A teleprompter will be in use for the first time in the Central Hall of Parliament when US President Barack Obama addresses MPs on November eight.

As per the tentative programme being worked out, the address by Obama, who once said that "America has its roots in the India of Mahatma Gandhi", would not be for more than 20 minutes.

The president's programme in Parliament House complex itself will be less than an hour affair, Parliament sources said today. It is scheduled to start at 5pm.

The programme will feature a welcome speech by vice president Hamid Ansari and a vote of thanks by Lok Sabha speaker Meira Kumar. The US president would also sign the Golden Book, the visitors’ diary of Parliament.

Uhhhhh...WHAT? America pre-dated Gandhi by a bit over a hundred years.

Obama has no real thoughts of his own; he is a sock puppet.

If TOTUS weren’t there, he’d be telling the Indians to go sit in the back of the bus.

Gee, it is almost as though he didn't really learn anything at university and was promoted solely on the basis of his skin colour...

The only people Obama DOESN’T think had something to do with this nation’s founding were its actual founders.

India should now outlaw the use of a teleprompter in its Parliament to set an example for the US, even if it has experienced only one special accommodated situation. How about articulate elected leaders in the US with a brain and an education for a change?

Virtual, teleprompted zombies do not cut the mustard.

I think Obama would fail a simple ‘timeline of history’ quiz where he would have to put in chronological order a series of 10 or so historical events . . . I mean epoch-defining events. Does he know which came first, the American or the French revolution?

I’ll bet THEY don’t need a teleprompter.

That douchebag Obongo is an embarassment to America.

I’ve often wondered if TOTUS is present at his “family” dinners?
