Spencer Bachus: It’s Time for You to Go
by Andrew BreitbartWhen Peter Schweizer uncovered evidence of insider trading by Republican chairman of the House Financial Services Committee Spencer Bachus (R-AL), and 60 Minutes reported on it, I was the first person to call for Rep. Bachus to resign. That was November 14, 2011. Now, with news that the Office...

Commrade Barry, reading to the little children.
What a contrast to this:
He needs it to talk to children??
You know…I'm actually quite speechless on this one. Teleprompters for kiddies? I'll be over in the corner if anybody needs me.
Normally I am right with you guys but actually something else does need to be said so it doesn’t look like you are misinforming people. The big O used the teleprompter to speak to the media after he was done speaking with the school children. Now why he needs a teleprompter every time he speaks to another group of adults is another thing but I still think it is sort of misrepresented here.
He is terrible without the TPOTUS. When he speaks without the teleprompter I always wonder if he really wrote his books or maybe someone else wrote them for him.
CL-
The goat stayed home to tend the garden.
all the kiddos look at the teacher and collectively say the same thing–"and you gripe at US for using notes????"
If only one of the kids had the cajones to say "YOU LIE".
When I first saw the pic of POTUS & TOTUS at the elementary school, I thought for certain it was a photoshop. I was actually a little peeved that I hadn't thought of it first….
He's making it so easy these days…usually, you have to reach in order to bust someone's nads, but not this windowlicker…it's like he's just handing it to us. Fascinating….
I say we put obammy's portrait on the 2 cent food stamp……………………………………good for nothin.
As long as you are quiet and don't eat the Playdough.
Syn don't worry……………………………they said it was for the "press".
But I didn't realize any of those kids were reporters.
ROFL! This rivals Dukakis in the tank and Kerry in the NASA bunny suit.
Probably eating arugula and fertilizering the spinnach.
That's funny LOL!
That bunny suit was PRICELESS!
Barry had a little lamb
It's fleece was black as soot
Every time he viewed the prompter
It kicked him in the butt
………and Barry said to the little children: A………B……….C……..D………E………..F………MOVE TELEPROMPTER TEXT..G…….H……..I………………….
Gary__K
That's the only time you wonder?
No Virginia, he did not write the books.
This is pretty funny.

Obama is pro-business after all. Company that makes teleprompters has increased production and "saved" all the employees jobs.
I hope that someone asks Beltway Bob if this is part of their carefully crafted plan to restore America's image abroad.
Be nice guys, the prompter wasn't for the speech for the kiddies, it was for the two reporters and one photographer they could fit in the room after they set up.
From an article on World Net Daily about Ellie Light :
""Today, the president is being attacked as if he'd promised that our problems would wash off in the morning. He never did," she writes. "It's time for Americans to realize that governing is hard work, and that a president can't just wave a magic wand and fix everything." "
Sounds like one of our Troll friends that post in here.
Think about this for a minute. At one point, someone must have said:
"Barry, lets set up a podium in the classroom, position the teleprompters on each side and deliver your message to the children in a truly presidential fashion"…..
No one said, "uhh, ya know, that's pretty bloody stupid, we're in a 6th grade classroom. Barry should just take one of those little kiddie chairs and become one with the kids"….
WTH?
Do we or should we fear the POTUS….or his merry band of miscreants? I choose the entire freakshow. At no time in my life have I actually feared the incompetence and ignorance of the POTUS, until now.
When will the puppetmaster finally step out from behind the curtain? I'm really tired of seeing the little wooden head.
Finally!
Here is the proof of someone is behind the curtain, the invisible hand that makes Barry talk:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k4O4WiCfGow&fe...
"I'd rather be a really good one-term president than a mediocre two-term president," he told ABC's "World News" anchor Diane Sawyer in an exclusive interview today.
***
Well mr. oWahBa, you are out of luck on that one.
It's a year too late and Trillions of $$ short of your having a chance.
No it isn't, but I always think that when I hear him rambling, he doesn't have a mind that could write a coherent book.
