not forget about the way his boss and their WH went after MoveOn.org for and ad against Gen Petraeous.

    And the new line that he is dutifully rolling out as the GOP spokesperson is that the WH is drumming this up.

    Gimme a break! The GOP leaders bow down and gravel on hands & knees to Rush. The GOP made Rush an honorary congressman!

    BTW, he cannot even bring himself to say Democratic party. It has to be “Democrat” party. Sounds like Limbaugh in there to me!


  5. IgnoranceIsNotBliss says:

    I really cannot stand Ari Fleischer. That’s all I have to say about that.


  6. The Republic of Stupidity says:

    Right… now THAT was a threat from the WH, not what Gibbs said last week to that phony twit Santelli.


  7. telestai2 says:

    The party’s congressional leadership has not, so far, succeeded in offering a palatable alternative to the popular president’s economic leadership. . . “It’s unclear what is the ‘Republican stimulus plan,’ ” former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney told POLITICO last week, urging congressional Republicans to come up with clear alternatives to Obama’s policies. Richard Viguerie, the direct mail pioneer who helped create the modern conservative movement, [said]
    “The ‘Rushification’ of the GOP is the natural and inevitable result of the fact that those who are supposed to provide leadership — Republican elected officials and party officers — are doing little to bring the party back,” he said. “Nature abhors a vacuum, and there is no vacuum in nature as empty as the leadership of the Republican Party today.”

    Fresh from the morning news at Yahoo, the excerpts above show the rethugs THEMSELVES admitting that they are in trouble, and the brighter among them even admit WHY: “denial,” lack of a better plan than Obama’s, Steele, Gingrich, Limbaugh, Jindal, Palin.

    Tis sweet music to the ears!


  8. Art says:

    They don’t call it the “bully pulpit” for nothing.

    I really don’t think they are “going after” Rush Limbaugh. After all, Rush was the one who said he wanted the president to fail.


  9. grover nerdkissed says:

    hey, Ari…i think people need to WATCH WHAT THEY SAY…..


  10. tigger says:

    So basically, IOKIYAR. As always.

    That’s because they’re still not very Intertubes-savvy yet.

    Just wait another 10 or 12 years, when they finally realize those disgusting Abu Ghraib sex-torture photos are still out there on the Net…


  12. Uncle Ho says:

    No surprise here. Another Rethug telling Democrats:

    “Do as I say, not as I do”


  13. SWBob says:

    Repubs are having a hard time figuring this out. They couldn’t govern, so now they think they can give advice on how to govern, but the majority of Americans are ready for solutions, not speculation from failures.


  14. Shayne says:

    Where is stateofthedivision, I was just asking him why he sounds so much like Ari on the ThinkFast thread and it seems he’s gone missing. He even has a site dedicated to Ari called Ari’s Freedom Switch. So is SOD Ari himself or just a really big fan?


  15. Teowens says:

    And we care about what this washed up, has been, has to say why???????


  16. krystalviews says:

    Fleischer needs to crawl back under that rock he scurried out of. If ANYONE should just shut up and go away is this “war criminal’s megaphone”



  17. misshusseinmolly says:

    Even though Fleischer isn’t one of my favorite people, he has a point when he talks about the unique role of a WHPS. It’s true that there’s a difference between speaking for yourself (a situation where you can say pretty much anything you want) and speaking for a a President and that President’s administration (where you pretty much have to limit yourself to the President’s viewpoint). And no — of course one wouldn’t want to take potshots at others in that role without the approval of the POTUS.

    That said — is suggesting that Limbaugh is the leader of the Republican Party really “a slap”? Or merely an accurate observation? It wouldn’t surprise me if President Obama himself had made that observation and Gibbs was merely articulating that — which is his job.


  18. CageyCretin says:

    So, it’s not JUST the trolls who defend Rushycontin…. “Whaaaaaaa…. leave him alone, you big bullies. He can say what he wants. You should just be quiet about him. Ignore him, because that is what we want you to do, so you should do it because we republicans want to help you liberals, and our suggestion is that you liberal types ignore Rushycontin and leave him alone. Whaaaaaaaaa…..” Followed by sickening sounds as they “kneel before Zod”… I mean… Rushycontin.

