UPDATE: He even needs training on how to use a teleprompter!
UPDATE: Even on holiday! Even at a speech to 6th graders!
I mean, seriously dude… You wanna debate McCain at your current level of independent thought?

Obama’s teleprompter hits the trail
(CNN) — It appears Barack Obama’s teleprompter is hitting the campaign trail.
The Democratic presidential nominee has never tried to hide the fact he delivers speeches off the device, though normally he doesn’t use one at standard campaign rallies and town hall events.
But the Illinois senator used a teleprompter at both his Colorado events Monday — making for a particularly peculiar scene in Pueblo, where the prompter was set up in the middle of what is normally a rodeo ring.
He also brought 12 teleprompters to his UK visit.
Well I suppose he really has to, in order to avoid such deer-in-headlights, stuttering moments as this:
And this:
And this:
See the size of this one:
And from Gateway Pundit, Obama once again has to rely on his teleprompter to comment on Biden’s debating!
And yet another video can be seen at Moonbattery.

And losing his place on the teleprompter while in France:
But hey, maybe you can adapt some of Karl Rove’s mind ray machines to transmit the hand-holding guidance of your multitudes of policy advisors directly into your brain for the pre-election debates.

Michelle Malkin has a Latin wording version.

Are you Serious?!….most presidents use them to make major speeches. Most presidents don’t use them EVERYTIME they are at the podium. PrezBo does. PrezBo can’t introduce a cabinet nominee without his prompter.

Whether PrezBo uses one or not, he never sound sincere or meaning what he says. And what he says are vague and predesigned for easy flip flopping afterwards – mostly so. As time goes go, this will become more and more self-evident to more people.
He’s not even coherent and deliberately so.
