Who says Obama can't speak extemporaneously? Obama tried writing notes on his hand, but the ink didn't show.
OK. Now THAT'S funny. :rofl:

Whether it's one's hand, 3x5s, a binder, or a full-blown teleprompter, speakers have used notes for centuries. Some just memorize a few key points and speak extemporaneously. Looks like that's what she was doing. Just a few key notes and speak off the cuff.

People of both genders on boths sides of the aisle do this. Why is it such a big deal for Sarah?
From what I've heard of her speeches, it's a big deal that she can.

1. I've never posted at AGS.

2. I was actually defending a President I disagree with because he was the victim of an apparent racist remark.

Stay Classy, Robert Gibbs - what a freakin' child..... :ohno:

http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2010/02 ... jab-palin/

White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs took a swipe at Sarah Palin Tuesday, mimicking the former vice presidential candidate's decision to use her hand as a notepad at the National Tea Party Convention last week.

At the daily press briefing, Gibb showed his left hand with writing on it, which apparently was his grocery list to purchase ahead of the expected snowstorm.

Scrawled on his hand were :

-- Milk

-- Bread (crossed out)

-- Eggs

-- Hope

-- Change

She's just JOe Six Pack, writin on her hand, i'll bet her next speech is given in a barn with her wearing overalls and a JOhn Deere mesh hat with the Confedrate flag on it.

They're all children. Gibbs is a fokkin joke, just like McClellan... :evil:

Seriously though, how petty is this POS? Palin is out, running around, writing shit on her hands, and he--in his position as press secretary--feels the need to acknowledge her with a weak attempt at a "funny." He's the joke... :ohno:

Great concept, but Palin used a teleprompter at her Republican convention speech....& Obama didn't use one while extemporaneously handing the Republican congressmen their a$$ on a platter a week ago at their own breakfast meeting....this is such a non-issue, but the Republicans keep bringing it up....usually in speeches posted on a teleprompter by their own speechwriter... :coffee:
