Go to Whitehouse.gov. Quite a photo essay.

What's all of this nonsense about President Obama using a teleprompter??? Who gives a flip? Bush couldn't/w­ouldn't/di­dn't seem to have the ability to walk and chew gum at the same time. He couldn't read or speak without embarrassing himself! More than 60% of Americans are grateful that we have an intelligent man in the White House....and I'm one of them.

[Texas4Obama]

Me too.

God Bless America and God Bless the Obama Family.

Perfect way to end the day on the computer, nice to see our POTUS from the angle of his photographer; nice job. These pictures tell a story, a kind hopeful story.

wow nobody like republicans these days. maybe because they ruined the world. buhbye

[baddadd49]

Bottom line if anything happens to obama we wont miss him as anybody can read off the telepromter.

[sandpiper1]

I love the pic of Bo entering the Oval Office. I bet he's the only one who has unlimited access to O.

[LemonMeringue]

Bush couldn't do it.

[IndyReader]

I doubt that extents to you.

[babyboomerorig]

My theory on this is that he gives so many speeches which are never the same and has so much on his mind, that having the teleprompter available keeps him from losing track.

We all know what we went through with GWB looking down at his speech instead of eyeing his audience. We don't miss that, do we?

[tel8034]

Not only GWB was looking down at his speech in order to avoid eye contact (LIARS have a hard time looking anyone in the eye), but he couldn't even pronounce the words, neither was he familiar with punctuatio­n.........­..... He always paused long before he came to a comma, and completely ignored the periods as he always ran one sentence into another.

What's this fixation with repubs and a teleprompter? ............... It's not as if those at FAUX NOISE don't use one, or as if it's some new technology that is unfamiliar?

If this is all the repubs have to criticize President Obama about then despite the fake outrage, and the moronic statements, it's obvious that the repubs agree and approve of what President Obama is doing, but are too ashamed to admit it after what they did and said during the campaign.

[Crissy Patters]

The man is loved in the US and around the world, he's what America needs during this horrific days. How could you even type if anything happens to him he won't be missed? I can understand not liking someone, not agreeing with their policies but to ignore the obvious is truly sad. This is so republicanism which is why they're spiraling out of control as a party. Did you read, the backlash the WH received from the public because they didn't initially inform the public that POTUS was fine, although he had been in Mexico recently?

[baddadd49]

obama was golfing when this hit and didnt come back to deal with it he just kept right on golfing,if that would have been Bush you libs would have been livid, but hey its bama so he gets a pass typical.

[Crissy Patters]

I'm going to assume that you haven't kept up with what has transpired concerning the SF. Look at the clip above and read the article in WP and TImes on the net. President Obama, had a meeting with his team on Friday to discuss the SF and to make sure all parties involved in handling this situation were in place. He and his team met again on Saturday, they had review on Sunday and the WH had a press conference with the key players speaking to the public to let us know everything that can be done was being done.

There was absolutely nothing else POTUS could do about the situation, also he had and made sure his people were in regular contact with the Canadian and Mexican authorities dealing with this situation;

If Bush had done the same, he would not have been bashed. Bush was bashed consistenly because he didn't care and showed that by ignoring or being clueless about the crisis going on in the lives of American citizens.

[shamroc02]

Get over it you sore loser. All you're doing is typing a bunch of nonsense now.

[Texas4Obama]

baddadd49,
The flu story hit many days ago.
Obama spent 5 hours golfing in Washington D.C. on Sunday (three days ago).
I am sorry to say this but you do not know what you are talking about.
He dealt with this issue before he played 'one game of golf' and also after the game was finished.

[OrbitOfOurOwn]

OMG! He is not wearing a jacket! He is NOT WEARING A JACKET! Call Ru sh! Call the GOP!

Oh, the lack of respect for the office!

[Dunderslapoldmen]

Reuters....Swine flu out-break started on Obama watch..

[KATANGA]

And on his watch, people like you still live.... :-)

[ToniaB]

I was thinking the same thing!

[LemonMeringue]

Swine flu has been around a lot longer than Obama's administration.

Hogwash, no pun intended.

It is also usually not serious, although any flu can kill a week or immune-compromised person.

[Texas4Obama]

Swine flu also broke out in 1976 when REPUBLICAN Gerald Ford was president.
So your point is ?

[Dunderslapoldmen]

One of the ways to not get sw-ine flu is to keep your hands away from your face and mouth...Has anyone told Obama and cre-w?

[shamroc02]

One of the ways for America to continue to move forward is making sure the Repubs stay out of power for an entire generation by completely dismanteling them to irrelevence...has anyone told you that? Oh yeah, Spector just did :)

[rain33]

photos were sooo cool to look at! thats very cool of obamas and his administration!

[Kiabell04]

I am so proud to call him POTUS! And now ReTHUGlicans...you can see what it means to have a REAL President who actually works. He's not sitting around with a diabolical, sinister VP cooking up scams.

[Nonpartay]

True, or going on his endless vacations. But did you notice how he stopped going to that Crawford ranch as soon as he left office? I guess that ranch thing gave him great photo ops but his interest in it was just for show. Now he's living in a gated community in Dallas. Of course, considering what he did while in the White House, perhaps it was just as well he spent so much time on vacation...

[tel8034]

A gated community with racial restrictive covenants ................ ONLY WHITES ALLOWED.

Obviously Bush was NOT the POTUS, but the President of ONLY the WEALTHY WHITES.

[Budokan]

Pay attention GOOPers...this is how a real president does thing. As opposed to your jibbering commandant who ran this country into the ground in eight years.

Eat it, Republikans. Eat it hard.
