TelePrompters

You've got to be kidding me:
Look, a TelePrompter is a tool, like anything else, and using the right tool for the right job is part of competent performance. Using it a press briefings, though, looks more like Obama is helpless without a script than a man relying on technology for success. Had the media paid attention to Obama’s disastrous off-script performances during the campaign, he might not be at the podium at all now.

(emphasis added)
Tonight at 11:00 -- does the President use SpellCheck to enhance his speeches?

MORE: I don't know why I bother sometimes, but this is too rich:
Although President George W. Bush was mercilessly criticized for his poor speaking skills, he at least could do without a teleprompter.
Do fine without a TelePromter? Were all of these intentional?
