Did the president really become so TelePrompTer dependent that he accidentally thanked himself after a speech? No. Harnden has the pool report from Obama’s appearance with Irish Taioseach Brian Cowen.

Then it was Cowen’s turn, and he was in for a surprise. ‘We begin by welcoming today a strong friend of the United States,’ he said–then stopped in surprise as he realized he was reading President Obama’s speech off the teleprompter. ‘Why don’t these things work for me?’ he asked, as the crowd roared. ‘Thank you for having us. Who said these things were idiot-proof?’ Then he got his bearings and gave the same talk that he delivered in the East Room. When he ended, at 8:12, Obama stepped to the microphone and said, ‘First, I’d like to say thank you to President Obama…(much laughter). Happy Saint Patrick’s Day, everybody.’ Then we were escorted out.

It was a joke that bloggers mutated into a “gaffe.” IHatetheMedia.com even wrote a FOIA request asking the White House to “free the tape.” If it is “freed,” of course, it’ll reveal that the bloggers at IHatetheMedia don’t know how to read or do reporting.

My favorite part was when Republican18 and his cronies admitted their mistake.

Chorus of tweets greets Obama speech

Quote :
"There were online snickers, as he mispronounced hijab - the headscarf worn by Muslim women - as 'hajeeb'."

Wow, what a fool. I know you would never support a man capable of such outrageous verbal blunders.

If you leave out the economic policies you could even argue taht democrats waited till Bush's executive action blew up in his face or went awry to start bitching and moaning. Obama was not even 2 weeks into office and the GOP was spamming the headlines that xyz policy is ruining amerca, the terrorists are coming, obama wants your monies, blah blah blah...

Bush was on vacation until September 11th. Obama came out the gates trying to fuck up everything he could get his hands on.

I absolutely cannot understand how Republicans are jumping all over Obama/Biden gaffes when they just got done supporting a President who...Jesus, I don't even know what to say. There are actual books that you can buy in the store that are filled with his butchering of the language.

It doesn't even matter what you thought of the man or his leadership. Not all great leaders are great speakers.
