Gingrich, back in November:
After challenging the President to a series of live debates, GOP frontrunner Newt Gingrich has said that President Obama can use a teleprompter if he wants to.
The Republican hopeful made the gibe at a speech in Naples, Florida. He said: 'If he wants to use a teleprompter, then it would be fine with me.'
Following cheers and laughter, he added: 'It has to be fair. If you [were] to defend ObamaCare, wouldn't you want a teleprompter?'
Ha ha ha ha! Oh yes, only politicians who aren't sure of their convictions need teleprompters!

How about wingnuts speaking at CPAC? Surely, THEY wouldn't have teleprompters at their premier gathering, would they?

So what is the wingnut response to this hypocrisy? Well, I trolled conservatives on Twitter and Free Republic to get a response, and here it is in a nutshell: It's not the teleprompter that's bad, but that Obama can't function without it and needs it all the time!
You see, it's all about the degree that Obama uses it. Who said conservatives weren't nuanced?
Of course, Obama din't need a teleprompter for this, did he?
