Obama Upgrade: Teleprompters Swapped for Giant TV Monitor for News Conference

"He read that opening statement from one massive TV monitor from the back and middle of the East Room. White House officials removed the normal glass teleprompters that usually are positioned on both sides of the podium. That change likely a reaction to the focus on the President's heavy use of teleprompters."

Obama throws his teleprompter under the bus.

It’s nice to finally have a President that actually cares about what he’s saying.

This is an outrage!!! I voted for that teleprompter and now it its being cast aside like the War on Terror!!!!

LMAO Totus has been thrown under the bus and replaced by a 42 inch plasma….where is the climate czar? What is the carbon footprint being left by the new brain of the Kenyan King

BeastieBeanieBoy1der   March 24th, 2009 - 10:01 pm

I really had the uneasy feeling that someone else was in control of him, that he was not really talking but being a spokesmodel under someone else’s remote control. Honestly I have never heard such stilted speech and such roundabout, fragmented answers to what were very simple, easy questions! Obama is a puppet – who is the puppet master? Soros? Chavez?

Pups McCann   March 24th, 2009 - 10:01 pm

Free TOTUS Now!

Mack Bolan   March 24th, 2009 - 10:01 pm

It was obvious before they even got a shot of it. He didn’t turn his head more than a handful of times whereas with his side by side prompters he spoke in a 3-5 word cadence. If he could avoid glaring stumbles like he had a couple times tonight it might actually improve peoples perception of his oration. Then all he’d have to do was work on coming up with some substance to the words coming out of his mouth.

Also, I feel that I have pegged one of his tells for lying. Whenever he puts his forefinger and thumb together and moves them up and down with his words, he is lying. Also when ever he places his hands parallel to each other and presents an answer he will inevitably include a ‘but’ proposition or a shallow singular alternative to whatever he sees as his spectacular proposal. So next time he speaks on camera, remember, fingers together or hands parallel. You will be amazed.

TomRoberts   March 24th, 2009 - 10:04 pm

Looks like this administration is reading Drudge and listening to Rush. I guess it’s only a matter of time before Giant TV starts its own blog.

William   March 24th, 2009 - 10:04 pm

FINALLY… someone to actually relieve poor Pres. Carter of the mantel of WORST American Laughing Stock.

Sigmonde   March 24th, 2009 - 10:04 pm

No longer TOTUS.

Now MOTUS – Megaprompter of the United States.

Douglas_Los Angeles   March 24th, 2009 - 10:06 pm

OK Barry, now we’re on to your new giant TV teleprompter. We weren’t fooled. Nice try though, bud.

How about those newfangled glasses that have your speech on the inside of the lens? Try those next time.

Or better yet. How about actually having some facts and stuff inside your head on various hot topics BEFORE you have a press conference. Most presidents seemed to think that works best.

You’re learning but it’s been a bit on the slow side.

TruthTeller   March 24th, 2009 - 10:07 pm

It MUCH better that he uses a TV screen instead of the regular teleprompter. That way he can look more better like as if he actually knew what to say, and the teleprompter wasn’t telling him what to say…

… and also, this way the American people will think he did not use a teleprompter because he used a giant TV screen instead of the teleprompter.

All the reporters will think and maybe even report that he knew what to say too, because they did not see the giant TV screens in the back which he used instead of the teleprompter, therefore the teleprompter could not tell him what to say…

That Barry- he is such a character.

TexGEOas   March 24th, 2009 - 10:08 pm

Obama looks more and more like a DOOFUS with TOTUS (or MOTUS). This guy has no there there.

Robin   March 24th, 2009 - 10:09 pm

Obama-Lends new meaning to “nothing but an empty suit.”

Better think of some new strategies or Obama may Ax the rod and ram the Rahm!

Eileen for Freedom/Liberty   March 24th, 2009 - 10:10 pm

AMERICA…THIS IS THE AGENDA…TAKE OVER THE BANKS AND OTHER FINANCIAL INSTITUTES!

JUST TODAY GEITHNER AND BERNACKE WERE ON THE HILL ASKING FOR MORE “POWER” TO GO IN AND HAVE FREE REIGN TO TAKE OVER MORE!

AMERICA…YOU MUST BE INFORMED AS TO WHAT IS HAPPENED…YOU OWE IT TO YOUR CHILDREN AND YOUR GRANDCHILDREN IF YOU DON’T CARE ABOUT YOURSELF!

===============================
AMERICA YOU MUST WATCH THIS VIDEO>>>>>>>>>

KNOWLEDGE IS POWER AND WE NEED TO TAKE BACK THE POWER IN OUR COUNTRY…WE PAY THE BILLS!

