Don't count on there not being a teleprompter there. How many subjects are there that they can ask questions about? Let's just take a few: Health care, missiles, race, Acorn. Those seem to be at the fore front right now. What politician ever answers the question they're asked? When a question is asked, they go right to their talking points. Any good teleprompter operator can put up any answer very quickly - they just need a few seconds to que the answer. Obama has his little set phrases: Let me be clear about this...; This is just another attempt by those who have an agenda to block any type of legislation; As I've said before, and I'll remind you again. Any one of those phrases will give him time to get a properly worded answer up there. Just watch how articulate he is. And all those programs will go along with it - it's why he's not going on FOX - they probably wouldn't allow the prompter.

Obama did lie...Listen to his words: April 5, 2009 "So let me be clear: Iran's nuclear and ballistic missile activity poses a real threat, not just to the United States, but to Iran's neighbors and our allies. The Czech Republic and Poland have been courageous in agreeing to host a defense against these missiles. As long as the threat from Iran persists, we will go forward with a missile defense system that is cost-effective and proven. If the Iranian threat is eliminated, we will have a stronger basis for security, and the driving force for missile defense construction in Europe will be removed." Obama, 4-5-09 (Printed from Politico comment) And then again, here's what Obama said: youtube.com Obama in Prague talking about disarmament
