Letter to the Editor: Here s an example of Rep. Bob Gibbs incongruous hyperbole The Repository © Newark Letter to the Editor On May 3, Rep. Bob Gibbs released his statement to the House Committee on Oversight and Reform. In that, Gibbs said, “The lack of transparency and politicians avoiding accountability are major factors why the American people feel so disconnected and ignored by Washington.” I totally agree with his statement, but Gibbs himself does not. It’s just another example of Gibbs using hyperbole but demanding that people take that incongruous hyperbole as fact (journalist Walter Einenkel). A recent case in point: On May 19, the House voted to approve legislation to establish an independent commission to investigate the violent insurrection on Jan. 6 at the U.S. Capitol. Thirty-five Republicans voted in favor of the Jan. 6 commission bill; Bob Gibbs was not one of them.
