Lemme get this straight.

[Mayberry Machiavelli]

Sarah Palin actually mocked President Obama for using a teleprompter within the VERY SPEECH where she could clearly be seen with stupid-ass crib notes written on her damned HAND?

Do I have that right?

[DrDan]

1. apparently you are correct

[theoldman]

2. A teleprompter is the best way to give a long speech.

At work I used view graphs which are better than reading from notes. No one can make a long speech without notes. Even the pastor at our church reads from the bible and occasionally looks at his notes to make sure he has not forgotten anything.

3. As Ed McMahon would say from beyond the grave...

... "You are correct sir, yes! Hahaha!"

[pretzel4gore]

4. the genius es!

them reactionaries are genius...buncha genius....es(?)... Sara palin is example of their genius in action. She's a goofy stooge who wipes her butt with US flag (giggitey) and spits on sidewalks, while having filthy sex with hockeydads etc, but that's only with no cameras around. When cameras around, Ms palin, the patriot, hockey mama, churchgoer, and soon, wraps flag around her and sings 'god bless merikka' in Alaskan. that proves she's
1)Patriotic
2) nice person
3) photorgasmic
4) brave versus them hippy drug fiends who love evil

what more do you wannt in yer president?

[jenmito]

5. No- it's even worse. Those notes on her hand were to answer "pre-screened" questions!

Could you imagine her getting caught trying to do that while debating Obama?

[MiniMe]

6. It's the Hillbilly Teleprompter!

Borrowed from another DUer for that one.

[Mayberry Machiavelli]

7. Hmm Wasilla Teleprompter LOL.

[ginnyinWI]

8. when she said that, she totally ignored

how Obama spoke to the GOP and then took their questions with no notes or teleprompter. But the truth has no place in her/their world.

[abelenkpe]

9. I have no idea why the teleprompter

is even a talking point of the right. Everyone uses them, pundits and politicians alike. Yet Obama uses it well and everyone else looks like a jackass reading from a teleprompter. They are just jealous, stupid and weak.

[progressoid]

17. That's all they have.

Well, that and the birth certificate thing. :crazy:

[Jennicut]

10. Obama can do a Q and A without a teleprompter, that is for long speeches

She needs it to give answers to simple questions.

[Greenpeach]

11. Notes would have to be on paper.

You can't write with crayon on a teleprompter

[hisownpetard]

12. And you can't write on a teleprompter with lipstick, either.

[RC]

13. Sarah used the original poor persons Palm pilot to let her know where to go next.

[hisownpetard]

14. Btw, a speaker only needs a teleprompter if they have something to say!

[donheld]

15. Precious isn't it.

:eyes: Can the bitch get any dumber?

[Avalux]

16. That's how they roll. Accuse their enemies of doing exactly what they do (or worse).

Shrub did it all the time; remember how during the 2004 campaign the GOP successfully painted war hero Kerry as a wimp and Shrub as a tough guy?

Of course, this tactic wouldn't work if the media did their job.

[Flash Bazbo]

18. In 40 minutes she looked at her notes approximately 489 times...

I went back to the video today and counted. And those weren't 3x5 cards she was using, either. She gathered the pages as she was leaving the podium and they made quite a *thunk* as she tapped them against the podium.