I am glad BHO used a teleprompter. Imagine the trauma for those kids hearing him, a, you know, ah , huh, trying to speak coherently.
Dont forget he gave himself a B+……
I give him a F-.
BHO's handlers told him to address the issues of the middle class. He show's up at the 6th grade class.
C'mon. We're talking about the same people who tell Michelle that she looks FABULOUS in boob belts.
Would that count as one or two… jobs created or saved?
Good point….I use her pics to scare crows away in the back 40….teamed with Janeane Garofalo, the coyotes join the crows.
Seems to me he could have used FLASH CARDS with these kids ! I suspect he used the TOTUS while raising his two daughters…and still does ! (grin) "Ummm girls ! Let me be clear on the uh bed time uh …… What a complete and total moron. I really wonder if he knows he is the LAUGHINGSTOCK of the planet !
Gary__K
No can't be, it isn't written in CAPS.
Gary__K
He doesn't have a mind that could read a coherent book.
Obama's Astroturfing…
The question isn't "Who's 'Ellie Light'?"
The question is "Who told all those newspaper editors to PUBLISH 'her' letters?"
Talk about dumbing down the schools!
BREAKING NEWS from Big Brother:
You too can HOST YOUR OWN marshmallow-roasting Kumbaya-singing Little Red Book-reading PARTY for Chairman Obamao!
http://my.barackobama.com/page/content/sotuwatchp...
PS- Wow! Obama wasted no time bringing his old Campaign Manager Plouffe back into the mix…of quicksand.
My response to Obama's SOTU? STFU!
Read this and weep., Yes Geoff, he's a puppet alright.
http://pajamasmedia.com/blog/what-if-ayers-joke-a...
aaaaa….aaaa…uhhh… Knock, knock.
Who's there?
aaaaa….aaa…uhhh…Bush's fault.
What was the speech about? Let me guess. "How to conceal school records?"
Someone earlier wondered if Obama wrote any of his books. Just in case you missed this over at P.J. media
http://pajamasmedia.com/blog/what-if-ayers-joke-a...
Exactly!
THAT IS THE QUESTION!
Isn't some court hearing a case re the birth certificate today?
If I were a parent I wouldn't want them anywhere near this socialist/marxist/progressive… he lies and obviously can't speak without TOTUS…
Did anyone else see the teleprompter set up so he could talk to his own staff and cabinet and the Middle Class summit?
Apparently he needs a script when talking on economic issues. Otherwise all that Marxist rhetoric is the first thing that comes to mind and out of his mouth.
And everywhere that Barry went
A teleprompter had to be sent.
Folks, check this out:
http://my.barackobama.com/page/content/sotuwatchp...
Plug in your zip code and see where the libtards will gather.
LOL You may be right.
you mean like this one….hiccup with the teleprompter at family dinner….
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aXQTaWjMoFw
The WND article says that the WH has a web site that you can write comments on and with a click of the mouse away the spam goes to allot of newspapers. It seems to me that a newspaper can see where the letter came from.
Don't forget to also thank are "educational system" for developing Commrade Barry, our affirmative-action leader!
State of the Union Watch Party
Wednesday, January 27 8:30 PM 24 East 45th Street (Savannah, GA)
Please join us in watching the State of the Union address! All points of view are welcome as long as you are prepared to listen as…
Guess I wont be going there.
Who in Sam's Hell let Mr Obama into Our Schools!.? He's practising his lying speech!
Notice the Security Guard in the back? He's making sure that the kids don't steal the equipment.
CL-
And in the next lesson… it went A……….C……….O………R………..N………..S…………E……….I…………U………….MMMM……….MMMM……….MMMM
I'd of kept my child out of school that day! j/k
He's there to start a new political party. His happens to be failing.
It sure looks like it. I noticed the electric cord strung across the ceiling right away, being an electrician.
500,000 jobs saved. Hail Obama!!
If I don't make a good president it's not my fault! It's the fault of the guy with his hand up my butt!
