TelePrompter Epic Fail!!!

Yes, I am officially late to the party, but I think "Epic Fail" is my new favorite saying. How else could you describe this classic Obama flub?



And another one...



And another one...



Yeah, I know. All politricians use em'. Barry writes his own speeches. It doesn't diminish the fact that he's a great speaker. Bush was an idiot and couldn't have read one if he wanted. Blah, blah, blah. Just admit it, this is sorta funny/jacked up. There's nothing wrong with calling it what it is.

And since we're on the topic, is Barack really that great a speaker? Really? Lets be honest: he's nice on the stump, but he's always been an iffy "off the cuff" speaker. Those initial Democratic debates were just dreadful. He got better, especially vs McCain, but considering the competition, that isn't saying much.

Having seen him speak in person 3-4 times, I still fail to see what's so great about him as a public speaker. I've seen Jesse Jackson in his prime. Barack couldn't hold Jesse's condom wrappers.

[pause]

I think he gets a little extra boost because of whom he's following ("Mr. New-Cue-Lurr") in office. Just my two cents.

Nevertheless, I'll tell ya'll one thing though, if the TelePrompter Scrolling Dude screws up during tomorrow night's 100 Days PrimeTime Extravaganza (ft. T-Pain & Lil' Wayne), some heads are gon' roll.

Question: Do you think Obama leans on that trusty TelePrompter a bit too much? Does this crutch say anything about his competency? How long before someone makes a TelePrompter Vocoder clip and puts it on YouTube?!?
