As time progresses, it becomes more and more obvious that our glorious President is completely and utterly disfunctional without his precious teleprompter:
President Obama’s speech at the National Academy of Sciences Monday morning hit a brief snag when Obama got ahead of his script.
Laying his plan for a President’s Council of Advisors on Science and Technology, Obama began to name the members of PCAST listed in his prepared remarks – before realizing he’d already introduced them, earlier in his speech.
“In addition to John – sorry, the – I just noticed I jumped the gun here,” Obama said, pausing for several seconds as he looked at the prompter. “Go ahead. Move it up. I had already introduced all you guys.”
No memorization. No notes. No off-the-cuff improvisation. Nope, total and absolute reliance on a piece of hardware that can go buggy, bogged, or otherwise broken in a matter of seconds.
I would propose that an enterprising (and very gutsy) hacker attempt to infiltrate the POTUS teleprompter system, but it would appear as though President Barack Hussein Obama is making a mockery of himself enough as it is.
