Teleprompter Pres Obama thanks himself 3/17

Don't know if the US Obamedia carried this story, which shows just how ridiculously scripted our Glorious Leader is:

12:26pm UK, Wednesday March 18, 2009

A teleprompt blunder has led to Barack Obama thanking himself in a speech at the White House in a St Patrick's Day celebration.

Barack Obama(R) and Irish Prime Minister Brian Cowen

Obama and the Irish PM share the joke during their joint address

Irish Prime Minister Brian Cowen was just a few paragraphs into an address in Washington when he realised it all sounded a bit too familiar.

It was. He was repeating the speech President Barack Obama had just read from the same teleprompter.

Mr Cowen stopped, turned to the president and said: "That's your speech."

A laughing Mr Obama returned to the podium to take over but it seems the script had finally been switched and the US president ended up thanking himself for inviting everyone to the party.

Mr Obama is an accomplished orator but is becoming known in America as the "teleprompt president" over his reliance on the machine when he gives a speech.

Love,

Has to back down on the military paying for their own medical. Has to deal with all of these Tea-Party people protesting. And now his beloved teleprompter isn't working.

Not having a good day, is he?

It just goes to show what a liar he is. He pushes a stimulus bill through, after promising that he will allow American's to see the bill for 48 hours before signing it in.

And now there's this gaffe which the MSM is hiding from the public. The MSM are bought and sold.

MSM RELEASE THE VIDEO!