IT IS ALMOST 2 HRS LONG, BUT YOU WILL GO AWAY WITH A NEW AWAKENING AT WHERE WE ARE IN OUR COUNTRY AND WHAT WE CAN DO TO STOP THE MADNESS!
PLEASE…PLEASE VIEW THIS VIDEO IN IT’S ENTIRETY…AND PRAY FOR AMERICA!

http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=7886780711843120756

=========================
A SUMMARY…
=========================

It details the reality of a secret group of very rich, very elite individuals around the world called the Bilderburg Society. Henry Kissinger, the Bushes, Rockefeller, etc are some of the members.

It proves how Obama was chosen to be their puppet and was elevated to the position he is in with their help. It uses actual news footage, investigations into the group, and commentary by several experts in the field, etc.

It tells their mission to take down the banks and bankrupt the economy in America. What they are planning for our military, etc.

You will be amazed at what is going on in America and the world. I believe it totally…and you will too after viewing it.

It is long…but extremely informative and worth your time.

Please watch it…and then if you think it is as valuable in information as I have found, share it with family and friends, as I have.

JUST ANOTHER SAD, SAD DAY IN THE “REIGN OF BARRY HUSSEIN” AND HIS PUPPET ROLE IN THE NEW WORLD ORDER…OUT TO DESTROY AMERICA FROM WITHIN!

Is there going to be a teleprompter bailout?

Great, I got tired of seeing Obama’s head look back and forth as if he was at a tennis match.

Dr Mantis   March 24th, 2009 - 10:16 pm

I can’t wait until I get to talk to the Obamatons at work tomorrow. The last time I discussed Barack Lincoln with the secretary at work, I complained that the Presisent needed to put all of his energy into the economy and NOT carbon taxes or welfare queens. Her response to this was “Well, he already took care of the economy and now he can work on social change”. SCARY!!!!!

Why does Barry speak like a Cyborg? Is he even human??? He reminds me of some sort of Cyborg which was manufactured in communist China…

First it was “Teleprompter”, now its the “Big Screen”, what next, “Puppet Masters” Dirty Harry and Nazi Pelosi with the puppet strings standing behind him?

Holy s*hit!! It’s unbelievable. The Messiah won’t bother hiding the fact he’s just a suit any more.

Why didn’t the reporters just turn their heads to the monitor instead of the puppet in front of them?

Bill Louis   March 24th, 2009 - 10:31 pm

What does reading from a teleprompter have to do with anything? Maybe Bretbart should be paying attention to what President Obama is saying.

TT   March 24th, 2009 - 10:32 pm

Same staged hot air….the lights are on, but nobody is home..
Perhaps he can borrow an earpiece from the secret service detail for his next speech and have Hillary read it to him as he goes along.

Marcy   March 24th, 2009 - 10:34 pm

Mack Bolan, you’re exceptionally on target with the tells that give away his lying. I agree with the finger and thumb maneuver, but I’ve also correlated the fact that he is consistently lying whenever his mouth is open. You need to watch for that one as well. Let me know if you see it too.

Rakkasan   March 24th, 2009 - 10:34 pm

I think it is great that our President can read out loud. My 6th grade class does that, almost as good!

Next time he should read from a “Heads Up Display”.

TruckerMatt   March 24th, 2009 - 10:36 pm

Maybe he needs the aids because he has something worrying him. The U.S. Supreme Court and the U.S. Justice Department today confirmed that documentation challenging Barack Obama’s eligibility to be president has arrived and soon will be evaluated.

Wow, for all the Bush bashing this man has done over the last year and he mails in this performance, very weak. Once the monitor or the prompter goes dark, he just stumbles around. The kool aid drinkers will just keep themselves in denial, but soon they will realize he is not the savior, just another politician.

Douglas_Los Angeles   March 24th, 2009 - 10:39 pm

Love all your comments guys.

We the American People have finally had the courage to elect just an average man to the highest office. It’s breathtaking. I never thought it could happen.

Barry, don’t let the naysayers get to you. You’re doing just fine.

Average is OK. After all, you never said you were a genius at anything.

Lovely wife and she’s kinda smart too.

STL   March 24th, 2009 - 10:44 pm

I think Barry is a puppet for Axelrod. He’s the one that has been pushing his buttons from the start. I suggest they come up with a helmet that has a clear shield that can be used as a teleprompter. That way he can look forward and side-to-side.

OverRuled   March 24th, 2009 - 10:44 pm

Teleprompter does not meet POTUS standard because he has to look to a side to read. Now he can look straight. Also, the big screen is also a showoff that “He can read!”

