If that’s the case we can expect a continued inability to keep his real thoughts on America and its people to himself.

A senior administration official acknowledged the shift in the presidents style, saying Obama is speaking more extemporaneously. Love it because now we get words of 'wisdom' like this: "If youve got a business. you didnt build that. Somebody else made that happen."

The new “style” makes Obama look exactly like a high school freshman stumbling through speech 1 class. And the extra anger it lets him generate is frightening voters by the millions while writing Romney’s September commercials for him. As has been noted elsewhere, Obama managed to control his anti-American rage in 2008, barely, through the public’s utter unfamiliarity with him and his talent for reading from a script. Now, as he falls from grace, the mask is off. A win-win for us.

the president at times has ad-libbed remarks while playing off his supporters reactions Much to the consternation of his handlers, no doubt.
What's he going to do when he hears the next "YOU LIE"!, without a script?

3 1/2 years of crutch....a lifetime of “assistance”.....financed through as much college as his mind would tolerate....and given the presidency because of political correctness....and now he’s ON HIS OWN?...
ON HIS OWN..is what brought us the now infamous line.”you didn’t make it on your own” if your successful in business.
HE knows the country is waiting for his all too familiar “ah’s”..”errr’s”...”I wanna’s”....”it’s not about meeeee’s”
and the anticipated “I AM’S”...I Don’t’s”....”I will’s”...I I I I I I I I’S

Well that explains the recent increase in stuttering, malformed sentences, ums, ahs and so on.

Not using a teleprompter lets Obama be more spontaneous Socialist on the stump. A more accurate description.

more like... America's greatest recent reader of other peoples words. And even that honorific had only a couple year shelf life.
Now his vaunted reading ability is just a joke. He always looks to me like he is watching a tennis match when he reads off his teleprompters.

Love it because now we get words of 'wisdom' like this: "If youve got a business. you didnt build that. Somebody else made that happen."Ezra Levant was discussing this last night on The Source (on Sun T.V., or as Canadian liberals call it, Fox News North).
Obamagaffes are noticed... :)

I used to tabulate his number of head flips per minute.
I pretty much concluded that more flips = more stressed.
Anything over 17 was mucho nervous.

Of course, when the media ignores his gaffes and bloopers, it’s much easier to do this. Still, I think he will be back on the Tele within 10 days - YouTube will be FULL of ‘extemporaneous remarks’.
