Romney Refers to Trees as "Just the Right Height"

Being all talk and no action doesn't make you a great orator.

If he is so good, why doesn't he speak before Congress and get his agenda passed.

Instead he wanders around America, hat in hand, cozying up to the 1%'rs.

Oh, you mean like Gov. Etch-a-Sketch?

But Romney doesn't have a job right now. President Obama has a huge job in his lap right now, millions unemployed, a stagnant economy, and he is on the rubber chicken circuit MC'ing pep rallies.

Really Fred?

What sitting 1rst term president hasn't campaigned for reelection?

It's an absurd argument

A number of Presidents have chosen to use Rose Garden campaigns. Acting as President as the best defense against a challenger. Of course the last guy to do it, Jimmy Carter, it didn't work out so well.

Got to admit BO can read a joke better than Mitt can tell one.

Have to agree, Barack Hussein Obama is a better entertainer than Mitt Romney, but is that improtant?

Hate for "Idiocracy" to be the future of the US, will WWE wrestlers start running for Chief Executive?

Ah but we could have much more fun watching the debates, and the Smack Down. :woo hoo:

Still trying to regurgitate the "teleprompter" silliness? I love it...

Blowback in the GOP war on teleprompters

And speaking of a failure to communicate, the Republican war on TelePrompTers has poetically backfired. It began as a quasi-racist meme among the fever swamps of the right, a way for right-wingers to express their belief that Obama is a brainless talking doll. By catering to it, Republicans backed themselves into a position where they can’t use TelePrompTers at all. The result is a series of rambling election night speeches that manage to be at once frightening and dull. The speeches, like the race, just go on and on and on.

While I agree with Kevin Drum's response that the Republican candidate's speeches suck because the candidates themselves are sucky, Chait is also right that the candidates are worse than they need to be.

As John showed in his earlier post, with pictures, every modern US President has used a teleprompter for speeches. When the words used by the President can mean the difference between war and peace, the idea of a President giving extemporaneous remarks makes them nervous as heck.

Ooopsie ... Hoisted on their own petards? rofllol How's that teleprompter thing workin' out for ya? I guess when a moron like Romney doesn't use one, you get lines like: "The trees are the right height. The grass is the right color of green..." and "I like to fire people."


...and WITH it, you get lines like: "I'm Sean Hannity" rofllol
