Gibbs admits to the play-writing required of all political theatre when he says “…we have talked to many about the process for this. We have talked to them prior to making some of these announcements and prior to some of this testimony.”

They’ve formulated the playbook of our lives, and again, it says “WHEN IT COMES TO BASIC HUMAN RIGHTS IN AMERICA, WE WILL DO WHAT WE WANT TO DO – BUTT OUT.” So, HRC, are you helping write the playbook? Or getting played by the Players… I’m sick of the playing. What a cesspool Washington is.

It’s time to admit Gates played us, boys and girls, regardless of whether or not it was on Obama’s instructions. PLAYED!
