TOTUS RULES!

You didn’t hear the horns blowing, but TOTUS--Teleprompter of the United States of America--is here.
Rush Limbaugh said it first.
While you were busy trying to save your job, your house, your family and your faith in America, TOTUS had already morphed from POTUS.
It was a clever enough shtick because you can’t shout down a teleprompter. Call it a liar all you want, it will just continue on to the next paragraph in the text.
TOTUS is not just missing promised transparency, Hope and Change, it has absolutely no human feelings. Like a robot, it just scrolls right on.
The Age of TOTUS is not to be confused with with the long ago era of Emperor Titus, known for destroying the city and temple of Jerusalem. But for the TOTUS ticked, Titus only lasted for two years (79-81 AD). While he had no teleprompter to fool the Roman masses, his reign was marred by two epic events, the Mount Vesuvius eruption and the Fire of Rome. Even so, Titus was deified by the Roman Senate.
If you, like aging UBS news anchor Howard Beale, played by Peter Finch in the 1976 movie, Network, are “as mad as hell and are are not going to take it anymore”, there is no way you can really get even with TOTUS.
TOTUS is part of the Hollywood environment in which we all now live. Everyone’s old at 27 and all the “real” people star in reality TV. You can’t vote TOTUS off the island. It’s Big Brother, Survivor and American Idol all rolled into one...

Wish we had a real leader again? At least you can still (for the moment) mock the current one. Click on the picture to view the teleprompter graphic thread.
