Check out his facial expressions–

From the video:

Question: How closely did the White House monitor the tea party convention this weekend? Do you have any reaction to it?

Robert Gibbs: I didn’t watch it at all. (smile)

Question: Do you see the tea party movement as a real political force this year?

Robert Gibbs: Look it seems to be a very successful private enterprise. I would say that there appear to be fewer speech makers that are unemployed in this economy than what might have previously been reported.
