Inventor of the Teleprompter dies--Obama Left Speechless!

The inventor of the TelePrompTer Hubert J. Schlafly Jr., died on April 20th in Connecticut. We attribute this man’s invention as the savior for President Obama who cannot talk without the use of this device. In fact, anytime Obama speaks without a TeleprompTer he struggles for the right word or phrase to use. Most of his words are divided by a slew of “uhhhh’s” and his famous statement; “Let me be clear.” So far just two years into his Presidency Obama has used the let me be clear comment more than a Windex salesman at a dirty glass convention!

There is no comment from the White House yet but there are great expectations that President Obama will attend a memorial for Mr. Schlafly later this week. His aides say that the President’s staff is frantically making arrangements to get power to the location of the memorial which will be held about five miles from the nearest town and on the shore of Mr. Schlafly’s favorite fishing hole. The problem is that President Obama will only speak at the service if he can find an electrical plug for his teleprompter.


Now, let me be clear on this; yes Mr. Schlafly the inventor of the teleprompter did pass away on April 20th and yes President Obama can only give a coherent speech with the use of a teleprompter but everything else in this post is tongue in cheek and I wrote it without the aid of anything but a keyboard. No teleprompters were used or sacrificed to create this post!
