1. The new wingnut meme is that O is "inarticulate".

Unlike, say, bush and mccain. What idiocy.

2. I wish I had a TelePrompTer right now...

...to tell me how to respond, because I'm speechless.

The knee-jerk hatred from the GOP sheeple is amazing.

12. "OBGYNs can't practice their love"

and other great f**-up statements from the current occupant shows the lie in that slur. Boosh and McSame are no great speakers.
Obama does just fine.

13. Bush and McCain can't do it WITH a teleprompter..

the GOOP has got their paid trolls out in force. It's a cheap way for them to spread their message.

14. Well that's just crazy.

I don't like Obama but even I think he's not reading a teleprompter. Or at least not making it obvious like Bush does.

16. "Attack The Strength"

The Rover game...try to negate a strength with a non-stop barage of talking points. Plus this is a feel-good device for the wingnuts. They see how bad things are going, how lame their candidate is and they need something/anything to throw out there and hope it resonates.

17. Or his eloquence is bad

http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/feedarticle/7672777

The new theme is that we "distrust" those who are eloquent!

Our local newspaper carried this article with a headline that Obama's eloquence would "hurt him."

:rofl:

18. Are you kidding me?!

:wow:

When something that nonsensical is said, I think it has to be a parrot. They hear something, they say it back, but they have no idea about its veracity. There's no way anyone could be familiar with Obama and come up with that.

19. That accusation is a perfect example of Rovism, whereby the GOPers

take a strength of the opponent (especially if it is a weakness of their candidate) and turn it into a negative. I do not believe that Obama even needs a script. There was no teleprompter yesterday in Berlin. I have seen Barak speak twice, neither time with a prompter. In Louisville in '06 he spoke at the baseball field to a large crowd with no notes at all for around one half hour. Remember what they did to John Kerry a legitimate war hero if there ever was one...especially compared to "looney tunes."