    Hmmmmm….. so, they whine that we should ignore and leave Rushy alone, because, accrding to them, it would be in OUR best interest to do so. Something about that whole scenerio doesn’t seem to add up. I knw I’m not the brightest crayon in the box and all…. but something sends up BIG NEON WARNING SIGNS every time I hear them cry like this (which is A LOT these days). So……. no, I don’t think we’ll ignore the unelected leader of the republican party. We’ll pay VERY CLOASE attention to what he is up to.

    Thanks for the advice.

    May I offer some to the republicans? Go away — leave this country and go to one that supports the dictatorial corporate theocracy that you all desire and leave America to those who appreciate the spirit of the principles it was founded on.

    I think sod is the slimiest troll we have ever seen here. His ability to convince people that he is only holding the dems feet to the fire when his true objective is much deeper is alarming.


  20. beltman713 says:

    Lie about the Iraq war all you want, just don’t call Rush the leader of the Republican party, because that would be just wrong.


  21. spencers mom says:

    Ari Fleischer has become quite the CCT* and I’m sure Gibbs is delighted to have his input.

    * Cable Concern Troll

    PEACE


  22. stewarjt says:

    Fleischer lecturing on press secretary protocol is like Tony Soprano lecturing on law and order.

    Thank you John Kerry.


  23. Shayne says:

    I agree Fred, SOD’s deceptive practices are alarming.


  24. CageyCretin says:

    beltman713 Says:
    Lie about the Iraq war all you want, just don’t call Rush the leader of the Republican party, because that would be just wrong.

    Considering the kowtowing that ALL the supposed republican leaders are doing to Rush these days, it looks darn obvious that Rush is calling the shots for the republicnas, which, then, makes him the ‘leader’.

    As Rush himself recently said, he OWNS the republican men.

    OWNS.

    Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaaaaa (wheeeeze) hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha……


  25. Shayne says:

    Not only that Fred, I believe SOD switches names to defend his own actions. Sneaky bastard.


  26. CageyCretin says:

    OWNS….. hahaha hahahha ahhhahahhahhaa hhhhaaaaa (cough, cough)… hahahaha ahahahahahaaaahha.

    Whoo. He he.

    Ha.

  29. tombaker says:

    Sorry Ari.

    Your days of gunmauling for gangsters are over.

    How’s that PAC workin’ out? Really – well, that’s 2 bad, huh?

    Maybe it’s time to buy yourself a nice family, and spend more time with it, huh??

    Buh-bye now, Mr. Fleischman.


  30. katy says:

    did he talk about how the obama admin and the dems are to blame for the limpboss (h/t olberman) kerfluffle?

    ’cause he had lots to say about it yesterday on 1600 with shuster… ‘they started it!’…


  31. aquarius2 says:

    LOL! I see Ari, in order to become relevant, has decided to give up on President Obama’s lack of respect for the oval office.


  32. tombaker says:

    They like being owned, by the Right Daddy.

    Shhhh. It’s their little DL secret.


  33. Shayne says:

    Ari was even worse with David Shuster yesterday:
    Fleischer and Shuster.


  34. Yankeluh says:

    Oh, now that they are OUT of office they know how to do things the right way? Ari, STFU.


  35. A Patriot Acting says:

    Sage advice coming from the former Bush Minister of Propoganda. Hey Ari since we’re on the topic of proper press protocal, just how exactly did you help Jeff Gannon gain access to press conferences anyway? And his late night White House visits? Oh, and Ari about that whole PNAC thing, how’s that working out for you these days?


  36. joe cantwell says:

    the main thing we can all agree on

    is that limbaugh is the leader of

    the republican party and the trolls

    support him. this is a good thing.

