DOES PRESIDENT OBAMA even read what is put in the teleprompter before he delivers it?

On Monday night, Obama claimed that "because neither party is blameless for the decisions that led to this problem, both parties have a responsibility to solve it." But just three paragraphs earlier, Obama put the blame for our $14.3 trillion debt squarely on President George W. Bush, claiming that "trillions of dollars in new tax cuts," "two wars" and "an expensive prescription drug program" caused government surpluses to turn into annual deficits. This despite the fact that in only three years Obama's spending has added $3.7 trillion to the national debt.

Almost certainly not; talking points need not be consistent.
