Obama's news conference

I probably won't take much time to discuss the content of President Obama's primetime news conference tonight, but after only a few minutes of watching his opening segment, I couldn't help but post my initial thoughts. Particularly that I hate how he is so obviously reading from a teleprompter. One of Obama's strong-points is his ability to give inspiring speeches. Watching him read from a screen in front of him while not looking very animated, is making this address less exciting than I was expecting it to be.
