The idea that comedians can't find anything funny about Obama is ludicrous. It's been nothing but screw up after screw up.

It would be hard to keep all of the lies straight
without the use of a teleprompter.

Well, in the spectrum which ranges from the comical to the tragicomical to the tragic, where are we right now?

Are we still at the point that we can laugh about this disaster?

the writers don’t want to be seen as racists, hence no jokes about a man who oozes material for jokes.

Because he knows that he’s a dimwit and he is terrified that it’ll become obvious to everyone else.

Only problem is, most of us already know it. The rest will figure it out soon enough.

but comedians are having a hard time finding any material to make jokes about President Obama

It might be a black problem... in that case go after the tax cheats on the cabinet, nancy, harry and plugs... that would be a good start.

I would think that President Obama’s preference for tax cheats to man his administration would be worth a joke or two.

If Leno had the guts, he'd open the show with him standing at a teleprompter to do his monologue.

If he REALLY had guts, he'd have one at his desk for displaying the questions for his guests, and then set one up for a guest (who is playing along). THAT would be funny!

merciless ridicule

Gerald Ford and Dan Quayle come immediately to mind. The press obsessed on their "foibles" relentlessly performing it's role as a conservative bashing machine.

his use of a teleprompter to give his initial presentation as well as in answering questions

How can it be a press conference if he can use a teleprompter?

Only way is to give the questions to "plants" in the press corps and then call on them in sequence of the script.

MSM should, but imost definitely is not, ashamed of their malfeasance where this dolt is concerned.

Hillary's testicle lock box has been replaced with 0bama's MSM testicle lock box.

Better get used to it.....Obama gets the kind of coverage Castro receives in Cuba.

There is NOTHING he can do that will not at least be tolerated in the liberal media.

This man is their god.

“Why....?

Because he’s nothing more than a snake oil salesman who has not one original idea that he can vocalize. He can only read the lines like some actors.

This malady is much the same as people who can't tell the truth rarely drink alcohol.

When they imbibe they are unable to remember many of their past lies well enough to relate them in the same manner they told them previously. Hence that old saying about never trusting a man who doesn't drink.


Notice how Rush's recent CPAC speech was done without a teleprompter, and very little take on notes?

If the media were to ridicule The Kenyan on his...let's bundle it all up and call it "inexperience", they'd look mighty hypocritical given their treatment of Sarah Palin. Go to YouTube and search for 'palin faye' to see what I mean.

Obama’s aides would put together answers to a large number of possible questions so as soon as a reporter asks a particular question the computer screen could flash talking points to remind Obama how he’s supposed to respond to that question.

You gotta be sh***ng me. And we're supposed to just sit back and nod approvingly? This whole thing is getting Kafkaesque.

Why Is He So Afraid of Speaking Without a Teleprompter?

It isn't Obama that is afraid of speaking off-the-cuff, it is his handlers that are terrified of it. I'm convinced he owes people big time for covering up his birth certificate and other information. These people own him, lock, stock and barrel. I think he probably gets his talking points and instructions from these people via his blackberry that he absolutely will not give up. It probably goes handlers -> Obama -> writers -> teleprompter -> Obama -> his willing minions...

"Obama’s Crutch — Why Is He So Afraid of Speaking Without a Teleprompter?"

It's because he knows he will sound just like Miss South Carolina.
