The Teleprompter President Strikes Again … Barack Obama Thanks Himself in Teleprompter Blunder
BARACK OBAMA … THE TELEPROMPTER AND CHIEF
What is up with Barack Obama and his teleprompter? Or should we say O’Bama know that he was stated he has Irish ancestry. The teleprompter President has done it again, this time thanking himself during his speech with Irish PM Brian Cowen. For a President that is supposed to be such an accomplished orator, how is it that he does not know what speech he is giving? I don’t remember Abraham Lincoln, Ronald Reagan or Jesus Christ (scroll down at WSJ link and check out the related quotes) ever thanking them self.
A teleprompter blunder has led to Barack Obama thanking himself in a speech at the White House in a St Patrick’s Day celebration.
To start the fiasco, the Irish Prime Minister Brian Cowen began repeating Barack Obama’s speech as there was a teleprompter malfunction. With a White House that has a President so beholden upon the teleprompter it is kind of bewildering that they cannot run one of these machines better. The fact that Obama uses a teleprompter all the time makes us wonder how he has a staff that has such difficulty using one as people would think it would be common place. It certainly makes us question the professionalism of Obama’s people.
Irish Prime Minister Brian Cowen was just a few paragraphs into an address at a St. Patrick’s Day celebration at the White House when he realized something sounded way too familiar. Turns out, he was repeating the speech President Barack Obama had just given.
Joe Biden Gaffe with Hot Mike and F-Bomb … “Gimme a f*&$#ing break”
Where have they been keeping Vice President Joe Biden these days? Punxsutawney Phil seems to peak his head out more these days and get media attention. Then again the famous ground hog does not seem to be as prone to gaffes as VP Biden.
At an event at Union Station today where Vice President Joe Biden was heralding the $1.3 billion in investments in rebuilding train stations and passenger rails, a microphone picked up one of the former senator’s myriad Senate colleagues addressing him, formally, as “Mr. Vice President.”
That met with Vice President Biden’s standard reply.
“Gimme a f*&$#ing break,” he said, apparently unaware that the microphone was on.
Audio HERE.
We should have all become suspect of Barack Obama’s decision making ability when The One chose Biden as his running mate.
The Onion: Fool to Post Comment on Internet … Film at 11
JUST FOR FUN, GIGGLES AND LAUGHS … THE ONION NAILS IT.
The Onion has done it again … Local Idiot to Post on Internet … do any of you know a person like this? This is a classic, although I would add to The Onion’s piece and state … emails might have been added as well.
For those of you who are not familiar with The Onion, please be advised that it is satire. Leave your seriousness at the door and open your heart and mind to humor. Warning: some strong language and some of you may find things in this article that are offensive. Some may find the article hits close to home (that’s sarcasm).
“Later this evening, I intend to watch the video in question, click the ‘reply’ link above the box reserved for user comments, and draft a response, being careful to put as little thought into it as possible, while making sure to use all capital letters and incorrect punctuation,” Mylenek said. “Although I do not yet know exactly what my comment will entail, I can say with a great degree of certainty that it will be incredibly stupid.”
The following Onion article has to be one of the funniest ever wrote. Why? Because in order for something to be really funny, there must be truth in it. Read and enjoy. Here were some of my favorite snippets, what were yours?
Mylenek, who rarely in his life has been capable of formulating an idea or opinion worth the amount of oxygen required to express it, went on to guarantee that the text of his comment would be misspelled to the point of incomprehension.
“After clicking the ‘submit’ button, I will immediately refresh the page so that I can view my own comment. I will then notice that my comment has not appeared because the server has not yet processed my request, become angry and confused, and re-post the same comment with unintentional variations on the original wording and misspellings, creating two slightly different yet equally moronic comments,” he said.
Post Presidents Day: Barack “Abe” Obama … “If the hat don’t fit, you must quit!”
OBAMA – LINCOLN COMPARISON, GET REAL!
Hat Tip: Vanderbilt ‘09
The main stream media’s fascination to make comparisons between Barack Obama and Abraham Lincoln is as disrespectful as it gets to who many believe was the United States greatest President. There is a thing called earning respect, not being handed it. The MSM would have everyone believe that Obama is Lincolnesque. Until you have actually done something other than talk about hope, you are not worthy. An individual is not a great President, leader or man of character because someone says they are, it is because we know they are.
President’s Day 2009 has passed without much fanfare. President Obama sees himself as the new Abraham Lincoln reincarnated. Many of us ordinary folks cannot reconcile that view with reality. A slogan comes to mind: “If the hat don’t fit, you must quit!” He could not fill Lincoln’s shoes either. (Vanderbilt – ‘09)
C-SPAN just recently conducted a survey of the best Presidential leaders in American history. What, Obama was not rated #1 or in the top 5? Blasphemy!
Obama Hits Head Boarding Marine One … Imagine if GWB Had done This … SNL Would Have a Field Day
SNL made fun of Gerald Ford when he tripped, they made fun of Bush when he got sick at a dinner, they even made fun of Bob Dole, a wounded war veteran when his hand slipped on a rail … so where is the obligatory Obama skit?
File this one under Three Stooges humor … President Barack Obama bumps head boarding Marine One … DOH! According to the AP, he misjudged the height of the doorway. I am glad they took the opportunity to explain the reason why “The One” bumped his noggin, because if it had been George W. Bush it would have been because he is a clutz and a doofus.
President Barack Obama is still getting used to some details of his new life, including the fact he has to duck when boarding his presidential helicopter.
The 6-foot-1-inch Obama bumped his head Monday morning when boarding Marine One on the White House’s south lawn. He misjudged the doorway and banged his head on the low doorway.
Who said Obama does not do anything worthy of late night talk show humor? Although on a more serious note, “The Chosen One’s” misjudging of the door of Marine One might just be a metaphor for his handling of a so-called stimulus plan.
