His words, the president's voice [27 year-old is Obama's "voice, "mind-reader"]
Chicago Tribune ^ | March 7, 2009 | Mike Dorning

Seated in a chair beside the fireplace, Obama turned his attention to a 27-year-old with close-cropped hair among the aides perched on the office couch. His instructions were familiar.

Looking at that picture leads me to think of all those in their 60s on up who worked hard all their lives and are now seeing their savings and financial security decimated, while this bunch of frat boys parties on the taxpayers dime.

as typical the drive by media ignored it

But Favreau better hope he never gets an invitation to join Hillary for lunch in the park

There were (and still are) the 'Sarah' Rules of Engagement; not ever to be confused with the 'Obama Rules. . .'

Meantime, clearly in their polling; and for the time being; they have decided Rush is the richer target for their abuse.

At least with Reagan it was his wife who was criticized for using mind readers.

This is why the whole administration looks like a Frat Party.

And also why so much has been false in his speeches. Stupid guy probably gets his info from Wikipedia.

Anyone who can read Obama’s mind has the ability to read fine print.

One more story about Jon Favreau, overrated lightweight. Came up with “hopey-changey” and had a willing liberal MSM carry a big lie message 24-7? Not impressed.

You changed the title. You can’t do that.

Obama is basically Jim Jones with a teleprompter

Interesting statement....tag line material for sure.

To prevent duplication, always use the title at the source. Thanks.

He said, 'I'm staying here. This guy's the real deal.'

He might be a good speechwriter, but he's not a great judge of character. Easily conned.

From the article:
Favreau and Obama alike "think in terms of the cadence of the words," Axelrod added. "Not just the meaning of the words but the cadence of the words, how they work together, how they sound together."

Some of us recognized the hypnotic quality of the rhythm of 0bama's words during the campaign. Of course it was -- and remains -- intentional. Content is unimportant.

Obama is basically Jim Jones with a teleprompter,

Exactly, and well stated. His words are mental joy juice specifically designed to override the thought process. Sadly, many in the iPod generation have no thought process to speak of and the attention span of gnats. But they've got rhythm, yes indeed.

Key question: is Favreau the hot dog or the bun? (not that there’s anything wrong with that...)
