   Is the speech on the teleprompter subject to the Freedom of Information Act should Americans request what was on the teleprompter that day?

   Maybe we’ll find a couple of inserts that include injecting a couple of coughs for effects?

   Eh, folks?

   It’s a shame that modern stores don’t put price tags on the items anymore. Adding the $787,000,000,000.00 cost would have made this priceless.

   On the other hand, how do we know this hasn’t already happened?

    I remind our commentors, with Obama it’s all about the show. Here’s an exerpt from his book:

    “People are satisfied so long as you were courteous and smiled and made no sudden moves. They were more than satisfied, they were relieved – such a pleasant surprise to find a well-mannered young black man who didn’t seem angry all the time.”

    Unless of course, you’re angry at AIG…bbbwwaaaahhhhaaaa.

    It’s all about the “show.”

    Minor revision for the people who need a technical explanation for everything.

    He he he. I wonder if Pbo knows the song “Smoke, smoke, smoke (that cigarette)? Maybe it could be his theme song…’course it would have to be re-done…I mean “SAMPLED” but one of the icons of the current musical genre…

    Yes, Karl Rove took control of the teleprompter. Have a Ricola-the Honkey cough drop.

    Maybe the cough drops are like the ones you can buy over the counter in France that have codeine in them. Stops EVERYTHING and your throat turns numb. If so, maybe they’ll stop him from saying “uh” every, uh, five, uh, seconds. That’s, uh, of course, uh, without a, uh, teleprompter. He could give some to Robert Gibbs, his press secretary, who has the same “uh” affliction, maybe worse.
    Uh, mmm. uh. Oh, uh. Mm.

    It reminds me of the movie, Anchorman. It would be hilarious. As for a quote to slip in? How about “I am introducing legislation to repeal the stimulus.”

    I just found that Pamella Geller wrote the following about Obama’s TelePrompter back in September:

    …there is always the chance that someone might put the wrong message on it as a joke.

    “I *AM* a Muslim, I *AM* a socialist, and I *AM* going to send a message to our enemies that we will not oppose them!!!” he shouts as an RNC hacker snorts from the back of the crowd…

    Michelle,

    Obamalamadingdong never has BS caught in his throat as it ALWAYS flows freely from his piehole. I would think the White House press office would issue hip boots and waders to the reporters attending news conferences, but then again, with all the fawning admiration the press displays for him, I think they actually like wallowing in it.

    *out*

    Huff ‘n puff about not even a couple of hundred million when AIG got $180,000,000,000 (or whatever the number is now) from the government? Here’s a simple math problem that got Obama a’sputter:

    $170,000,000,000
    —. . . . 165,000,000
    __________________
    $169,835,000,000

    As you can see, not much of a dent there. Where’s the moral outrage over the taxpayers paying that? It wasn’t AIG’s fault, it was the government’s fault. The government was the entity who decided to shell out the money to AIG based on wishful thinking. In Vegas, they call that gambling. On Wall Street, they call it speculation. In government, they call it business as usual.

    Should’ve just let ‘em fail. If AIG failed already, Obama wouldn’t have to blame his respiratory issues on being mad at AIG. And AIG isn’t the only Little Jack Horner with an unwanted thumb in our pie.

    Another way I look at it is like this (tongue firmly place in cheek): Every taxpayer just gave a charitable donation of a dollar to the AIG Employee Support Fund.

    Obama is nothing more than a puppet. His teleprompter tells him what to say. Right now, Obama’s teleprompter tells him to be upbeat on the Economy, because Obama wants to raise taxes and he knows he can’t do that at the same time he’s dissing the Economy.

    “Having read the Second Amendment and the Supreme Court’s Heller decision and Title 10 of the US Code, I have decided to direct the Secretary of Defense to issue at no cost to the people, a serviceable M16 rifle and an M9 pistol and 500 rounds of ammunition for each to every adult citizen, ages 17 to 45, except for those who are ineligible by felony conviction or mental defect and can pass a review by the National Instant Check System, unless a citizen has a religious or moral objection to keeping and bearing arms. The issuance of these items is to be completed not later than 90 days from today.”

    That’s what I’d like to see on the teleprompter!

    I regret the vicious character assassination that ensued, under my guidance and Rahm Emanuel’s vindictive and gleeful approval, of Sarah Palin and Rush Limbaugh. I will be administering 40 lashes to Harry Reid, Nancy Pelosi, and Chuck Schumer tomorrow because they’ve pi$$ed off and alienated the American public, and they are not invited to my big St. Patrick’s Day party. Too bad, we’re having imported Japanese steak marinated in Irish whiskey. Oh, and I’ll finally have that beer with Sean Hannity!
