    Okay, so you found video of him using a teleprompter at the Republican caucus? No? I thought it was pretty clear I was talking about the Republican caucus, which you still have appeared to not recognize as missing a teleprompter and admitting Obama did quite well.

    If you can't disprove A, I guess you'll just show B instead. That's fine, it's a common defense tactic.

    Perhaps because even though Obama got the better of them, they still think it's a great idea and they got some value out of it anyway? Maybe there are politicians that think there are good ideas out there that might not benefit just them? Or is that too hopeful for the GOP?

    Sarah Palin, realizing that left wing kooks are following her around, trying to get a peak at anything she may have written on her hand, has a message she wishes to have passed on:

    And this is the right reaction. Tweak the libs, and have a good laugh. Very well done.

    Is it okay when Rush Limbaugh says "r****d?" Palin says yes. What do you say?

    So the official response to this from the pro-Palin crowd is either:

    Stop hatin' on Sara, haters
    or
    I photoshopped some writing on Obama's hand

    Awesome.

    You do understand that there is a big difference between a photoshopped image and it really happening, right?

    The Obama-uses-a-teleprompter argument is pretty good. The comparison of an hour-long speech to the entire country versus the question "what's wrong with America" in some random not-so-televised interview is a valid one.

    you do understand you look like a douche when you frame your question thusly, right?

    who is making that comparison? Obama used a teleprompter to address a class of 6th graders. how is writing a couple of key points on your hand any different than speaking from a deck of index cards?

    The wingtards out in the tubes don't know when to stop. Now they're claiming Palin wrote the notes on her hand for the teabagger convention speech. Like she gave that speech based on hand notes, not her prepared remarks sitting on the lectern in front of her, that she is clearly reading from.

    I would respond to you if I expected a legitimate response back, perhaps for some discussion back-and-forth, but it's become glaringly obvious you have no desire for any sort of debate and discussion due to your complete lack of response to my response to you earlier: http://bbs.clutchfans.net/showpost.php?p=5086467&postcount=101

    If you want to debate, I'll continue and response to what's quoted above, but I'm not just going to talk to a wall. Thanks in advance for your response!

    was Obama giving a prepared speech when he addressed the 6th graders?

    Because one makes you look like an idiot, and one makes you look like a grown-up...which one do you think is which?

    What do you think of the fact that Palin has one standard for Rahm and another for Rush? Kind of makes her complaint ring hollow, wouldn't you say?

    For years I've wondered whether basso is just pretending to be really dumb, or is he actually as cognitively challenged as he appears to be.

    I finally figured it out. The answer is- All of the above.

    Palmgate is the perfect example of this.

    basso pretends to be dumb when he acts like he doesn't understand the difference between referring to written materials when presenting extended remarks, otherwise known as a speech, and writing notes on your hand (or anywhere else) to try and keep three basic points straight when answering questions in an interview format.

    basso is actually dumb when he doesn't realize that repeatedly pretending to be dumb is counterproductive in promoting whatever wingnut idea he's currently obsessing over.
