YOU MUST WATCH THE SHORT VIDEO to get a full understanding of the absurdity of this story. My wife thought it was an April fools joke!! She has to have an interpreter follow her around everywhere, all day long. OMG.
No, deaf people can't do just any job you morons! Next up, blind crane operator!
This truly defines left wing progressive mentality.

Deaf people also cannot hear secrets discussed behind closed doors. How perfect for this administration!

Watching the interpreter answer the phone for her and sign what the person is saying to the deaf receptionist is amazing.

Two people required for one job. Now that’s efficiency!

Hey, I wasn’t joking. I’m sure she is very good at her job, but there are some advantages for Obama, or ANY group of people wanting to keep secrets, here. Also, I’m sure she is an excellent lip reader with all THOSE advantages.
Am I being divisive and prejudiced?

deaf people can do anything

Well, I can think of one thing that that they cannot do.

There are just some jobs handicapped people shouldn’t be allowed to do because their disability DOES impede...This is one of them.
What’s next...Deaf and Blind on the Secret Service Team? (there is a joke in there somewhere)

It's quite some symbolism - 0bama is deaf to the American people.
Worse still, no interpreter can get through to him.

Let me get this right.
She states deaf people can do anything but then needs someone to follow her around and state what she states while having someone translate for her.
This is typical liberal logic.
I live in St Johns county FL where St Augustine is and which has I think the biggest if not the most known deaf and blind school in the country.
So yes we have a lot of deaf and blind students here and trust me I think they would be the first to acknowledge that this woman is nuts.

So we pay her and her interpreter to do the job of one person?
