The Great Communicator


It has become clear that Obama has considerable difficulty expressing himself when his words haven't been prepackaged by his handlers. Obama has an unprecedented dependence on his teleprompter. You don't have to be a conservative to recognize the problem. 

We need a President who can form a coherent thought in real time when confronted with an unexpected and challenging question; a Chief Executive who can give more than an arrogant, perfunctory response to his political opponents at home; a President who can communicate assertively with our adversaries abroad.

More important than Obama's communication skills, or lack thereof, is his stupid and dangerous message. I could forgive BO for his inability to communicate effectively if his goals and objectives weren't so reckless.
