White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs launched a sarcastic barb at former Vice President Dick Cheney on Monday, but then the Obama administration spokesman pulled back a bit as he acknowledged the "seriousness" of the subject -- terrorism.





The comments came at the daily White House briefing, during which Gibbs dismissed Cheney's statement Sunday on CNN that several of President Obama's policies had left the country less safe.

"Well, I guess Rush Limbaugh was busy, so they trotted out the next most popular member of the Republican cabal," Gibbs said, sarcastically linking Cheney to the conservative radio talk-show host.


"I would say that the president has made quite clear that keeping the American people safe and secure is the job -- is the most serious job that he has each and every day," Gibbs added. VideoWatch Gibbs talk about Cheney »
