Namaste India! In all likelihood that will be silver-tongued Barack Obama's opening line when he addresses the Indian parliament next week. But to help him pronounce Hindi words correctly will be a teleprompter which the US president uses ever so often for his hypnotising speeches.

Indian politicians are known for making impromptu long speeches and perhaps that is why some parliament officials, who did not wish to be named, sounded rather surprised with the idea of a teleprompter for Obama.

 

"We thought Obama is a trained orator and skilled in the art of mass address with his continuous eye contact," an official, who did not wish to be identified because of security restrictions, said.

 

Obama is known to captivate audiences with his one-liners that sound like extempore and his deep gaze. But few in India know that the US president always carries the teleprompter with him wherever he speaks.

How disappointed they must be. Half the US voters thought he was going to deliver hope and change. The other half knew he was poison.

It seems as though there are some Indians who are disillusioned with our president -- that he actually isn't what he at first seemed to be.

 

Huh.

 

And all because of TOTUS. Well, TOTUS is one clue, anyway.

Gateway Pundit: Muslims in India Outraged Over Obama’s Security Dog Named “Khan”

Jim Hoft on Sunday, November 7, 2010

 

Rediff.com reported

 

Muslims in Mumbai are up in arms against a United States military sniffer dog allegedly with name tag of ‘Khan’ that has landed in the city as part of President Barack Obama security arrangements.

 

On Tuesday, the German Shepherd arrived in the Mumbai airport from a Hercules C130 transport plane. The German Shepherd allegedly had a tag around its neck which read ‘MWD Khan.’ MWD stands for Military Working Dog. Khan is alleged to be the name of the dog.

 

Angry Muslims in the city and the state are threatening to protest this ‘insult’ to the community.

He could have used the Totus to dance for him. Solid proof that he does not have that much Black in his blood-NO rythmn.
