White House press secretary Robert Gibbs smiled and waved his hands when asked if he was ready to put an end to his battle with conservative radio host Rush Limbaugh.
“If your enemies are fighting themselves, then don’t get in the way,” Gibbs said.
Gibbs, in an interview with The Hill, acknowledged that the response was a “crude paraphrase” of a passage from Sun Tzu’s The Art of War. But given the former Senate aide’s penchant for battles, it’s not surprising he’s familiar with it.
