POTUS ♥ Tele
bahahaha I remember that freak out about sarah palin and her notes-on-her hand. Obama totally surprised Indian officials with his teleprompter skills.
In India, politicians generally speak extemporaneously or from notes or text written on paper. The common perception, explained lawmaker Sanjay Nirupam of Mumbai, is that the really good speakers don’t need to have text in front of them.

The quote goes a long way toward demonstrating the lack of difference between the ideology of the leadership of the two major political parties in America. Indeed, President Obama has only continued and expanded the bailouts, “stimulus” spending increases, and deficit culture that Bush encouraged during his presidency.
What does this say about Obama’s blame game? He is blaming the man he is emulating.
