Huh? That's, er, surreal...

The thing about this is, he was coming out with good points and he was speaking very powerfully and eloquently until he came to talk about the woman who died.

Almost immediately after bringing up the note he shrank, his points had less impact and he started umming and ahhing, as though he was fully aware of using the woman as prop was very selfish.

If he hadn't have brought her up I would have said good speech, but I agree halogamer, this is bad and I think Obama knew that.

To be honest, I'm wandering if his spin doctor put him up to it. I guess we don't know.

No he just read it off the teleprompter as he always does and always will do until Jan 2013 at least.  His entire presidency is scripted talking points.  That reminds me that today would have been the 99th bday of Reagan.  He would put Obummer to shame.

I don't even know what to believe about Obama's speeches, some sources say he reads from a teleprompter, other sources say he works on all of his speeches until minutes before he goes up to the podium.

I doubt he does.  Jon Favreau does most of the work as Director of Speechwriting.  Besides, Obama can't waste his time for us lowly citizens (we cling to guns and religion with antipathy most of the time

Obama is a scripted salesman of BS in the end. Anyway, I am going to bed since I was up all night.  Out.
