Lousy Economy Even Hits Obama’s Teleprompter

My goodness, even TOTUS is being threatened by layoffs these days. But on the bright side, we don’t see many stories about Obama being concerned with reducingdependency, but this is one of them, so soak it up.

From The Hill:

President Obama is weaning himself off his teleprompter.

At recent campaign events in Pennsylvania, Virginia and again Monday in Ohio, Obama spoke to crowds in high school gymnasiums and at crowded outdoor events without his teleprompter, instead using written notes.

The difference is dramatic. Instead of turning in his characteristic manner from right to left and back again, reading from the two sloping, clear-plastic planes of his teleprompter, Obama has glanced down at pages in a binder on his podium.

    He must have a lot of “um” and “uhh”s on his pages.

    Who cares if he can speak clearly. Nothing He says makes any sense.

    I hope it was Biden who wrote the notes.

    “The difference is dramatic. Instead of turning in his characteristic manner from right to left and back again…”

    It’s official. His speeches won’t be remembered for anything he actually said, but in 20 years you’ll be able to tilt up your chin and turn your head from right to left and people will immediately think “Obama.”

    Obama and His Fellow Hypocrites, Masterful Poseurs

    The following recent news stories have been covered on CNS.com but may or may not have been reported by President Barack Hussein Obama’s mainstream media. Probably not since, after all, they are Obama’s MSM.

    1. Bill Clinton’s former pollster Stanley Greenberg commented on the possibility of Gov. Mitt Romney picking Condoleeza Rice for his vice presidential running mate.

    Greenberg fulfilled his role as an Obamian poseur by comparing the prospect of a Republican choosing a pro-choice VP candidate to the Democrats choosing a segregationist.

    Greenberg’s obvious racial/racist reference to Ms. Rice’s African-American heritage betrayed either his gross historical ignorance or his intentional effort to adhere to the Obama’s campaign’s strategy of distorting realities.

    The Republican Party was the party of blacks in America from the time Republican Abe Lincoln freed the slaves up until FDR convinced them his raw deal was in their best interests and it was the GOP that stood up against segregationist Democrats such as KKK Grand Kliegel Robert Byrd and Al Gore’s daddy to pass the Civil Rights Act of 1964.

    LBJ’s Great Society, which virtually obliterated millions of black family units and rendered more millions of blacks as economic slaves dependent on the government for survival, may have solidified the African-American bloc for Democrats. However, for Greenberg to suggest the Democrat Party is not the Segregation Party is as ludicrous as suggesting Democrats give a damn about the welfare of African-Americans.

    2. Clueless and devious White House Press Secretary Jay Carney made the outlandish observation last week that his boss’s 2009 $831 billion economic stimulus package is “widely recognized to have broken the back of the recession.” . . .

    Take away the notes also. That’s how you find what’s really in his mind.

    Oh, that’s right, he needs guidance from his handlers.

    @berlot98,

    Don’t forget LBJ’s plan for the Great Society was “to have them niggers voting Democratic for the next two hundred years.”

    Someone hand him a note that says:

    “I want to apologize to those patriotic Americans that despise what I was doing to their country and saw me for the peckerhead that I am. I resign effective immediately.”

    When he realizes what he just read, tell him to sing like Al Green again and assure him it’ll be OK.

    I don’t care if this sorry son of a bitch talks with or without a teleprompter. :mad: I DO NOT want to see or listen to him or see his name in or on anything ever again in my lifetime. :mad:

    I wish I could really tell you how I really feel and what I really want for this evil man. :mad:

    So instead of looking like he’s watching a table tennis match, he’ll be looking down repeatedly, as if he’s getting his cue from Satan in hell?
    Can’t say it’s an improvement, but probably closer to the truth.

    @Madjack – I second your opinion! He is a vile, despicable man, with evil intentions for our country (ours, NOT his).

    What Obama really needs is a helmet mounted display like the fighter pilots use. Just think of the human-like head movements he could emulate instead of having having his nose permanently stuck higher than a Kennedy.

    Besides, I think the look suits him. A few Hammer & Sickle decals and Chicago Maverick is on the loose.
