Facebook friend Occupy This sent this to me (I was also sent a photo that inspired this post). I revised it by adding a teleprompter, and thought it needed caption. It's up to you to decide, and I'll put the best one on the teleprompter.Leave your idea in the comment below. Winner gets *drum roll* BRAGGING RIGHTS!!! (this ain't The Price is Right people). I'll post the winner on Monday (so I'll consider anything until midnight Sunday).So have at it, what does the teleprompter say?!?

According to a threat posted on Anonymous information website Anon Relations.net, the loosely banded hacker collective will attempt to disrupt the State of the Union address Tuesday by preventing it from being broadcast online. **SNIP** The AnonRelations.net post cites a litany of offenses as motive for the threatened attack, from "tyrannical" legislation to the treatment of Internet heroes like Aaron Swartz and Bradley Manning. It goes on to state that hackers will "form a virtual blockade between Capitol Hill and the Internet," although onlookers may be skeptical of the group's ability to do this. A recent campaign against Israel during...

The reflection doesn't need to be in reverse, the poster was written that way...so the reflection is right :-P

This video runs 1:29 seconds, and is shocking how many of the speeches on the political stump of Barak Obama are being repeated today. If America votes in this speech maker, which never produced results there is no one to blame, but the ELECTORATE.

I found this graphic on Facebook and I modified it a bit...

Until last week, I'd never heard of Candy Crowley. At first, I thought she was Monica Crowley's sister. Then I found out Monica's sister's name is Jocelyn. Then I started wondering if she was related in any way to Alistair - you know, the muse of Led Zeppelin back in the 70s....

The term “cleaned his clock” took on a whole new meaning at Wednesday night’s first presidential debate. An energized and textbook perfect Mitt Romney dominated a lethargic and tired-looking Barack Obama. To sum up the former governor’s performance, he outhustled, outfacted, outenergized and outinformed the incumbent. The lopsidedness of the verbal brawl was not lost on liberal ideologues such as Bill Maher and Chris Matthews who were quick to raise the white flag in round one of three televised debates this month. It was as if Romney’s insomnia-inducing convention speech had never happened. The former governor commanded the stage focusing...

Thousands of President Obama supporters turned out in in Madison, Wisc., for a rally following Wednesday night’s debate in Denver. The mood was somber, to say the least, as they waited to enter Bascom Mall at the University of Wisconsin Thursday afternoon. University of Wisconsin students and fellow Wisconsinites had mixed reviews on the president's performance. I talked to supporters of the president who had watched the debate, asking how they thought the president did. One after the other said they were left unimpressed and “not inspired,” seemingly depressed and lethargic in their continuing support of the president. More than...

Perhaps it's time to start a petition drive to permit the President to use a teleprompter during the debates. It simply isn't fair, the way it's structured - Romney seems to have learned what involved in having the top job. But the President is very good, when he's reading the words of others. Why not give him a chance, considering all he's been through? LOL.

The topic of Obama and his teleprompters (one of which was stolen a year ago, causing a public appearance delay) has been so pervasive in the "counterculture" that it led to the creation of the term TOTUS. But it wasn't until today that TOTUS officially became part of the mainstream media lexicon courtesy of this slideshow via Reuters, which should explain just who pulls the strings.

Another unfortunate, unphotoshoped, photo of Obama, from Reuters of all places...

Someone in the crowd at a Paul Ryan Lakewood rally yelled at the congressman "Look, no teleprompter!" Ryan responded by saying "That's right."

In yet another classic display of the liberal media, CNN anchor Soledad O'Brien has been caught red-handed using left-wing blog Talking Points memo to counter Virginia House of Delegates member Barbara Comstock on the House GOP budget. As Ali A. Ackbar of Viral Read discovered: Tonight, she was the substitute host for Anderson Cooper, a program that boasts of its reputation for “keeping [politicians] honest.” During her interview with Virginia House of Delegates Republican member Barbara Comstock, O’Brien became visibly flustered and was actually caught doing finger stress exercises as she attempt to insert editorial commentary while her guest, a...

President Obama said Thursday that the New York Jets quarterback situation would make him "pretty nervous" if he were a fan of the team. The Jets acquired Denver phenom Tim Tebow in the off-season, but are playing him as a backup to Mark Sanchez. "I've got to tell you, I don't like the idea of a quarterback controversy at the start of the season," Obama said on Columbus' 97.1 The Fan in a Thursday call-in appearance on The Common Man & The Torg's radio program. (Also on POLITICO: NY Jets brush off Obama critique) "If I was a Jets fan,...

First Lady Michelle Obama was fired up yesterday, introducing a new rallying cry to supporters during her appearance at a rally in North Carolina yesterday. The First Lady encouraged supporters to tell everyone everything that President Obama had done for the country. "I want you to tell them how many jobs he created," she said. "Tell them how much money he’s put back in the pockets of American people." Obama explained that everything the president had done was now at stake, including cheaper medicine for seniors, providing free birth control for women, and

One cannot help noticing the struggle between Barack Obama’s natural instincts and the serene and benevolent persona he projects to the world. Beneath the visage of a cosmetically populist, post-racial, post-partisan reformer who wants to “perfect” America and to have “millionaires and billionaires” “pay their fair share” is just another condescending, self-important, sarcastic, academic liberal Democrat, who believes in false consciousness and in scholastic theories that success in life can be attributed to birth or luck or community but not to individual effort and grit. Obama may be talented at self-fashioning, but he cannot maintain his public face constantly. The...

An Open Letter To President Obama Dear Prez, Baraky, may I call you Baraky, this seems like an intimate conversation and I assign nicknames to all my friends, it is a country thing. Speech problems are like most other problems, the best solution is usually the easiest one. Even though you may be a fairly new reader, I commend your ability to read and express yourself with the written word. Many people would assume you have been reading for years. As reading skills improve, communication skills also improve. During these periods of personal growth, it is imperative to expand your...

As far as I know TOTUS doesn’t need Ambien to go into sleep mode and he didn’t run into anybody in his car so I’m not sure why he’s been placed on administrative leave. I’m afraid this can only mean one thing: “Hello, my name is Barry, and I am an addict.” Addicted since 2007 Uh oh: Teleprompter Rehab? Right before the reelection? What on earth are our puppeteers thinking? So, brainiacs at Team Obama Central, how’s the plan working out for us so far? Do you really think we need any more slipups when Big Guy goes off prompter?...
