Obama's Eloquence Becomes Contagious
The hazards of such reliance on teleprompters!"Irish Prime Minister Brian Cowen was just a few paragraphs into an address at a St. Patrick's Day celebration at the White House when he realized something sounded way too familiar. Turns out, he was repeating the speech President Barack Obama had just given."
There's a lot to be said for Lincoln's approach of scribbling some remarks on some papernotes and giving the speech from those notes. And is not Lincoln Obama's model?
Needless to say, Mark Steyn manages a great riff on this one.
This sounds like beginning of a Twilight Zone episode. Is the Teleprompter really the brains of the operation? And, if so, why hasn't it nominated a new Deputy Treasury Secretary?
