Obama Calls Out Staff, Remarks Not On Podium - YouTube
The thing thats sad is today's conservatives focus on such trivial, childlike, and social things (such as the subject of your thread.)

Presidents both republican and democrat have a team of people that write all of their public speeches. And if Reagan or GW Bush did not have their speech at the podium, they would have done the exact same thing.

Nope. Seemed more like he was flustered, if not a little stressed.

How about Clinton that gave a whole speach with out a teleprompter because the wrong was loaded. Or when he did some freestyle at the convention.

Quote:
In fact, Clinton was cited when Hub Schlafly, the device’s inventor, died in 2011 for his memorable 1994 State of the Union speech, which was literally “memorable” since Clinton did it all from memory after the wrong speech was put in the device
Analyzing Bill Clinton

And Obama could not belt out a few sentences with out his? too funny.

Exactly. There are legitimate reasons to criticize Obama. I hate to break it to you DALE!, but this is not one of them.

He seemed flustered, but he did not appear angry at all. I think it's hilarious that so many people want slap the "angry black man" label on him. People have been trying to do that since very beginning. But it simply doesn't fly because he's not an angry man. To me, he comes across as one of those people who very rarely has very high highs or very low lows, and I think that either disturbs or confuses some people. He also doesn't come across as angry and bitter, unike some politicians. I've known some of his supporters who actually wished he would be a little more aggressive when it came to dealing with folks on the other side of the aisle. For the most part, he just has a very laid back type of demeanor, and I don't understand why it's so difficult for some people to acknowledge that. You don't have to agree with the man's politics to admit he doesn't fit the "angry black person" stereotype. Now you claim that even when he's laughing, it's just because he's hiding his anger. Give me a break! The president and the first lady are constantly accused of being angry, no matter what they do, say, or how they react to situations.

Maybe one day Obama will forget to tie one of his shoes (and then you conservatives can expose him for the criminal that he is.)

Conservatives getting even more stupid than they are right now.
Love it!
