"The American Spectator notes that for many events: '... down to many of the questions and the answers to those questions. ... [t]eleprompter screens at the events scrolled not only his opening remarks, but also statistics and information he could use to answer questions.' It quoted one Obama advisor as saying that Mr. Obama is looking at installing a computer screen in White House podiums so 'it would make it easier for the comms (communications) guys to pass along information without being obvious about it.'"
Can you believe this? It's also used as an electronic cheat sheet, to create the illusion that the President has command over a lot more facts and figures than he really does. As the Washington Times noted, the press and the comedians would have had a field day if Bush had done this.
