Too Funny: Obama Needs Two Teleprompters For Three-Minute Speech…

And the left wants us to believe he’s the smartest man who has ever lived.

(Washington Examiner) — President Obama required two heavy-duty teleprompters on Monday during a three-minute speech in which he nominated Alan Krueger to serve as chairman of his Council of Economic Advisers.

“I am very pleased to appoint Alan and I look forward to working with him,” Obama said, staring at the large, flat-screen monitor to his right, then shifting his eyes to the teleprompter on his left. “I have nothing but confidence in Alan as he takes on this important role as one of the leaders of my economic team.”

Obama did not give Krueger a chance to make any comments on Monday.

    The Kenyan broke out the TOTUS 1000 models for his 3 minute blah, blah, blah……And NO Allen you cant speak.
    How much did this cost us?

    I’m more interested in what’s on the teleprompter than whether or not he uses them.

    More about the “brilliant” barry from Jack Cashill

    http://www.americanthinker.com/2011/08/early_obama_letter_confirms_inability_to_write.html

    Cashill even includes my favorite quote about the Wookie’s “brilliance”

    She (Wookie) did not write well, either. Mundy charitably describes her senior thesis at Princeton as “dense and turgid.” The less charitable Christopher Hitchens observes, “To describe [the thesis] as hard to read would be a mistake; the thesis cannot be ‘read’ at all, in the strict sense of the verb. This is because it wasn’t written in any known language.”

    So Michelle’s thesis was “not written in any known language”?
    Is “Wookie” a language?

    He is a puppet, pure and simple.
    The question is who exactly is pulling the strings?
    The Wookie and Valerie Jarret with first buddy, Reggie Love.

    That must be the “Hardened” Totus 1000 model.

    U-Minn: Obama Least Smart Since FDR

    “President Obama now has the LOWEST average Flesch-Kincaid score for State of the Union addresses of any modern president — with his 8.5 grade level falling just below the 8.6 score recorded by George H.W. Bush during his presidency.”

    *wicked smaht*

    OOH. The first recorded use of the new mil-grade HurricanoPrompters. I bet those suckers went for $750K each.

    Contrast TOTUS’s 3 minutes with Bush’s off the cuff comments at ground zero on 9/14 (no TOTUS required). A small segment:

    President Bush: Thank you all. I want you all to know — it [bullhorn] can’t go any louder — I want you all to know that American today, American today is on bended knee, in prayer for the people whose lives were lost here, for the workers who work here, for the families who mourn. The nation stands with the good people of New York City and New Jersey and Connecticut as we mourn the loss of thousands of our citizens

    Rescue Worker: I can’t hear you!

    President Bush: I can hear you! I can hear you! The rest of the world hears you! And the people — and the people who knocked these buildings down will hear all of us soon!

    Applause, applause, applause

    The sad thing is that anyone who was paying attention knew all this before the election:
    Inability to speak without a teleprompter
    Stupid mistakes, such as 57 states
    Autobiography actually written by Bill Ayers
    Radical mentors
    Muslim birth, upbringing and sympathies
    Questionable birthplace
    No background info available, no school records, no thesis, no writings
    No experience
    No accomplishments
    Stated his position was to bankrupt the energy industries and raise costs

    What’s going on with Obama?
    - Uses ’2008′ for date when signing guest book in Britain.
    - Gets daughter’s age wrong.
    - Gets Medal of Honor recipient details wrong.
    - Says 80% of the country wants tax increases.
    - Gets his own birthday wrong.
    It’s time the Left got off Palin’s back and started re-examining their messiah who appears to be cracking under the pressure of his failing presidency.

    Comrade Barry needs those teleprompters and writers for everything he says or writes because English is obviously not his first language. When he speaks ad lib, his grammar is often faulty and syntactically weak. He presumes to use figures of speech that are a part of our culture and twists their meaning because he doesn’t understand them (e.g. “Don’t make me call my bluff”).

    So why two telepromoters for three minutes of obamas minotnous oinking anyway

  20. Coastal Eddie says:
    August 29, 2011 at 3:32 pm

    The point is he is able to use two prompters and nobody knows he uses them, right?

    It is important to stay up to date with another “Robo-read”.

    I don’t need no stinkin’ teleprompter to make this post…just about a half of a six pack or so!

    That would save the feds a whole boatload of money…just give them more beer and let them at the microphones!

    And they call Obama the smartest guy in the room?
    Is he really that smart or is he just a thin-skinned narcissist who doesn’t want to sully his image.
