TelePrompterPres Phones It In

Some notes from 0bama and tonights “press conference:”

1) 0bama’s an ignoramous. He doesn’t know how to pronounce “Orion.” Like it’s *that* fricken hard. And even if on the odd chance he’s never heard of it – unlikely, given the constellation AND Project Constellation, which as President he really aught to be aware of – it shows he’s a lazy schmuck who couldn’t be bothered to try to know what he was going to be yapping about in advance.

“Orion?”

“Oar-ree-un.”

“You’re putting me on.”

2) Speaking of which… he got rid of the teleprompter.

And replaced it with a big screen TV waaaaaaay in the back, where nobody would see it. Except some people with cameras.

I guess it’s too damned bad the teleprompter doesn’t spell things out fo-ne-tick-lee.

We’ll recover from this recession, but it will take time, it will take patience and it will take an understanding that, when we all work together, when each of us looks beyond our own short-term interest to the wider set of obligations we have towards each other, that’s when we succeed, that’s when we prosper and that’s what is needed right now.

Ah, “social responsibilities.”
