If you listen to Rush Limbaugh, you already know the presumptive Democrat Presidential candidate, B. Hussein Obama, has a problem speaking extemporaneously. Get him away from a teleprompter, get him away from a podium with a pre-written, pre-approved speech, and the brilliant speaker hems and haws, stammers and stutters, searching for just the right talking point with which to answer a difficult question. Or any question posed to him by a competent journalist. (Is that an oxymoron?)
Just pay attention to any of his prepared sermons, oops, I mean speeches, then compare that delivery to the way he answers questions posed to him in his news conferences and interviews. These are relatively easy, softball questions put to Obama by the sycophant media whores who pass for reporters in today’s old guard media.
Obama doesn’t put himself into situations where he’ll be asked difficult questions from reporters, or even the general public. There’s no need. He’s given different answers to the same questions depending on when the question was asked, during the primaries or after. All you have to do is look at Obama’s answers to questions over time to see flip-flops galore.
I’m sure some smart political
advertiser is already compiling side-by-side footage of Obama contradicting himself
on a wide range of questions. It would
make for a terrific ad project for an aspiring advertiser.
I tried this once when I was
younger. I was supposed to give a book
report to my class on a book I hadn’t read.
So I tried to bluff my way through, reading the book as I presented it
for my report. My teacher knew what I
was doing. She caught me and told me
she knew I didn’t know the material by the way I was stammering, because I said
um almost every other word.
I learned my lesson - in the 2nd
grade.
When I hear someone hesitating,
stammering to find the right words to use, I know that person doesn’t have a
good grasp of the facts being presented.
Those who are in command of the material are confident, and have no
trouble addressing the topic at hand, usually without notes or prepared
text. Those who lack at least a
fundamental grasp of the material often try to bluff their way through.
That’s what I’m seeing in the B.
Hussein Obama media snow job.
Just as Hillary Rodham Clinton was
supposed to be the most brilliant woman in history, just as her husband Bill
Clinton was supposed to be the first black President, just as George W. Bush
was supposed to be a conservative, we’ve been sold a false bill of goods with
B. Hussein Obama.
I guess when he says he’s for
change, he’s really talking about his changes in position to suit the political
winds. At this point, B. Hussein Obama
looks like he’ll take any position to win votes. He’ll say and do anything to win, anything to avoid revealing his
liberal left-wing views.
B. Hussein Obama is the kind of
man who’s terrific at delivering a prepared sermon, at getting a crowd revved
up, a wonderful cheerleader. But we’re
not electing the head cheerleader. We’re
electing a President.
So, um, if you, um, support, um,
B. Hussein, um, Obama, um, because, um, you want, um, change, um, because, um,
change is, um, good, um, make sure you, um, know what, um, you’re, um, voting
for, um.
Take, um, a closer, um, look
before, um, you, um, buy this, um, candidate’s, um, sales hype. There, um, are no, um, truth in, um,
advertising, um, laws in, um, politics.
