No one denies that almost everyone these days use a teleprompter. But Obama absolutely depends on it.

Have you not noticed that Obama can never look directly into the camera (the TV viewing audience)? He is either looking left, or right. never at us.

I find that a bit disturbing. People who lie will not look you in the eye (well, some will; Clinton did).

Obama is clearly lost without the teleprompter. He has even interrupted his speech a time or to to ask if they could "speed it up" or "slow it down". What an ass.

Jimmy Carter was the first that I remember that said Nucular. It seems to have caught on, as many politicians today, Dem or Rep say it. Yeah, it sounds pretty ignorant. It's a mispronunciation; but, 58 States? That's another matter. That is totally ignorant.

At least! But, I have to defer to my military experience; they told us that they don't make pilots out of people that do not have an above average IQ. To fly a plane requires an ability to make split second decisions, and they had better be the right ones.

Clearly, Obama does not have that ability. Therefore, Bush is of higher intelligence than Obama.

My observance.

THANKFULLY! Beck is so incredibly full of crap, whereas Olbermann is a very interesting- and well spoken- voice of reason. Fact check everything Olbermann says- he only argues facts, you may not like his "side" on issues but he is always right as far as the facts go. Too bad people like Beck don't pay more attention to the facts.

Beck has certainly run out of material.
Nice try, "songgirl". If he meant 47, he would still be wrong. There are 50 states. Or didn't you know that?

Besides, he said this more than once. He said it on several differnent occasions. Beck only replayed the one. I have heard the others.

Wow, now I have heard it all. Say what you want about Obama, but on foreign relations he is HEAD and SHOULDERS above Bush. He is MILES above Bush! Bush had zero foreign relations skills- his idea of foreign relations was to bully other nations, give orders to their leaders and expect them to fall back in line with what he wants, or else to just bomb the he** out of a place with no regard for the consequences.

Exactly. I have had people tell me that I have an accent. I don' think I do. But it depends on where you are from, and where the listener is from.

Californians have an accent to some people. I lived in California for 30 years. I know I speak faster than people her in O h i o, w h o s p e a k (really) s l o w l y. In California, we speek with machine gun speed. People can tell "your not from here".

Absolutely! On foreign policy, Obama has no clue. And neither does Hillary, which makes it especially bad.

Condoleeza Rice was a "specialist" in foreign policy. She was an expert. Clinton cannot hold a candle to Rice, and neither can Obama hold a candle to Bush.

This is true. Obama is his own worst enemy.