Besides, POTUS does not sound good as a nickname. Therefore, he is now changing it to BSOTUS (Big Screen Of The United States). How about shorten this by saying BS Of The United States?

Blah Ha Ha   March 24th, 2009 - 10:45 pm

Wow, a big screen is waaaay different than a teleprompter. Future predictions – cue card guys, semiphore, smoke signal prompting, the sign language translator gives hints… Enough ways to get him through the next 100 days.

Azul Del Fuego   March 24th, 2009 - 10:47 pm

Can’t wait to hear Rush tomorrow. He’ll have the battle between the teleprompter and the plasma 42″ screen for control of Obama’s mind!

Hannah   March 24th, 2009 - 10:47 pm

uh-oh I hope the Teleprompter is not gonna be jealous!

Scott K   March 24th, 2009 - 10:48 pm

Duke Ruke: Yes, he cares so much he giggles, and laughs while he speaks. Yes listen to him talk when he has no words to read… he a mumbling basket case. Yes, he can speak alright. Are you on drugs?

Nevermind he’s a total idiot who’s in way over his head… He can speak… Nevermind he’s naive, and lost… he can speak. Nevermind the man has never held a real job in his life till now, he can speak… The most powerful man in the world, and his only qualification is… He can speak. DAMN, this is amazing!

If this flat screen is running the country, does that mean our t.v.’s get the constitutional right to vote? Can only t.v.’s made in America be president? Has anyone verified the make of our new president… documentation on its country of origin.

This president and his so called team of change are a JOKE! obama can not even put together a complete thought with out a teleprompter, or big screen, know that’s Green! What’s next? He is a puppet all right, still on campaign, making promises’ to every crowd not remembering what he said or promised to the last crowd. The people that voted for him are? Drones! They have lost their way and are fast loosing so much more and taking down the rest of US! I just don’t get it.

Drug Limbaugh   March 24th, 2009 - 11:11 pm

You far right nut jobs become more and more irrelevant every day. The remarks on this site by you idiots and the story alone proves it without a doubt! A teleprompter is ALL you have to act on?? It’s totally laughable! I’m quite content that he uses one to get his message across without stumbling over his tongue as Shrub did every time he spoke even WITH a teleprompter! It’s no wonder at all that his ratings are so high and in fact have risen 2 more points in the last week alone! Again proving you nutcases are simply irelevent and WILL be for ever more! Now go shoot some squirrels with your pea shooters so it makes you feel more “empowered” and then go cry in your PBR! You lost! And more than likely forever! LOL!

Chucky Cheese   March 24th, 2009 - 11:12 pm

Chuck, you have the gall to call other people delusional when you’re peddling in insane conspiracy theories about Obama not being a citizen? Pathetic.

Even more pathetic than this nonsense about Obama making “heavy use of teleprompters”, as if previous Presidents ever gave speeches without one.

RightWinger   March 24th, 2009 - 11:23 pm

Just another one for the pile proving Lil’ Barry is nothing more than a 8 year old boy trapped in a middle-age man’s body.

He is more concerned about what people think about him. He cannot take any type of criticism because he is so thin-skinned. The POTUS jokes have worn him out in what, 2 months? So now we go to MOTUS?

Well, tomorrow is Wed and Wed night is cocktail party night at the White House, so he’ll get to unwind, booze it up and laugh about how the middle class has lost it’s 401K. You know, that “gallows humor” he yucked it up about on 60 Minutes.

Drug Limbaugh   March 24th, 2009 - 11:28 pm

Obamanation   March 24th, 2009 - 11:30 pm

I just wanted to post with this name to show “Drug Limbaugh” how upside down he really is. Defending the use of the teleprompter is as absurd as cridtizing “It’s all about the O”bama for using one in the first place. Your name is just as childish and should point as a reminder that the more We THE People fight among our selves, the more a government without limits is pushing peity arguments to distract us from the ability of all of our ‘Political Heroes’ to do what hey please to keep them selves in power and cash.

It’s not Left v Right anymore. Bush started this by giving the treasury power to write checks with out a vote from the Senate or the approval of We THE People. The Obamanation is just taking advantage of this situation to make sure the system of cash in cash out continues.

BTW…. that’s MY cash.. Your Cash.. Not Theirs…………………

Your hatred for President Bush is the only thing I can see that is clouding your vision, not seeing the forest for the trees, so to speak. I have spoken to Obama voters, and I can attest that many of them have “voter’s remorse.” Hope you wake up and smell the coffee, so that you will see it coming. Otherwise, I feel sorry for you.

