Obama Speech - Teleprompter Goes Out

[Anti-Kenyan]

LOL. After hearing the guy speak without it, isn’t it obvious?

[ChocChipCookie]

What an embarrassment this jackass is.

His use of the teleprompter makes work tricky for the television crews and photographers trying to capture an image of the president announcing a new Cabinet secretary or housing plan without a pane of glass blocking his face.

Then take the pictures with the pane of glass blocking his face. It's who he really is. Run a few of those pictures on the front page or cover of Time and I bet we'll see him learn to wean himself off of his glass pacifier.

(And, yes, maybe conservatives should start calling it is "pacifier".)

He bumps his head on the plane, he tries to enter the White house thru a window thinking its a door, he says there are 57 states, he says 10,000 people died in a tornado when it was 12...

And yet only last week CNN was still talking about Dan Quale and his Potato error. (No-They really were)

I wonder if SNL will...O nevermind-who am i kidding.

Let’s hope the US doesn’t have another terrorist attack. He would have to set up his teleprompter on a heap of rubble before he could make a speech.
The Bush-haters thought W couldn’t make a speech, but everyone will remember his words at Ground Zero long after we have forgotten BO’s avalanche of teleprompter-wrapped garbage.

[4rcane]

which came first? Obama discovered the teleprompter or Obama’s oratary skills?

[erikm88]

They're just NOW noticing this?????

I thought a teleprompter present at his "news conference" touting Porkulus was pretty strange, and something I had not seen before.

[IGOTMINE]

I gotta watch that one at home bump

And, I thought The Office of The President-Elect was bad!

[RabidBartender]

There’s your target for you civil disobedience types. Take out his teleprompters before he gets a chance to speak. Then see if he cancels or tries to “wing” it.
