It was bound to happen

Our Teleprompter President
Obama Scrapbook Fodder


A lot of people missed this teleprompter moment because, well, it didn't receive much coverage in the American media, and where it did, it was mischaracterized as Obama saving the day.  Oh, and there was that post St. Patrick's day hangover.  And then there are those who turn the news off the second his visage flashes across the screen.  Even if you did see it, I must have this for my electronic "Obama, dumbest man in America if anything happens to Biden" file.

WASHINGTON -- Irish Prime Minister Brian Cowen was just a few paragraphs into an address at a St. Patrick's Day celebration at the White House when he realized something sounded way too familiar. Turns out, he was repeating the speech President Barack Obama had just given.

Cowen was set to speak twice at the White House on Tuesday night because there were two different parties going on at the executive mansion. No matter -- he would give the same speech to the two different audiences.

But Cowen was 20 seconds into his second address when it dawned on him that he was giving word for word the speech that Obama had just read from the same teleprompter.

Cowen stopped and looked back at the president to say, "That's your speech."

Obama laughed and returned to the podium to offer what might have been Cowen's remarks. In doing so, President Obama thanked President Obama for inviting everyone over. [FOXNEWS]

Heck of a day yesterday. Missed Rushie on this one, but that video is the great. In fact, until the dbl click, I thought it was your's. Wait, too sanitized. ;p

"The Teleprompter" reminds of The Little Toaster movie. Enjoyed it as much as the kids.

Our country is being led by TP. Used TP. More than once. I for one bow to the new leader, Teleprompter, can't be any worse than what we got now.

Turing word: slammi. I gonna consider my new buddy the 'prompter as slammi.
