I don't necessarily agree with all of Obama's reasoning and wisdom behind his policy decisions, but I feel no personal compulsion to delude myself into thinking Obama is unintelligent or lacking the ability to voice a coherent argument.

Bigots Versus Teleprompters |

Mortal enemies. I find it funny how bigots view a black man speaking intelligently with the same sort of incredulity as watching a magician performing a magic trick. He's not really smart. He's reading a teleprompter. But Obama did great in all the debates. He beat McCain in every single one. He's great at interviews and question-answer sessions (even with hostile crowds).

I have a dream that one day bigots will be able to join hands with teleprompters as brothers and sisters.

Haven't seen ya in the Global Warming thread for a while.... we miss you. A debate I won long ago. (Don't worry; I borrowed Obama's teleprompter.) If you want to disprove climate change, you have to make one of two arguments: 1. we're not increasing the amount of greenhouse gases in our atmosphere, and/or 2. greenhouse gases don't have well-known physical properties as understood through scientific experimentation. And both arguments are patently absurd and easily disproveable.

At least teleprompters never have to complain about being forced to sit in the back of the auditorium.

I think what he is saying is that Obama is actually telling the Teleprompter what to say, instead of the reverse.

Not even worth debating with the laughable title of the thread.

At least I think that's what's going on here. |

It's again nice to see the libs reinforcing the fact that they are fixated on race.

A bigot is always going to win in a fight against a telelprompter. A person vs a thing. The bigot has fists. Dumb topic

It's a skill that is still lost on most. (Making this place once again fun). And, I think some posters genuinely have a problem with Obama using teleprompters because they see it as him being scripted and disingenuous, independent of race. These are the posters who are going to lash out the most by citing this common "everything is racist" line. The next 10 pages of this thread will be an OT tapestry. It will feature the usual suspects reciting the 'racist' line. It'll feature people deliberately trolling. There will be some racism. Lulls will be had. And for me, well, this is going to be treat. Let the fun begin. |
