Funny!
The Prez handled what could've been an awkward moment with this usual aplomb and good humor.

Makes you wonder if he had any idea what he was going to say.

In that it informs us of the pettiness and stupidity of his detractors who think he should memorize all of his prepared remarks or that doing so would be a good use of his time.

I thought it was extremely awkward looking. As if he had no clue what he was supposed to say. The "PEOPLE" "PEOPLE" thing didn't help him. Just made him look weak.
Funny how the same video can bring about difference reactions.

No, no...I don't expect him to memorize everything. The man has a busy schedule, lots of speeches to make. But Sal, he was not good at making small talk or anything. He was pretty horrible, actually.

Nonsense.
Barry O'Bamzalot does not do awkward.
He was as smooth as he always is.
You people are just consumed with Obama hate.

Yep, that's it. He can't think on his feet, so I hate him.

Surprise, surprise, professional speakers do not memorize anything. President Barack Hussein Obama is only good at reading, he is a lousy public speaker. The foolish Progressives rolled in the aisle when Sarah Palin had a few notes from which to speak that she had written on her hand moments before speaking. President Obama couldn't do anything but STAMMER until someone handed him his script.

My, you do have selective memory.
Is that characteristic of all Progressives?

I thought it was funny and he handled it well. It's truly sad when you hate someone you can't objectively view anything. This is the first time I've ever heard anyone say he is a lousy public speaker. That's just off the charts.

That's absurd. He was funny and cool.

I gave you that he is a great...reader. You get your "news" from your Progressive sources and turn your nose up at real news. I'm not surprised you haven't heard.
The general Media, as you know, is and has been since they first saw him an extension of his campaign office and press office. Even you cannot deny that simple fact.
The Press would highlight and run above the fold on page one of every newspaper whenever President George Walker Bush made an error speaking. Much of the time he was speaking without notes or a teleprompter. Would you not agree?
President Obama can lose his chain of thought and have to ask his audience what he his talking about or he starts reading someone else's speech wrongly, put into the teleprompter, and he thanks himself. The list goes on. Compared with President Ronald Reagan or Bill Clinton, President Obama has not passed his first speech at Toastmasters.

He is good at what he does. He is smart enough and has the discipline not to make mistakes. Lincoln and Douglas would ramble on for hours before 10k people in the public square and not have any sound enhancement......oratory is often a lost art, but you would be underestimating the President if you think he is not gifted in his speaking ability.....now to evenly piss everybody off....President Bush did a pretty good job to.....but like a SNL skit we hear his mistakes over and over again....when most of the time he did a great job.......unless you have done it.....I would not throw stones.....I have done it, and it is a whole lot of fun, but when you get to the level of Presidents.....mistakes are not allowed.......so notes, teleprompters, and more are often prudent.

I grew very irritated with him by 2003... he was either an interventionalist all along... or not smart enough to know better.

Yes, Bush was funny. Some of his garbled statements were really funny.
But you know what...if that had been Bill Clinton today, no one would have even known that he had no speech. I'm not a Clinton fan, but he was much better in this kind of situation than Obama is.
