White House Says Palin Palm Writing Demonstrates Unfitness to Lead
A Semi-News/Semi-Satire from AzConservative ^ | 13 February 2010 | John Semmens

Posted on 02/15/2010 10:07:58 AM PST by John Semmens

The Obama Administration’s Press Secretary Robert Gibbs pounced on former Governor Sarah Palin’s use of a few words written on the palm of her hand during her 45-minute “Tea Party” speech last week as “the clearest evidence yet that she is unfit to lead this nation.”

“It’s too unstructured and off-the-cuff for the kind of complex challenges we face,” Gibbs argued. Do we really want to put this kind of person in power? The risk to the nation would, I think, be incalculable.”

“A true leader is better prepared,” Gibbs continued. “He takes his time mulling things over. He hires the best experts to explain the issues and to script well-reasoned remarks that can be used to help inspire citizens’ confidence that he has matters under control.”

“Sticking to a prepared script shows the kind of discipline that cannot be duplicated by the free-wheeling style exhibited by Ms. Palin,” Gibbs maintained. Gibbs dismissed contentions that the President’s mispronunciation of words in his prepared remarks was evidence of a deficiency, arguing that “it shows that the President has confidence in his staff to put together the right words, even if he can’t pronounce them.”

What does being unable to talk without a teleprompter say?

Yea, that’s why Obama can’t read anything unless it’s on a telepromter

One question in response - why does our president need to use a teleprompter when speaking to fourth graders?

Obama’s first question when he is giving a talk to sixth graders is “where in hell is the teleprompter”. The true indication of a great reader, not a great leader.

LOL!

How petty. Then again, you have to EXPECT this from shallow liberals.

How do LIBERALS explain the Obomination’s REQUIREMENT for a teleprompter or he can show off his black oratory skills?
Yes, I mention his race, because LIBERALS are thrilled about his “oratory skills”. Their LOW EXPETATIONS of BLACKS is obvious in their praise of the Obomination’s lack of oratory skill. For LIBERALS anything beyond Ebonics is considered fabulous IF you are a LIBERAL.

OTOH, Thomas Sowell, Alain Keyes and Clarence Thomas are considered "Uncle Toms" because they truly have excellent oratory skills. Unfortunately for LIBERALS, they LIKE Sarah Palin and these black conservatives. Serious people look at the MESSAGE.

Hey Gibbs, tell me about Obozo's teleprompter!!! Tell me about all the "experts" Obozo's surrounded himself with!!! Explain why Obozo needed a teleprompter to visit school children!!!!! Explain just how it is, with a 60 vote majority in the Senate, Obozo was unable to get ObozoCare through Congress. Yes, he's one great leader, you moronic idiot.

When Obama is on the phone does he use a teleprompter?

We already know he has hired people from MoveOn sending out his tweets and stuff.

“A true leader is better prepared,” Gibbs continued. “He takes his time mulling things over. He hires the best experts to explain the issues and to script well-reasoned remarks that translate easily to a teleprompter, especially when addressing children, that can be used to help inspire citizens’ confidence that he has matters under control.”
