Robert Gibbs ring gets fed up ring with others' ringing ring cellphones

White House press secretary Robert Gibbs on his cellphone

Other people's cellphones are really annoying, aren't they?

White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs loves his, obviously. And his boss has his own beloved specially equipped BlackBerry. As does Michelle.

But today during the regular media briefing Gibbs had had enough of other people's cellphones going off and disrupting his official talking.

Watch the video and see what he does. Later, he suggested cotton candy would be added to the circus.

For some reason I couldn't get this to play. Sadly I had to go out and missed Gibbs. I usually watch his briefings on CSpan.
