Nothing new here. First we had a president who couldn't outsmart a bowl of corn flakes now we have one who is like dirt on a windy day. He's all over the road.

That is very interesting. Obama is a great orator but short on substance, as are most politicians when they see the books and get advise on many issues from those in the know!!!???

No, Doug, he's a great reader.

Seems like every time he tries to talk w/o one, he falls flat on his face. Short on substance is EXACTLY right. He needs to be able to think on his feet, think for himself, to be a great orator.

Why do you think The Great Communicator did such a great job? He ignored the teleprompter and said what he really believes.

Who was the Great Communicator?

[Rumdog]

You really thunk Obama falls on his face without a teleprompter? That's a good one!

[AndyKunz]

Who was the Great Communicator?

You gotta be kidding! Even his detractors understood it!

MSNBC: http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/4152396/ (Be sure to click on "Farewell Address")

Amazing! Simply amazing. Very politically naive. Obviously a product of the State-controlled media and the State-controlled education system.

This country is SO screwed.

If you tied his hands behind his back he couldn't speak at all.

Ask a simple question and this is how you respond? Actually I'm not a product of anything more than God and my parents. Politically naive? Not even close. I'm neither Democrat or Republican. I think one who is politically naive is one who blindly follows a party line without regard for right or wrong. Just because I do not follow your exact line of thinking (thank goodness) does not make me anything less than who I am. I am going to take the high road here and not return the insult.

I find it amazing how some people will resort to "nit picking" to determine the full spectrum of character of a person. I haven't seen a teleprompter when Obama talks to the people. Take in to consideration, He is a minority in a very important position. There are many who would like to harm him just on basis of the color of his skin. How comfortable would you feel in a public arena with this in the back of your mind?