  37. Dumb Fox the Average Golfer says:

    You know, you really have to be careful when you stand at that podium cause you don’t realize until you are in that unique job how much weight your words have.

    Until Gibbs goes all goo-ga over a non-existent WMD threat, you, Ari Fleischer, can STFU.


  38. PatrioticLiberalChristian says:

    Has Ari ever had a similar comment regarding Perrino, Snow, McLelland? No? Really? Very interesting. Very partisan. Very useless.


  39. Shayne says:

    Katy, apparently we were thinking the same thing but I was a little slower.


  40. Xisithrus says:

    Remember when Perino attacked Ann Coulter?


  41. katy says:

    thanks shayne! that’s the one…


  42. Xisithrus says:

    Remember when Ari Fleischer attacked Scotty Maclellan on the today show?


  43. Xisithrus says:

    Remember when Ari Fleischer attacked Huckabee?


  44. Xisithrus says:

    Remember when Ari Flesicher attacked Obama about bloggers ignoring Jeff Talon News Gannon?


  45. StratRat says:

    Fleischer was the spokesmouth for a facist dictatorship. WTF can he possibly add to the discussion? Seems he is telling us to be grateful we can even think for ourselves. Well, not our trolls, but the rest of us anyway.


  46. flex says:

    FU FLEISCHER! Any one who ignorantly criticizes the Presidents agenda to help America should be smacked down. Criticize and destroy is all that these wingnut extremists know how to do.
    Way to go Gibbs, whack a wingnut!!!!


  47. Xisithrus says:

    Fleischer likes to use his ‘weighted’ words when it suits his agenda, as now with his how dare anyone criticize Lord Messiah El Jabba Bo!


  48. Shayne says:

    Finally the Democrats are standing up to the big mouth liars of the right and the right starts crying like whiny little babies. They can’t handle the truth.


  49. greenpagan says:

    The pre-maturely baldheaded Ari Fleischer is a pain in the ass. Another annoying Likudnik.

    Ari obviously hasn’t been paying attention. Limbaugh’s orders are to tell Republicans to stop criticizing Limbaugh. Democrats don’t give a rat’s ass about his advice.

There are only three or four of us who are willing to step up to the plate and call him out. Why is that. Perhaps the other progressives here can tell us why they call out the obvious right wing trollies coming here with talking points and lies, but they aren’t willing to call sod out on his backdoor dissing of our new President.

    Oh another washed-up repug telling the new administration what to say. For your information fleisy, repugs named limpydic the head, limpydic said he’s the head also. Aren’t you listening?

    Next you shouldn’t lecture our favor WH sec especially when you and other repug WH speakers made a mockery of the US.

    STFU fleisy, you didn’t do a good job when you had a chance and you are doing a worse job lecturing Mr. Gibbs.


  101. EugeneDebs says:

    JK you must be the most pathetically ignorant thing I have ever seen. He told you. YOU are stupid. It is amusing to see you go with the Rush insult #2 that he has brainwashed your substandard brain with. That liberals are unemployed. Like having a job was an accomplishment on the order of climbing mount Everest. You must be really pathetic to think it makes sense. Only the most ignorant people imaginable would repeat such obvious stupidity. You are a racist pathetic moron. Do you enjoy humiliating yourself by constantly showing how pathetic and stupid you are?

    Um, no one is ‘going to do the work for you’ (isn’t that the typical troll response to any question asked of them):
    dbadass has answered your query – now do your homework and read through the thread.


  103. EugeneDebs says:

    You are a troll JK. You dont DO nor do you deserve intelligent discourse. I DID answer you reasonably the only time you tried. I and the other liberals took you apart like a cheap watch after all you are very stupid but we did so reasonably. You come in here toss out racist diatribes warmed over Limborg talking points long after their sell by date you dont GET reasonable. I call you a racist moron for the best reason in the world. YOU are a racist moron. You bait, insult, lie, and act like the racist cretin you are and then SNIVEL that we dont pat you on the head and treat you like you are actually having a conversation? You are a pathetic moron.