Who has saved the President on countless occasions? None other than the TOTUS, of course. After enjoying the TOTUS’ devotion and loyalty for The One to switch to a common plasma TV and throw the TOTUS under the bus like his grandmother and all of those failed Cabinet nominees is just beyond the pale.

Perhaps the most insensitive, cruel thing Obama has done to date.

LuLu   March 24th, 2009 - 11:38 pm

Barry fried his brain on drugs as a youth. Now he is addicted to nicotine, and very likely has psychomotor seizures. (Shaky hands and movements). That is why he can’t just speak from a set of notes. Very insecure person with an inferiority complex that is hidden behind bluster. We are screwed unless we can get him out of there.

Eileen for Freedom/Liberty   March 24th, 2009 - 11:43 pm

Dear TruckerMatt…thank you for being so diligent in getting the word out.

The MSM won’t cover it until, and if, the Supreme Court finds something relevant!

Until then we are on our own. But don’t give up…I will not give up!

If there is nothing there, we should know it. If there is something there, you bet we should know it and act upon it.

The thing that bothers me now…is that with Saul Alinsky Obama being the puppet of the Bildeberg Society…they have alot of power and they are probably the ones that will make sure it keeps under lock and key!

But I believe that the truth always comes out eventually…always! I just hope it isn’t revealed too late!

He’s GOT to have a teleprompter or supersized teleprompter so he doesn’t keep letting his radicalism out of the bag.

wheatus   March 25th, 2009 - 12:15 am

One of the cable news outlets did a piece on President Obamas speech patterns today…they had a split screen with Obama and Bush, and others….Bush looked and spoke like he was stoned out of his mind, or just very, very stupid.

The Split screen comparison that Obama had the most in common with was Reagan.

Conservatives, you need to come up with ideas if you want the power back. Reagan won because he convinced moderates that smaller government was better, not that gay marriage is a sin, not that his opponent was an anti American terrorist….he sold the US public on this core principals. The ideas that appeal to the logical side of the mind. The Ayn Rand stuff… If you continue to attack Obama with the tea party air head stuff you will loose again.

Have none of you ever taken even a general college course in public speaking? One of the cornerstones of a good speech or public address is preparation and a method to help one in maintaing the organization and flow of the talking points. Use of cards, teleprompters, in this case a television, is to aid the speaker in keeping calm and maintaining train of thought. Do you really want your president to take hours memorizing a speech or hours focusing on the problems he and his cabinet are trying to fix? Do you want him to end up speaking off the cuff and end up confusing the general audience with intricate details they won’t understand or accidentally leaving out points? No matter what side of the fence you are on about Obama, it is really quite silly to focus on his use of visual aids. Furthermore, to all the obviously unread notations about Obama being a puppet, a small stupid man, etc., you really need to do some in-depth reading regarding the current state of economic affairs as well as some reading on history and political policy. Negative and childish comments bring both parties and all view points down.

Chucky Cheese   March 25th, 2009 - 12:26 am

wheatus, you underestimate us (that’s a good thing :^) Our ideas were not represented in this past election, except maybe by Ron Paul, or Romney. I only voted for McCain because he was the lesser of the two evils, not because he represented my views. To compare Obama with Reagan is shameful. Osama is a big gov’t lib with no ability to inspire (except maybe hatred for the rich) , and he is lost without his t.v. screen. Reagan was a small gov’t conservative’s conservative who actually had governing experience. There is NO comparing the two… Oh yea, Reagan was also a U.S. citizen.

tele promt operator   March 25th, 2009 - 12:26 am

Uh – hey, you might not like Obama – but as someone who works prompter for events television, you should all know that the big TV he’s using there IS A TELEPROMPTER – it’s just using a large screen TV so it can go in the back of the house.

So, now you know. Continue.

DEF   March 25th, 2009 - 12:28 am

Is it time to check his Constitutional credentials yet? seems like he wants to turn America over to a greater power of the world, he is writing his own experimental rule book!!! Is it time to impeach and incarcerate yet?

DK Ramakers   March 25th, 2009 - 12:38 am

This is what happens when you elect a communist hack who has never DONE anything in his life.

And before his Marxist toadies start crying, NO, going to college does not count as doing something. For some reason, every time I mention that Comrade Obama has no experience they like to rattle off his college degrees as if going to college is equivalent to running a business or a state (you know, like that unqualified Governor Palin).

They’ll still be defending this loser when they’re in the bread lines.

It’s so refreshing to come on here and read the humorous posts. That’s one great thing about Americans. When times get tough our sense of humor comes to the forefront. Some of the best film comedies ever made were made during the Great Depression (Marx Brothers, WC Fields, etc).

Some of the posts here are funnier than a typical night on Leno.

