The Teleprompter President

I have had a tough time lately watching President Obama when he gives a speech. His head flies back and forth, left and right, like a person watching a ping pong match, as he reads off his omnipresent teleprompter. He even uses it to make minor announcements. It makes me dizzy just watching him.

I guess I am not the only one who noticed. Check out this story from the old gray failing lady, the New York Times. Obama Sticks to the Script.


The Politico also did a story on this today:

President Barack Obama doesn’t go anywhere without his TelePrompter.

The textbook-sized panes of glass holding the president’s prepared remarks follow him wherever he speaks. Obama's Safety Net: The Teleprompter.
