I'd like to know A LOT more about Robert Gibbs tenure at the White House, and how he was advised to handle inquiries about drones while he was Press Secretary...
*Who* advised him not to acknowledge our drone program?
gw....sorry, that was the lack of weapons of mass distruction in Iraq.
Re: not disclosing the drone program
If a program is classified it cannot be discussed with the press (or anyone else without clearance). Mr. Gibbs was following the law.

With my Cable bundle and my Sprint family Plan I'm putting out $6,000.00 a year. I knew I was getting ripped off, but PMG to pay so much and get so little.
Hey steve all smiles, what, did you just butter your key board...
Maybe you can help ralph spread the lies...
I'm conerned about the DAMAGE to AMERICA's Economy by the SEQUESTER!!! The opposition to President Obama by the nrepublicans is "bovine excremen" based on HATEFUL. RACIST, BIGOTRY!!!
Yeah, it has to be. Surely no one could just disagree with him.
You might get some where with that as soon as you name the other President that has gone through all the birth certificate BS. Name the other President that has had the number of filibusters. In other words, get your head out of the right wing sand and pay attention to facts.
Silly Larry- sure- pose a tightly wound reason like that, limiting the inputs. Why- name a President born in a log cabin who got more criticism than Lincoln.
Look at the totality of the opposition- Do you remember Bush 43? Do you remember Clinton? Do you think either of these Presidents had factions against them? Has Obama been impeached? Was Clinton?
TRMS: your my drone inspiration
Why question White House drones and not question the NRA assault weapons and guns in general that kill innocent Americans here at home? Can John McCain answer this questions?
I found the segment on drones to be disingenuous. Robert Gibbs, press secretary shown for 2009 and 2010, said that he is not getting into these matters. Jay Carney, press secretary shown for 2012, is the one who said Department of Defense should be asked. The Pentagon press secretary clips were from 2009 and 2010, which is years BEFORE Jay referred media to DoD.
Please get recent clips of the Pentagon denying being in charge of drone activity, especially if you are going attribute a Pentagon denial in response to Mr. Carney's referral. I do agree that drone activity is being hidden in plain sight, however, there may have been a better way to get these clips into a time cohesive manner.
