Obama gets ahead of the teleprompter.

The Teleprompter has fooled him again!

President Obamas speech at the National Academy of Sciences Monday morning hit a brief snag when Obama got ahead of his script.

Laying his plan for a Presidents Council of Advisors on Science and Technology, Obama began to name the members of PCAST listed in his prepared remarks before realizing hed already introduced them, earlier in his speech.

In addition to John sorry, the I just noticed I jumped the gun here, Obama said, pausing for several seconds as he looked at the prompter. Go ahead. Move it up. I had already introduced all you guys.

The audience, which gave the president a warm reception, responded with a quiet laugh.

@fishback8 Oh, c'mon! Of course he hasn't done a perfect job, but a stupid teleprompter messing him up, isn't grounds for saying he's stupid. At least he can pronounce "abu ghraib!" Hmmmmmm! Seems like our last president couldn't figure that one out!
