Really???

One of the lead stories on Yahoo! is about how Obama uses the teleprompter too much lately.

Are you kidding me? Do you think he might have some other things on his mind other than learning every word of every speech verbatim.

I had friends that use to say Bush had a lot to deal with and we should cut him some slack. Where did that mentality go? Either cut Obama some slack or jump on Bush for not using the teleprompters when he did that whole "There's a saying in Texas, Shame on you....ah ah and you can't get fooled again." With or without teleprompters, there will not be enough material to fill an entire book of Obamaisms.

Obama is giving his full attention to the bigger picture. You know what Bush did when things got hard -- he took a vacation to the ranch. He was on vacation 1 year out of 8 -- ONE FULL YEAR. I fear for Obama's life if he is ever caught on a golf course or sitting down for a while when we are under attack. But I digress.

Getting back to the bigger picture, the country is in the flusher. I get it. But does that mean we have to ignore what is going on and divert our attention to wasting time? News programs spend time on user comments via Facebook and the #1 story on Countdown with Keith Olberman dealt with the fact that Obama's hair has started showing some gray. The #1 story.

Are you kidding me??? Can we get some f------ news around here???
