Obama's Teleprompters
The topic of Obama and his teleprompters (one of which was stolen a year ago, causing a public appearance delay) has been so pervasive in the "counterculture" that it led to the creation of the term TOTUS. But it wasn't until today that TOTUS officially became part of the mainstream media lexicon courtesy of this slideshow via Reuters, which should explain just who pulls the strings.

You just have to watch him discuss a subject that has actual meaning to him.
Like his NCAA Tournament Bracket Pick show on CBS.

It has been shown that Obummer's speeches use known hypnosis techniques:

So *who* pulls the strings?
Does the teleprompter direct him when to switch dialects from, say, omnipotent master of the universe to down-home redneck in the hills of Tennessee to "brudda-firm-da-hood"?

All presidents use them.
And there are many times that Obama (and others) speak and don't have them.
Can we get back to grown-up news now?
Typical misdirection from another apologist. You want grown-up news, try your god's debt, annual deficits, regulatory explosion, job-killing spree, race-baiting, and constant lies.
Look at the picture of obunghole where it shows him from the neck down and he is holding the microphone. Could he be the pied piper? Leading all his rats around?
How many Bushisms would we have today if Bush was never allowed to use a teleprompter?
I have an idea, take the teleprompters away from both conventions, and don't let them read from notes. Then we'll see the real dumbasses in the race.
It's Bush's fault. Bush couldn't speak either. Bushisms are funny. Blah blah blah. As far as 2012 is concerned, Bush is dead. He's been dead since 2008, at least. It was a combination of suicide and murder. But he's dead nonetheless. So shut the f*ck up about Bush.
This is about your god, BHO. Wake up to what he is doing.
Is Romney any better? Heaven forbid he is worse. That seems to be beyond the realm of the possible.
Damn. Youth truly is wasted on the young.
What reply did you read? -1
We are a pretty awake crowd here at ZH? Did you get lost?
Here is the Boy King genius for 1 minute without his teleprompter. He goes from this suave, urbane political god holding forth grandly about health care to an absolute DULLARD. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=of61E1FesPU
I like a dumb guy who doesn't try to bullshit you into thinking he's anything more than the dummy he is. The only thing I liked about dumb ol' Dubya was that he knew he was dumb and was very happy to prove it to you.
Long teleprompter manufacturers....