So much more fun than reading the braindead Obamabots on HuffPo who STILL constantly drone, “Bush, Bush, Bush, Bush, Bush, Bush…”

Well, after this speech, it will be even more and more weeks before gun and ammo suppliers can begin to meet demand. We were a civil society during the great depression. The long lines at the soup kitchens and the hungry won’t be as civil as the were 70-80 years ago. The 25 million illegals won’t all of a sudden become “law abiding” illegal immigrants, let alone our own hungry and desperate. Start planting your gardens and preparing for the worst. Dumbo hasn’t got a clue. You can’t spend and borrow your way to properity.

Billy Zabka   March 25th, 2009 - 1:19 am

The ignorance on this sight is alarming. I am no big Obama fan and thought Bush was a total disaster and believe Reagan was our best President. I fall right of center. You sheep that listen to Rush Limbaugh and Hannity and Savage, etc and just parrot what they say are complete idiots, as are the people on the other side that read the daily Kos Huff Po and other crap. The divisive nature of those type of propagandists hurt our country more than anything. It is time to get unbiased news and think for yourselves.

Swalker,

Reagan had one there, but he didn’t read off of it like a robot all the time. Obama thanked himself the other day due to a teleprompter mix up. He just reads and doesn’t think, like a dope.

What is really funny is that the samrtest people in the world, you know the press, have no problem with Obama being nothing more than an infodude reading press releases from the wide screen. And when he “answers” a question from a reporter how can any of them stay awake?? Obama has taken baffling with B.S. to a whole new level.

Nixon regularly gave 30 – 50 minute addresses without the aid of a teleprompter or any other aid. As Milton Friedman, whose policies Nixon wisely did not choose to follow (because he knew they would lead to a debacle of the kind that has now befallen us) said Nixon was one of the smartest people he ever met. If he were still alive, Friedman would no doubt concede that Nixon was the smartest person he ever ever met.

Kenny   March 25th, 2009 - 3:18 am

Reagan did not give press conferences with a teleprompter. Whoever said that wopper is lying. He made some speeches with them, But not pressors. Reagon was one of the most gifted speakers ever. That speech he gave in Normandy or the one after the Challenger exploded are simply beautiful. Plus Reagon had humor and wit to go along with his remarkable speaking skills. You know there was another young politician who was fawned over by the masses like a rock star, Who people followed around like mind numbed robots too, Young and full of fire and energy like Obama : Adolph Hitler. The kool aid drinkers need to start listening to what he is saying and stop having orgasms every time he walks on stage.Does who will not learn from histories mistakes are doomed to repeat them.

I talked to many patients, and learned a lot. addiction effects every walk of life. i saw doctors, politicians, clergy, teachers, truck drivers, etc… all addicted to pain killers, legal pain killers. very easy to get addicted. And you supposed understanding Liberals hold this over someones head?? fact is he HAD an addiction. fact is HE GOTR HELP, AND IS RECOVERED! He’s human, unlike Obama, who is perfect, and walks on water.

So Foul Noise, where do you read your news from, teleprompter, pieces of paper, giant tv?

Puleeez, get over all these pettiness, this is the 21st century, embraze it.

Allow the president to take care of all the sh*t bush left behind.

He won and there is nothing you haters can do about it, see you in next election.

Scott K   March 25th, 2009 - 7:21 am

Billy Zabka: anybody who is a real Reagan conservative (bush was not one) think pretty much alike. We grew up much the same way. We were taught certain values, or learned them over time. We respect the flag, we have a very deep love of this country, the constitution, our history, we believe in personal responsibility, we like character when we see it, we understand words like duty, honor, and country… words that liberals mock, and generally piss on, traditional values, etc… Rush, Hannity, Savage do not tell us what to think. Your demagogues tell you this, they want to marginalize opposition by personal attacks on character, etc… These speakers echoes the thoughts and opinions of conservatives, real conservatives, not RINO’s, not middle of the roaders. There are millions of us.

Many of us were PO’d at the RNC, we did NOT like McCain, many of us either sat out this election, or voted Obama in protest, I for one swallowed hard and voted McCain. In any case, Obama won cause of RNC screw ups. McCian screwed up royally. That will NOT be the case in 2012. Obama is Jimmy Carter part 2. And as Jimmy brought about the Reagan revolution so will Obama bring about the Palin revolution. Conservatism is far from dead i assure you little man. Get used to the words President Palin It’s going to happen. The silent majority will once again set things straight. Only positive thing Obama has accomplished is to unify the conservative base, and grass roots in the USA. We will not let you people wipe your ass on the flag any longer. Be afraid, be very afraid! Obama is going back to Chicago, you can have him. Maybe he can run for president of Cuba… he’s so fond of the place. Hell, he has more affection for Cuba than he does for the USA!

