Before you stone me or exile me to Siberia these are NOT MY WORDS but IMO worth repeating:
Teleprompter Mishap Has Obama Thanking Himself For Inviting Irish Prime Minister To White House
Good grief…
WASHINGTON – Irish Prime Minister Brian Cowen was just a few paragraphs into an address at a St. Patrick’s Day celebration at the White House when he realized something sounded way too familiar. Turns out, he was repeating the speech President Barack Obama had just given. . . .
...Cowen was 20 seconds into his second address when it dawned on him that he was giving word for word the speech that Obama had just read from the same teleprompter.
Cowen stopped and looked back at the president to say, “That’s your speech.”
Heres the best part: After the mistake Obama took to the podium again…and promptly thanked himself for inviting everyone to the White House:
Obama laughed and returned to the podium to offer what might have been Cowen’s remarks. In doing so, President Obama thanked President Obama for inviting everyone over.
And just think, this clown is in charge of the whole damn country.

Hmmm... it does make one wonder. Could not a mindless robot be constructed that would parrot words? Why do we need 0bama?

Could 0bama be the first prototype? Is this the real reason he won't show his birth certificate? Is it really a Certificate of Manufacture stamped complete with a date of final assembly? Inquiring minds want to know!

Yet again, I've found three UK news organizations with articles about this and not a SINGLE US news organization who will mention it. Even Fox News hasn't covered this yet.
I guess the American media, especially ABC News, was too busy sending teams of reporters to Alaska to block Levi Johnston's truck and ask him questions about his personal relationships through a window. Now that is clearly more newsworthy than a president meeting with a foreign head of state.

Thank the Lord we have the Internet which is still free for us to get informed, The media is so determined to blind us to what is really happening in the presidency by it's constant cover up of anything unflattering to Mr. Obama.( I have a hard time referring to him as president). If this goes on much longer we will have no credibility left in the eyes of the rest of the world.

you missed the point completely,
I know bush is no longer the president I am not stupid,
my point is public speakers all make mistakes, like that they are human, no body is perfect, does it mean we have to forgive them/
It depends on what they said,
and how sincere they are about apologizing,

Little newsflash for ya...
BUSH IS NO LONGER THE PRESIDENT
OBAMA IS!
Obama is the one who is phucking up our country and ramming a communist agenda down our throats, NOT BUSH. BUSH IS NO LONGER IN OFFICE didn't you get the memo?

I also saw just a quick clip on the TV about it that did not give the full story so I checked it out and found this article.

You would think Obama would have stopped when he said his own name... but I guess not.
Where is this in the incompetent press?

True, which is part of why I call them the incompetent press.

The media only prints items that flatter Obama. They shielded him all through the campaign and are still doing it in his presidency.

WILLFULLY NEGLIGENT press would perhaps be a more appropriate name.

It seems to me that his over dependence on teleprompters has biten him where the sun don't shine. It had to happen sooner or later, because even teleprompters are operated by humans. I am hoping that someday Obama will join the race, might make things a lot different.

:) :) Oh how I wish I could use the laughing icon in the mylot code.. this is so funny. I missed this one... I just knew about the Jay Leno show where he made that gaff. He literally can't speak without a teleprompter... I call him Mr. Teleprompter in chief.
