Of more concern then the iPod is that Obama has no idea how to govern a constitutional republic.

I haven’t seen video of it and can’t judge, but there was nothing in the article to suggest he was joking.

The same way they lied about the deal with Quayle and misspelling potato -- he was set up, the truth of the matter is never told when it is brought up.

So typical.

All he understands and truly needs is a teleprompter and a good operator

“Check Snopes.com it tells the whole supermarket scanner story which is not true.”

I actually linked to that story in my original article at NewsBusters.

Did he go on and explain to everyone the great benefits associated with chain smoking?

I only smoked when I was in Iraq and I quit right afterwards,I don’t see how my X-box is some kind of detriment to my life.

I don’t know how to operate an I-Pod either. Who cares?

Not me. I have a perfectly fine MP3 player for a lot less money, 20 GB with swappable memory card.

*** Remember when the MSM went crazy over [and likely exaggerated] George H.W.'s supposed unfamiliarity with a supermarket scanner? ***

That was a pure hatchet job by the MSM. However, in this case I thinks the criticism is a bit of a stretch about Ohaha and an iPod. As I can't operate one either.

Nor can I use an Xbox, Play Station or any of those game gizmo thingys. When I go to my daughter and sil's house, my 9yo granddaughter has turn on 'that thing' so I can play Guitar Hero(1)

Even worse, I've had my 'new phone' for almost 3 years and I've yet to figure out how to use the %$#$ing CAMERA! And I mean for 'stills', forget the video function, you need a PhD to figure that out.

(1) To me 'Guitar Hero' is the biggest ripoff in eons. For the price of the 'game thingy' plus the 'guitar game operator' (sold separately, natch), you can buy a darn good REAL GUITAR and have money left over for music lessons(2) . Then after a couple weeks you can REALLY play 'Smoke On The Water' (with the amp cranked to 11) to your hearts content, and irritate your neighbors until they threaten to call the cops.

(2) and Band aids for your fingers when they start bleeding before you build up callouses. 'Dire Straits' wasn't lying in 'Money for Nothing'. The pinky finger is the worse -- ouch!)
(that song is Soooo un-pc it couldn't be aired today (listen to the words closely)

After a while, Obama get a Teflon coating because people tune you out.

Oh puh-leeze. Obama already makes Slick Willie seem like he was covered in glue. The point is that Obama suggests he's "Everyman" with his claims, and the mediabots will accept it as the One's cute little quirk and make no issue of his faked or real ignorance like they would if it were Bush (or any republican).