See Obama pose. Pose, Obama, pose. See Obama read. Read, Obama, read. See Obama talk. Talk, Obama, talk. See Obama act…………..we're waiting.
No, the reporters are children. Simple adoring children
Hopefully something will happen so he's only an 18 month Pres.
I want to make this perfectly clear….(repeat 3 times so they get it)
All "without a negro dialect" according to Dingy Harry.
Message to Barry: In the immortal words of Bill Engvall……"Here's your sign"
I want to make this perfectly clear. We have a crisis. This is Mr Obama's escape mechanism to avoid the pressures at the White House. Don't worry, Gibbs is in charge…and why doesn't Gibbs have a teleprompter?
We need equal teleprompter rights. Ground Control to TP-1, Come in pleez..Whar U at?
I can only imagine hes reading "Cloudy with a chance of Meat-HEADS"
"Only" for that ONE BIG OBama donator! That is fascist/marxist ideology for you!
I just figured he wanted them to meet the real president. Of course he probably should have just sent the TOTUS by itself. It would have saved the taxpayers a few bucks
Well he's close, he'll be a bad one-term President.
Obama doesn't care! He knows that he will make us the laughing stock of the whole world!
Without the teleprompter, Bill O'Reilly would heat BO for lunch in an interview. That is, if O'Reilly wanted to pull a Barney on him, but I don't think he would.
Correction: that should be "EAT" him for lunch.
Is that magic carpet he's standing on the same as a NASCAR jumpsuit with all the endorsement patches? SEIU, Media Matters, NBC, Code Pink, etc. We need a closer look.
Remember the video of Bush speaking on the WTC rubble with a megaphone–no teleprompter, no notes, just speaking to the American people. Sometimes I miss a president who can just speak his mind without a speechwriter crafting his every word.
Then again, Obama didn't get elected president by speaking his mind but rather by deceiving the gullible.
President Obama is seen here teaching the class the Pledge of Allegiance:
'I Pledge Allegiance to you, Barr.
Hussein Obama, President.
And to your Prompter, which it stands.
One nation under you,
Divisible by race, and justice for all terrorists.
O, man.
Gary was just kidding
This is TOO funny!!! What a lightweight! I've said it before and I'll say it again (even after one full year as president)… Empty Suit!!!
Why shouldn't Obama use a teleprompter to recite a pre-written approved message.
The teachers all recite pre-written approved lessons in class.
Certainly we are not suggesting that sixth-graders be exposed to original thought.
Original thought! when in Obama's life experience has he ever had the opportunity to try one out.
Pompus POTUS.
There is a strong case using credible analysis techniques that strongly suggest he did not write his own books.
I'd rather something happen to Congress this November so he can be a lame-duck.
Hey Syntax, you know we have our differences but I do appreciate your sense of humor.
No matter how many times I see it, I can't stop laughing.
And they had the balls to bust on Bush.
Exactly. The smartest man in the world can't even deliver some minor comments without his ridiculous set up. The funny thing is he's too effing dense, as are his brainless handlers, to see how stupid he made himself look with this pic. Everyone is laughing at him. He's nothing but one joke after another.
I love this revelation that governing and being president is "hard." Oh boo -effing -hoo!
You never know when some little kid is going to use Obama's misstatements and flubs against him. And even the kids are starting to question his leadership, which is a reflection of their parents changing views. Better safe than sorry
"Greatest communicator of all time". Isn't that what his kissup media types say about him? What an absolute empty suit joke this arrogant idiot is! The laughing stock of the WORLD!
Sounds a lot like the Michael Jackson Sycophant Syndrome. I would be willing to wager that Obama's staff is terrified of him in some ways.
Is this serious? No speaking from the heart, only reading off the prompter. Our Prez is like a walking puppet.
I almost spit my water out when I read your comment. Too Funny!
Of course he needs it for children…Obumbler,
has it set up at the dinner table so he could
talk to Michelle and his kids…This guy can't
answer a question without it, all he does is
ooh, ahhh, huh, hum, duh!!!
