Addicted to the Teleprompter … Why Does Obama with Such Oratory Skills Have a Dependence on What to Say?

Funny, I never remembered Ronald Reagan, Abraham Lincoln or Jesus Christ relying on a Teleprompter.

TELEPROMPTER DEPENDENCE

The overwhelming speed with which BamBam is imposing the Far Left’s Agenda requires behind the scenes control and coordination.
The sheer volume of this stuff is not under the management of our new leader at all.
Who, then, is feeding his Teleprompter?
Or is it really Rahm Emanuel? (Vanderbilt – ‘09)

If former President George W. Bush was mocked as English was his second language when he made a gaffe, maybe some one would like to explain how such a so-called gifted orator like Barack Obama needs a teleprompter. Not just for the long winded speeches, but for all of his speeches? No other President has needed a teleprompter like this, ever.

Why would anyone need such a dependence and crutch to give a speech? A true orator knows their material.

Such a dependence on a teleprompter gives rise to the obvious two questions. One, who has Obama’s ear or should we say eyes as to what he is reading. Two, as Flopping Aces asks, is there a media double standard as if GWB did something like this they would be referring to him and stupid, ignorant and a half wit. Is Obama nothing more than the equivalent of a Hollywood actor reading his lines off dummy cards? That would explain the fascination with the stars.

We have been told over and over by the MSM that Obama is a gifted orator. Really, or is that just more of the propaganda that we are shoveled by an industry that has carried Obama’s water since he came on the political scene. However, as all can clearly see Obama is lost without his teleprompter. As Wizbangs states, “without it his oratory collapses like a marionette without a puppet master”. Remember this priceless Town Hall event when the teleprompter broke? Makes ya wonder who really is pulling his strings.