  104. dbadass says:

    Geez John Kerry, I might have to give you away to ralph or somebody if you don’t smarting up. It is right there. What do I have to do? Put it in bold?


  105. EugeneDebs says:

    JK isnt used to reading. He only tunes into AMHateradio for his daily dose of brainwashing. He apparantly finds it much easier for others to do his thinking FOR him.


  106. dbadass says:

    And on the side I dabble in processing and marketing sustainable seafood products but that is just a side gig


  107. dbadass says:

    Oh my god John Kerry. Now you are just being ridiculous. Why don’t you have time. This job you suggest you have must be really demanding. Do you go through lots of ink cartridges bolding all your documents? Really what do you do? I promise I am capable of reading it when you answer.


  108. dbadass says:

    maybe it was the nontraditional spelling I used that hid it so well


  109. dbadass says:

    All kidding aside and for real John Kerry are you visually impaired. There has got to be a reason why you can’t find this. Others have. Again perhaps a vision impairment might also explain the weird use of bold. Maybe we have been wrong about you and that. Oh and since I have answered you despite you’re inability to find it, you have not answered me as to what you do? Is that a coincidence? I’ll give you a hint as it is sort of funny. I accidentially spelled it not the normal way


  110. ebbAndflow says:

    ohn Kerry Says:
    D’badassss

    One more time. Just tell us all what you do and I won’t ask you again!! Or is that just too much for you to accomplish !

    dbadasshas done his part, quite magnanimously. Your choice to be obtuse and ‘extremely busy’ to read through a thread you infect, well there is no hope for you…


  111. EugeneDebs says:

    JK you are the most pathetic and ignorant punk troll imaginable. I SHOWED you the answer was in post 85 since you are too stupid to read ONE POST to get your answer the only possible conclusion is you are trolling and just trying to annoy us since you KNOW you are too stupid to have a real conversation or you are too stupid to read a single post to get the answer you keep asking for. Either way it makes you stupid and pathetic


  112. EugeneDebs says:

    Yes JK your meltdown continues but since you have never been anything but an ignorant, racist, moronic, punk, troll. There wasnt much to melt anyway


  113. dbadass says:

    This is really bizarre. Maybe I should simplify it a little and just say life scientist. Do you all think I should put that in bold? Who wishes to bet that my boy John Kerry will fail to honor my request to reveal his career path?


  114. dbadass says:

    GREAT JOB EL PRESIDENTE!!!

    – In a weird way I actually like that brew


  115. dbadass says:

    Well between the courses I teach and the field work I conduct the hours are sort of variable. It also required numerous degrees and about 25 years of experience to get this schedule.

    so why can’t you spell dbadass? Are you trying to make some sort of point that no one seems to be getting..

    Oh and no I don’t wish to get 12 cd’s for the price of one if I only order 6 more later at regular price…


  116. EugeneDebs says:

    JK you are a very ignorant and very racist piece of garbage. You dont work you sell. You are a parasite on those who work and produce. You are worthless in every concievable way and the world would be a better place if you jumped off a very tall building


  117. dbadass says:

    run a VERY successful music mail order business. I ACTUALLY work!!
    —Can’t a very successful business hire someone else to lick the stamps? Sorry my name but you have gotten sort of too absurd while simultaneously boring. I will back to mess with you some more later.


  118. the brown acid says:

    People, the option to flag is there. Use it.


  119. Joe the Philosopher says:

    You would think that after being humiliated in the last elections, these Bush slimeballs would go off and hide somewhere. Like disgraced people used to do. Instead, they get high-paying on hate factories like Fox News where they continue to rant their immoral drivel.

    Doesn’t Ari Fleischer know he’s been disgraced? What an idiot.

    Ari, there’s an apartment waiting for you in Tel Aviv. Why don’t you move there?


  120. telestai2 says:

    John Kerry Says:

    Your master!

    In your dreams, suckface. With every pitiful attempted sally, with every short-falling “witty dare,” you prove that you’re barely even a “master” baiter.
