Thought this article was funny, from politico no less. I didn't think these guys were allowed to make fun of Democrats.

Seems bambam isn't the master orator that we all thought. His dependency on the teleprompter has been raising eyebrows.

Obama’s reliance on the teleprompter is unusual — not only because he is famous for his oratory, but because no other president has used one so consistently and at so many events, large and small.

After the teleprompter malfunctioned a few times last summer and Obama delivered some less-than-soaring speeches, reports surfaced that he was training to wean himself off of the device while on vacation in Hawaii. But no such luck


Obama has relied on a teleprompter through even the shortest announcements and when repeating the same lines on his economic stimulus plan that he's been saying for months

Actually, not so much. It's true and that should worry you.

What is deperate about it? Obama uses a teleprompter, are you worried that fact will make people wonder if his oratory skills are as good as the media has been claiming?

Who would have thunk that the man claimed to be so articulate, so thoughtful and so skilled in his speeches, is nothing more than another politician reading the words of others off a screen.

I gotta agree with everyone else here, besides you that is, it's pretty funny that the GREAT orator can't give a speach unless someone else writes it for him.
