Obama trades in the trusty old teleprompter for a big screen TV instead

Was this an effort to make sure he didn’t just thank himself in last night’s press conference? Obama read that boring and pointless opening statement from one massive TV monitor from the back and middle of the East Room. White House officials removed the normal glass teleprompters that usually are positioned on both sides of the podium. That change likely a reaction to the focus on the President’s heavy use of teleprompters.” Did the White House think no one would show the TV instead? Knowing their arrogance, I wouldn’t be surprised.

Good news. At least he didn’t need his teleprompter to ask Ann Compton’s “hardball” question about race.