My condolences to TOTUS… he seemed upbeat that he would still be used on the road with the Widescreen handled White House gigs..

myron   March 25th, 2009 - 8:14 am

The criticism is getting to him. So he trades the prompters for a huge screen TV! Remember, the Dims cannot stand the slightest bit of criticism or mocking the way G.W. Bush endured for eight years. Of course, W. never was addicted to the teleprompter. The Dims don’t care that the public fired the Republicans for overspending. In 2010, they think we’ll have forgotten that they have spent 3 TIMES more money, and used their power to protect their Wall Street friends at Goldman and AIG. So outrageous… we will not forget. Americans expected more from the Republicans, and they acted like Dims. In just a few months now, they see just how damaging the Dims are. So sad that they fell for the smooth prompter-reader. Lesson learned?

WorldofWagner.com   March 25th, 2009 - 8:17 am

There’s nothing whatsoever wrong with President Obama using a teleprompter or large television. President Obama works very hard, and his days are long. He should use every resource at his disposal, including teleprompters to make his job not only easier, but doable. There are those who will never like President Obama, no matter what he does, and it’s sad that they’ve stooped so low as to bitch about teleprompters.

Citizen Carrier   March 25th, 2009 - 8:22 am

Is it too much to ask that the President have enough of an understanding of his own policy proposals and the problems they seek to alleviate to be able to speak conversationally about them without a visual aid?

Do you suppose, just maybe, that a history of never having a real job, voting “present” a lot in the state legislature, and 103 days as the most liberal voting Senator in Washington actually wasn’t enough executive experience for this office?

Bill Y   March 25th, 2009 - 8:22 am

So THIS was all part of the “Change” we were promised……….
Along with all the new taxes, new regulations, new bonus’ paid, and all of the “Pork” in the bills that have been rammed thru.
When Hillary Clinton (not a fan) said that his Senate record was sketchy…….he mostly voted “Present”. “That’s not a Yes…not a No…its a Maybe”
So…this is our “Maybe President”….who is “Present”.

Can’t wait to see what the next 3 1/2 years bring.

Will that big teleprompter fit in the EIB studio. Maybe he would debate Rush if they allowed him a crutch like that. I think the point is he performs badly without it. Did he have it for Leno? He is just a skinny little man in over his head who is doing his best to project a confident demeanor—without saying anything to hang your hat on.

He continued with how the white man doesn’t like a black man as president.

I can see how you, a flaming liberal, would not find anything wrong with Obama always using a teleprompter. You don’t care that everything he says is written by someone else. Or, that now he’s decided to use a big screen tv to read from instead. No, you would never criticize the Messiah.

John G   March 25th, 2009 - 11:50 am

A “news conference” shouldn’t be scripted. The questions should no be rehearsed and Obama should be able to speak extemporaneously. Everything with Obuma has to be scripted because he doesn’t have the ability to think on his feet. He has to have someone pulling his strings and speaking for him – Emanuel. Obama continues to prove that he’s an empty suit. Kid of like “Chatty Kathy” Pull his string and he talks.

You are 100% right. He turns control over to Pelosi and the gang to fix the economy.

Presidents have used TPs for years. But only one used a wheelchair. O has to use one so that his coke-riddled mind can remember the speech and the lies he has to tell. I wouldn’t mind him so much if he believed the crap he says. But as left-leaning has his words are, his mind is much further left.

AmericanBelle   March 25th, 2009 - 12:10 pm

Contrary to popular liberal lies (what’s new?), Bush did NOT use a teleprompter for every single speech he gave, or most especially, for news conferences!!! Bush’s teleprompter contained phonetic speech on how to pronounce the difficult names of people and places worldwide, like Kyrgyzstan or Harare. Perhaps this is something Obama should consider with his teleprompter, considering he can’t even pronounce a word as easy as Orion!!!

I’m tired of the lies and excuses put out by liberals and the media. George Bush never came close to the assinine antics of the baffoon in the White House today! He’s never held a real job, just flits about organizing campaigns. He’s being controlled by the left as we’ve witnessed…he’s incapable of handling impromptu conversations (as seen on Leno the other night), yet not a word is said.

The real problem with this idiot is that he’s not just screwing up with words or speeches, but he’s changing our culture and destroying the free markets. This is all race-related. Blacks can’t do for themselves, so instead of lowering the bar for their consideration, Obama is destroying the bar and flattening the playing field, taking our rights and privileges and way of life with him. Blacks are too stupid to fend for themselves, so they’ve put Obama out there to strip us down.

