Teleprompter Shot of the Day (this is NOT photoshopped!)
The Corner ^ | 26 January 2010 | Rich Lowry

Posted on 01/26/2010 1:31:06 PM PST by SE Mom

Here's Obama dropping in for a chat with his middle-class task force. And people made fun of Reagan because of his notecards!

B-but Obama graduated Magna Cum Laude from Harvard Law School, and he'd have to speak in class, without teleprompters, to get all those A's to graduate at the top 5% of his class, wouldn't he?

This looks exactly like Obama's scar except its on the Right side of Obamas head. What they often due is sever the connecting hanglia between the left and righ hemisphere tio dure epilepsy. That leads to the left hand not knowiing what the right is doing.Dedfinitely an Obama trait.

And also leads to speech impediments like Obamas. I'd say this is a brilliant find and more than a guess.

It is possible.

Sometime last year we had a thread on one of his press conferences.

There were big screen tvs behind the reporters instead of teleprompters.

His thug/thugettes were standing with their blackberry’s at the ready to type in the answers to questions asked by the press members.

One shot showed Emmanuel with a woman apparently telling her what to enter on her Blackberry.

Free Republic’s search program is next to worthless and I can’t find that thread.

I’ll try- but he hasn’t had an ACTUAL press conference since ...ahem...July!!!

You know what’s odd? In trying to cover up that he was using a telepormopter for talking with schoolkids his aides said no, no- the teleprompter is there for AFTER the kids- for when he takes questions from the press.

Weird, eh? Why would he need a teleprompter for questions from the press?

That is when Emmanuel and his thugs stand around with their Blackberrys ready to answer the questions from the press. They type in their answers and at the speed of light, 0b0z0 can read the answers.

Wouldn’t it be cheaper for the taxpayer if he just wrote “I am an idiot” across his forehead in permanent marker? It would accomplish the same thing.

“anyone with a lick of sense might think he needed them because he is not saying his own words...”

Of course everything he says are the words of others, he’s too stupid to say anything on his own!

“What I want to know is who is typing in the answers when he is speaking to a live audience”

All politicians have canned material. That’s why (in addition to desiring never to offend anyone if they can help it) they get accused so often of circumloquity. In the teleprompter’s case, they likely insert paragraphs that more or less address the subject raised by the question, or failing that a subject that’s remotely close to the question asked, or failing that something the president really likes to talk about and is prepared to segue into at a moment’s notice.

Remember when the left used to say that about GWB? That he was plugged in through his back during debates? I think it turned out it was a bulletproof vest or something else that belonged there.

A possibilty. His handlers would have been well aware of his handicap right from the start. I recall the video from during the campaign when he stops, repeats himself, waits, then says 'I can't hear you' - I always interpreted that to mean his incoming transmission had been cut off!

Wish I could find that video again...right from the start, they couldn't let him speak without INPUT!

I thought the scars looked similar, but I am no professional.

The alternative theory is a motorcycle accident in Kenya.
