They must’ve had to send the teleprompter out for repair, and it won’t be operational in time for the ceremony.

Teleprompter must be overdue for a major overhaul by now.

I think it’s because he’s going to be speaking ebonics and doesn’t want white America to see him yukking it up with the crackheads.

The TelePrompter may not have the Rosetta stone linguistics installed in its software yet....

These liberals are so Obama happy they cannot see his standard M.O.

He is obsessed not to be photographed with black people. He did this on his campaign, he continues to do this today.

It is nothing new.

The news media would be shut out if it was a Girl Scouts award. Obama doesn't want to answer any question right now about the AIG lynch mob circus. The whole episode—using the media, Congress and union “protesters”—was a choreographed operation by the White House. Obama’s political theater was an escalation in class warfare. When FOX News exposed the farce other news organizations had to follow.

The Obama White House has closed the press award ceremony to the press.

No whites allowed, just the Black federation of Black Community Newspapers. Doncha just love it when the administration practices integration? LOL. I would not be surprised if the Obama's changed the name of the White House to the "Black House."

I thought we were all supposed to be color blind!

It seems this is yet another double standard. We need a ‘black press’ because those darned white dudes run everything and it’s not fair. /s

Then, to top it off, Obama hides from ‘the American people’ that he is a RACIST! Some of us already knew that!

What? Is he afraid he’ll stick his foot in his mouth again and we might actually hear what a racist like him and his wife say behind closed doors?!
