Geller says Obama wasn't "Uncontrived" or "Heartfelt" at Ft. Hood service because he used teleprompters

con·trived
ADJECTIVE:

Obviously planned or calculated; not spontaneous or natural; labored: a novel with a contrived ending.

So, which is it, genius? Some folks try so hard to use impressive language and only prove they haven't the intelligence required in order to be taken seriously. Yet another in a long list of conservative illiterates.

If you're bothered by the lack of verbal intelligence of this author, please, please, don't go to the link that MMFA provided to her site and read the comments about her posting. Talk about uninformed people with a lack of intelligence! These are people who are so biased against Obama that they can't even listen to him when he makes a very nice speech memorializing the slain at Fort Hood. It's sad that our nation is so contaminiated with voices like theirs.

Don't look for a rational explanation. The right wing is beyond dumb. It's embarrassing for adults to be so stupid...or just so damn mean they'll say anything.

When a speech is written on paper, the reader is looking down all the time. It's clear that the speech isn't off-the-cuff.

I think the issue is that those on the right think that some may be fooled into thinking that a speech on a teleprompter is memorized, or that there's no written text at all, and it's off-the-cuff since there isn't physical or visual evidence that the speaker is reading something.

And for people 'fooled' by the use of the teleprompter, that might make the user of the teleprompter, in this case, Obama, look like either a better memorizer OR like a person who has a great ability to make cogent and articulate off-the-cuff comments.

I think this is what it's about - that they want to make sure that everyone knows that he's not making unscripted comments, because if he were, he'd be even more impressive!

What person who often gives important speeches in which words are critical would NOT want to use a teleprompter? All Presidents use a teleprompter. This is so lame...

Hell, I say if she didn't use a quill pen, then she is a hypocrite. Six months ago called, they want their talking point back.

There are equal idiots on the left.

Name them.

but isn't that really what the morons are all about..? Obama makes a great.. moving.. relevant speech about a tragic moment in our lives..and they try to change the focus to the mechanics of giving the speech..

it's a simple plan of disrespect and a failed attempt at marginalizing the president..and should be called out for what it is..disgusting..un-patriotic..vitriol

add geller to the ever growing bonehead list..