Heil Obama! Have you paid for your carbon credits today?

I wonder if it would be considered an act of terrorism for someone to surreptiously pull the plug on the BS (big screen)when BO “channels” his next speech!

GREAT   March 25th, 2009 - 12:34 pm

GREAT!! He reads answers as his aides feed them in with their Blackberries because he doesn’t know what to say. He doesn’t know what to say because his core is hollow and he’s clueless. GREAT!!
It’s nice to know the US’s and the world’s fate lie in the hands of what amounts to students trying to cheat on their final exam because they lack experience and didn’t study because they spent too much time protesting. GREAT!!

Erkel   March 25th, 2009 - 12:34 pm

Trading in teleprompters for a monitor — now that’s real CHANGE!

Next, the LEADER will use the latest military technology to build heads-up displays into a pair of dark wrap-around sun glasses. That way he won’t have to move his head at all when talks.

Who CARES … speakers since the dawn of TIME have utilized manuscript speeches!!! Orators memorized their written speeches. If ANY of you, Douche Limpbaugls included, think that this matters to anyone other than those of you who are in on the current “in (purile) Rush-joke” … are foolish! Dubyah used a teleprompter (a lot of good that did him) and so did Clinton … BFD!

Some of us actually care about the content. The content and just the content!

myron   March 25th, 2009 - 1:20 pm

Jeff is stupid enough to think that reading a TelePrompTer is the same as memorizing a speech. He’s stupid enough to spell “W” incorrectly, and no telling what the other misspelling was meant to be. Of course, he’s stupid enough to be an Obama-bot. All these small-brained Obama-bots like to say that all presidents since Eisenhower used the prompter, but not in every speech… and especially not in a so-called press conference. Wrong again, Obama-bots. Geez, will we ever see the day when Americans can think for themselves again? Very doubtful with the Oprah, CNN, MSNBC, American Idol crowd.

Voice of Reason   March 25th, 2009 - 1:22 pm

I’ll tell you Jeff why this matters – not that he uses a teleprompter (everyone President uses them), but that he can’t seem to speak publicly WITHOUT it. Even at a St. Patricks Day party. I never saw a candidate use them at EVERY campaign appearance. Obama doesn’t seem to be able to deliver his ideas without it being written down. Even Clinton could speak about politics, off the cuff, because he knew what he was talking about. Obama has ZERO experience in any of this – so it must be written out for him. His off the cuff answer at the presser were long, boring and said nothing. AND we’ve all seen what happens to him without a written message or the teleprompter – he stutters, stammers and seems lost for thought. Thats what this matters.

jefe   March 25th, 2009 - 1:24 pm

Can anyone tell me why this matters?

myron   March 25th, 2009 - 1:34 pm

Jefe (Jeff?)… it matters because this man imperiously poses as a great orator. It also matters because he is revered by the leftist whiners who attacked G.W. Bush mercilessly for occasional blunders, when this guy is absolutely horrendously boring without his prompters. He also has a near-comical plethora of verbal pauses. In effect, it matters to all of us because he is showing himself to be either a phoney or a puppet, or probably both.

Darth Shatner   March 25th, 2009 - 1:50 pm

Obama’s heart is not in the game. This is about his ego and how he comes across to the “tv watching american public”.

Speaking from the heart does not have to be scripted. One’s Belief systems and self truths should be easy to discuss. This guy struggles to format beliefs unless he is reading words off a screen.

Obama is the most scripted president we have ever had. Obama is a celebrity, not a leader.

Mack Bolan March 24th, 2009 – 10:01 pm
Also, I feel that I have pegged one of his tells for lying. Whenever he puts his forefinger and thumb together and moves them up and down with his words, he is lying. remember, fingers together or hands parallel. You will be amazed.
********************************************

I noticed this too. It used to be fashionable to clench the fist with the thumbnail pointing up and resting lightly on top of the fist.
Now its the forefinger/thumb combo you’re talking about. Those people are crazy. They all do it, not just BO.

Eileen for Freedom/Liberty   March 25th, 2009 - 1:57 pm

Dear jefe…because it shows the substance and character of the man!

He does not speak from the heart, he speaks the words that others give him to say.

That is why, when being interviewed by Steve Kroft, he laughed…laughed foolishly about the demise of the American auto industry and the plight of Americans who are losing their jobs…he laughed!

Because what he does and how he does it…shows the character and substance of the man…and this man does not have character, substance, Presidential poise and/or a patriotic bone in his body!

That is why!

