Oh stewardess, I speak jive. |
Everything. It's indicative of a lack of preparation, and a lack of conviction. If you can't stand up and talk for a few minutes about something that's important to you, in a cogent and organized manner, without a teleprompter or notes, you've little business getting up to speak at all, or have at least failed to adequately prepare for the event. No one wants to see someone read a press release, or prepared comments, or anything else. We can read for ourselves just fine, thanks. One who reads aloud != a speaker. | |||

The Unknown Stuntman |
If you read the newsfeed to my phone or my work computer, you'd swear that our president is just a few heartbeats away from being perp-walked out of the WH in stripes and cuffs. And then you read real news, and . . . nothing! I'm to the point it's just funny. All this 'conspiracy' 'collusion' shit is just the leftists wet dreams written as 'news'. Dream on, hookers, dream the fuck on. Meanwhile, my president is busy kicking ISIS in the ass, keeping campaign promises (Israel), trying to lower taxes, boosting the shit out of the markets, and flooding court seats with conservative justices. But keep on whining libs, we'll just be over here, winning quietly to ourselves. | |||

Trump uses a teleprompter just as much as the rest of them. Hell, even the Medal of Honor ceremonies were read off of a teleprompter (a camera in the corner of the room caught it clearly). I don't hold it against him, mind you, but it would certainly be more genuine if he (or any of them) would do these speeches without one. ________________________________________________________ "Great danger lies in the notion that we can reason with evil."

Check out the Czechs. They are supportive of Trump's Jerusalem decision. http://www.breitbart.com/londo...er-israel-jerusalem/

One of the young professors in my day had an unsurpassed ability to answer any question in an organized, logical way, without pauses, stammering, uh’ing etc. It was so remarkable we asked him about it. He was a banker, had been in the management training program at Irving Trust. He said you had to be able to do that, in making presentations to senior management, big shot customers. If you could not, you were not going to prosper. Rex Tillerson showed himself to be one of the smoother speakers. It may be that in more formal settings, the exact wording and demeanor of the President are critical so you want to get the wording just right. It astonishes me that those with knowledge of so much classified information can speak extemporaneously in public without getting crossed up. Luckily, I have enough willpower to control the driving ambition that rages within me. When you had the votes, we did things your way. Now, we have the votes and you will be doing things our way. This lesson in political reality from Lyndon B. Johnson "Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible." - Justice Janice Rogers Brown | |||

You really need Vu-Graphs or something to register so you do not miss anything and also to have a logical order. The military is known to give presentations using Vu-Graphs and once you have confidence in the subject matter, you automatic fill in the blanks instead of having it all written out. It is always good to have some backup Vu-Graphs if some General decides to shoot holes in you work. 41 | |||

I mean honestly, it's not as if the President has all day to stand around in the Oval Office and just practice giving speeches. If he did, I'm sure he could forego the teleprompter most times, but we know that's not the case. ~Alan Acta Non Verba NRA Life Member (Patron) God, Family, Guns, Country Men will fight and die to protect women... because women protect everything else. ~Andrew Klavan | |||

Teleprompters only replaced written notes. Written notes/speeches have been used by every single President throughout history. | |||

A little history of Jews in Czech history: "Before World War II, there were 325,000 Jews in what was then Czechoslovakia. 270,000 of them perished in the Holocaust. Many of the Holocaust survivors left the country during and after the war. Many of those who remained departed in 1968. The number of Jews living today in the Czech Republic is estimated at no more than a few thousand." http://www.conbiz.eu/informati...ty-in-czech-republic | |||

Germany doesn’t have the best history when it comes to Jews. This is hardly a surprising move by that stupid as fuck country. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The price of liberty and even of common humanity is eternal vigilance | |||

Did anyone else get exposed to 60 minutes last night? I was getting assaulted by that broadcast while I helped do some flooring at my MILs... That delusional, lying sack of shit Jerry Brown actually thinks he is the be-all end-all on economics, and Kali is the proof! Don't look at the stock market, it's all ME and my bullshit policies and anti-Trump crusade. Good grief!! I gotta be more vigilant about avoiding that shit... What a joke, "the paris accord would have kept KAli from burning, WAHHHHH!" Must not throw up.... | |||
