Oh God He Uses A Teleprompter

Is this what the Republicans are becoming? The sniveling party? Lately there has been criticism of President Obama because he uses a teleprompter.

I really, really don't get this.

Why are they upset with the president for using a tool that helps him give clear and concise speeches? The hell? I truly am astounded by this one.

Lets look at their posterboy, the guy they stuck us with the last eight years:

"I'm telling you there's an enemy that would like to attack America, Americans, again. There just is. That's the reality of the world. And I wish him all the very best." --George W. Bush, Washington, D.C., Jan. 12, 2009

"And they have no disregard for human life." --George W. Bush, on the brutality of Afghan fighters, Washington, D.C., July 15, 2008

"I'll be long gone before some smart person ever figures out what happened inside this Oval Office." --George W. Bush, Washington, D.C., May 12, 2008

"I thank the diplomatic corps, who is here as well." --George W. Bush, Washington, D.C., March 12, 2008

Bushisms

Bush did a real good job without a prompter did he?

Need I go on? So while the useless Republican party continues to snivel, perhaps they should look at their own party and ask themselves, is this criticism even legitimate?

Give me a break people. You've criticize Obama for taking of his suit jacket, for confusing a french window for a door (although that was funny), for taking an hour or two off to watch a basketball game and drink a beer, for using a teleprompter and for mispronouncing Orion.

Are you going to grow up and learn to criticize his polices ever? You know, focus on IMPORTANT THINGS like the economy or foreign relations with N. Korea, Iran and Afghanistan? Or help us reunite with the nations Bush alienated? No? You're going to just sit down and nitpick the president?

Then I see the death of the entire Republican party.

You have concerns over his plans to bail out the economy, and I can understand that. This is good, this is healthy. But nitpicking seems to be your current focus.

This will kill you.

Please, you can support the president and disagree with him. But right now, all I see is mostly whining.

"A dictatorship would be a heck of a lot easier, there's no question about it." -George W. Bush, July 27, 2001