Its completely obvious that Barry Obongo is a dull witted drug addled puppet of the Globalist Banksters just like his pal W. Bu$h. The Rahm Emanuel Administration is loaded with Wall Street hacks and Zionist warmongers. How’s that for change?

Mark   March 25th, 2009 - 2:20 pm

Come on people, do you read more than just the headlines. This “president” didn’t ditch anything; he traded in his small teleprompter for the 52″ jumbo one. Typical Obama, lie to the US people and see who’s stupid enough to believe it.

Jack-O-Bama   March 25th, 2009 - 2:38 pm

Make an “O” with your hand — as if you were clutching a…pipe; about 5 inches in circumference.

Now, move that “O” shaped hand back and forth about twice a send.

Now do this in front of your crotch.

Now you’re doing the “Jack-O-Bama”!!!

[...] Was this an effort to make sure he didn’t just thank himself in last night’s press confe…? Obama read that boring and pointless opening statement from one massive TV monitor from the back and middle of the East Room. White House officials removed the normal glass teleprompters that usually are positioned on both sides of the podium. That change likely a reaction to the focus on the President’s heavy use of teleprompters.” Did the White House think no one would show the TV instead? Knowing their arrogance, I wouldn’t be surprised. [...]

Jack-O-Bama   March 25th, 2009 - 2:41 pm

> Now, move that “O” shaped hand back and forth about twice a send

That’s “twice a second”.

Stupid teleprompters. Er, Big Screen TV’s.

Maybe he just wanted to watch Basketball…

sorry for my comments… I’m actually a lib posing as a conservative so as to use the same “special olympics” insult as Obama in order to create the appearance of hypocrisy amongst conservatives, and blunt the edge of Obama’s shocking insensitivity from the other day. also, the “monkey turd” plays into the racist stereotype, so that when people read this it will confirm what the media tells them about those on the right.

Thanks, Ol’ Joe.

WTF??   March 25th, 2009 - 5:55 pm

All of you are missing the sublime beauty of this. You see, if a GOP president uses a teleprompter but still flubs his lines, he’s a ‘Man of the People’. Just a common guy who grew up in a powerful blue-blood family like most Americans. If a Democratic president uses a teleprompter, he’s a coastal, intellectual elite who grew up in elite environs like a single-parent home and went to public schools, getting into the best universities on his own merit. The problem isn’t the teleprompter, per se, it’s that it’s a DEMOCRAT using a teleprompter. Geeziz, must you folks be spoon fed every single talking point you’re supposed to believe without question?

Finn   March 25th, 2009 - 5:56 pm

“…Wow, you guys are such morons! A bunch of bitter, unaccomplished haters….it’s the message they are communicating that is important…”

- A “reverend and mentor” who GD’s America…
- A wife who has never been “proud” of America…
- A man who runs on transparency – then seals his college records – to prove it…
- A man who claims citizenship – then hires a team of lawyers – to secure it…
- A man who campaigns on eight years of runaway spending and a historic deficit – then doubles it in less than 50 days…
- A man who supports a congress – who wrote the laws and spending bills for the past two years – and blames a president who didn’t…
- A man who bans lobbyist – then attempts to hire one…
- A man who condemns cheats and dishonesty – then accepts one to run the treasury…
- A man who signs a contract – but does not read it or know what’s in it….
- A man who has never held a job – but the most important one in the world…
- A man who preaches “equality for all” – then targets 5% unequally…
- A man who pledges to reduce the tax for 95% – then raises them for 100%…
- A man who speaks of responsible behavior – then throws a party every Wednesday night with my money…
- A man who tells me to show fiscal responsibility – then borrows money he doesn’t have – and spends money that isn’t there….
- A man who shows me nothing for my money that he spent – and tells me it’s “my patriotic duty” to give him more…
- A man who has never run a business – but would like to tell me how to run mine…
- A man who pledges allegiance to the constitution – then null and voids a perfectly legal contract protected by it…
- A man who follows the belief that upholding the immigration laws of America – is unpatriotic and un-American…
- A man who is willing to provided for those who attacked this country – while degrading those trying to defend it…
- A man who would even think of not providing for this countries fallen – after his order fell them…
- A man who “voices” free choice – then systematically seeks to silence the voiceless…
- A man who pleads for Gods blessing of America – then destroys the greatest gift ever given to it….

And how so much I do agree – - – ”…it’s the message they are communicating that is important…”

Noticed the tv during Obama’s speech, but did you notice Emmanuel with his index finger up to his lips, toward the end.

Was he signaling Obama that he had one minute left, or was it telling Obama to ’shut up’????? Inquiring minds want to know.

Is there any footage of Emmanuel during the televised conference and what he was doing?
