Thread: Funnier than spelling potato with an "e"

I saw this picture and about died laughing. Is there no place that Obama goes that he isn't accompanied by his to closest friends, the teleprompter twins.
This picture is in a 6th grade classroom where he was speaking to sixth graders.
I am hoping all can get a laugh here...or a cry if you think thats called for.

That is the funniest thing!!! hahaha

Am I missing something? I think that it's pretty darn normal for a President to use a teleprompter.

Things that are abnormal for a politician would be; not knowing how to spell, not being able to speak properly on camera, or not being able to name a single U.S. newspaper that you read when asked by a journalist. Now those are funny.

There you go commiecat, I fixed it for you.
I wonder if he uses a teleprompter when lecturing his daughters

Way to spin it! Now we hate our President because he prepares for his speeches and delivers them well.

How petty.

why would he have to prepare a speech to little kids? i would like him more if we went to them and winged it. show the kids that he can think on his feet and not just read words off of a sheet. it is a little pathetic that he would need a written statement for little kids i can understand masses of voters but little kids come-on.

No spin. It is what it is. As far as hating him, this thread has nothing to do with that. Just a good laugh that I hope others will enjoy also.

I'm gonna go out on a limb and say that he was also speaking to the media.

So, you think it was a photo opportunity do you. I do too. You would think one of his trusted aides would've taken him to the side and say "You know what Barry, I dont think those teleprompters are a good idea in a sixth grade class, it just wouldnt look good"

To say that he needs a teleprompter to speak to kids is; a lie, an exaggeration, a spin, whatever you'd like to call it.

Well if it helps, I got a good laugh out of that comment.
