Yes, it's strange. The only thing I can think of is that he was making a formal statement on a national tv hookup, using the classroom as a prop, and that he wanted the teleprompter for that. The chat with the students would have come after that.
Still a strange way to stage such an event.
For the people that keep carrying on about how this is a photoshop DESPITE me posting about daylife...go read the Daylife Site. It is a publishers site.
I got it directly from this website. NOLA.com. Educational News. Right click on the picture and then open the properties. You'll see it came direct. I doubt they photoshopped it.
What happened to the teleprompter, the rug, and the podium?
Lookie here ... C-Span photo-shopped an entire six minute video of it. Those wacky satirists at C-Span!/s
Too bad you don't have the guts to put your money where your big mouth is. Insults are so much easier.
A special rug and a lectern? How pompous can you get?
Here's a screen cap of video footage at the WH site of TOTUS' trip to the elementary school, replete with podium in the tiny classroom teleprompting to the kids:
It is NOT a photoshop.
I think you are very close. See this article:

Now, look at photo #6. The caption says:
President Barack Obama points to the media, as he enters to speak, after a discussion with 6th grade students at Graham Road Elementary School in Falls Church, Va., Tuesday, Jan. 19, 2010.
This photo is not a photoshop -- it's a press conference that was being held in a classroom. Please correct the title. Thanks!
I don’t see any kids in the pics with the teleprompters, and the background in the pics with the kids is clearly not the same as that with the TPs. Smells fishy.
Evidently you can’t friggin’ read updates as they occur. Perhaps you should join the moonbat brigade: http://www.whitehouse.gov/blog/2010/01/19/speeding-race-top
MODERATOR: PLEASE REMOVE “PHOTOSHOP” FROM THIS POST.
Then why did you put (Photoshop) after the title?
It looked that way to me to, but then I noticed that realclearpolitics.com had this video of part of the speech
If Obama disagrees with my remarks he can release his test scores, I.Q. rating and transcripts from various educational establishments he attended.
Inquiring Minds Want To Know!
I didn’t. The FR moderators did.
Anyway ... the story was further developed to shop SubZero was actually spoke to kids in one room then did his teleprompter thing for the press in another room: http://feedyouradhd.com/obama-uses-teleprompter-for-1st-grade-audience/
When I first saw these photos, I only had a quick glance and dismissed them as a funny photoshop job.
These are real????
What a COMPLETE tool!!
Can we get some clever photoshoppers to put Obama and his teleprompter in some other common places?
- check-out line at the grocery store?
- talking to his own kids?
- at a petting zoo?
Head scarf..
