It was inevitable that the foreign press would eventually catch on to the buffoonish nature of Obama’s non-teleprompted persona. And so it has. The Guardian’s John Crace updates us on what the POTUS is thinking when functioning sans TOTUS. Here’s an excerpt:
Barack Obama: ”I, I, would say that, er … pause [I HAVEN'T A CLUE] … if you look at … pause [WHO IS THIS NICK ROBINSON JERK?] … the, the sources of this crisis … pause [JUST KEEP GOING, BUDDY] … the United States certainly has some accounting to do with respect to . . . pause [I'M IN WAY TOO DEEP HERE] … a regulatory system that was inadequate to the massive changes that have taken place in the global financial system …pause, close eyes [THIS IS GOING TO GO DOWN LIKE A CROCK OF S**T BACK HOME. HELP]. I think what is also true is that … pause [I WANT NICK ROBINSON TO DISAPPEAR] … here in Great Britain … pause [S**T, GORDY'S THE HOST, DON'T LAND HIM IN IT] … here in continental Europe … pause [DAMN IT, BLAME EVERYONE.] … around the world. We were seeing the same mismatch between the regulatory regimes that were in place and er … pause [I'VE LOST MY TRAIN OF THOUGHT AGAIN] … the highly integrated, er, global capital markets that have emerged … pause [I'M REALLY WINGING IT NOW].
You know, this would be *really* funny if it weren’t so sad. As Crace alludes to (”the World’s Greatest Orator (™all news organisations“)), the news agencies refuse to recognize what an incompetent Obama is without his binky. But the truth is slowly seeping out, despite the press. It’s not just that he’s an inept communicator. It’s that he just can’t think on his feet. And unfortunately, his indecision will undoubtedly be exploited by those who hate us - they will see his weakness and incompetence and prey upon it

How funny.

Meanwhile, our own media continues to gush about our Supreme Orator and his Phenomenally Gorgeous Goddess Wife.
It’s like Americans have been so gullible on the Bush LIed™ lie that the morons in the dying media believe we can be brainwashed to ignore our own senses.
The problem with America is stupidity. I’m not saying there should be capital punishment for stupidity, but why don’t we just take the safety labels off of everything and let the problem solve itself?

This is an instance, much like the marketplace itself, where I would definitely welcome survival of the fittest.
"And prey upon us"

Note to John Crace:
TNJim Saturday, April 4th at 10:24PM EDT (link)The Great Orator is only so when the TOTUS is present. Otherwise you get what you heard at that press conference, what we heard during the debates with McCain. He’s fairly decent without the TOTUS when he’s being interviewed by a sympathetic MSM-type like 60 Minutes but even then you get some ums, ers, and pauses. (Oh, but he’s being thoughtful, doncha know. Choosing his words carefully.) Uh-huh.
Too bad for Nick Robinson. That may be the only question he’ll ever get to ask Obama.

It is because he is being taught
robmikpet Saturday, April 4th at 11:32PM EDT (link)these things. I believe Obama would answer questions like this flawlessly if he said what he believed and not what he was taught.
I am sure he would love to shout “Capitalism has failed the masses we are going to tear it down and start a socialist utopia on earth”, “Are enemies are the reactionary proletariat and they will pay for their abuse of the working classes”
Crace will
Deskpilot Saturday, April 4th at 11:35PM EDT (link)NEVER be extended a job offer in the US with a critical keyboard like that. just imagine if he were ever to start a relationship with TOTUS, BHO would finally gat some honesty to pass across his lips.
The golden rule of comedy is alive and well, “All humor is rooted in truth, else it is just a lie.”
