Obama is burning daylight—literally. The press conference is being held outdoors. It’s a beautiful setting with palm tress in the foreground and the ocean in the background. However sunset is at 5:50 p.m. HST, about 44 minutes from now.
He’s answering the first reporter’s question, and I note him looking down at the podium. He very obviously has notes there so he had to have been given the question beforehand.
Has anyone seen a teleprompter? If not, he’s got to have something down on the podium, maybe some kind of Ipad type thing.
BTW, he can sure blather on...
