Obama's speech seemed pretty good to me. There were references to science

It's refreshing to have someone in the WH who can actually articulate.

I believe BO gave his speech without teleprompters.


You can clearly see the teleprompting reflective glass screens in some of the broadcasts. There is one to the right and one to the left. The text alternates between the screens so the speakers head moves from side to side.

I think the fact he wrote the speech himself is much more important and impressive. It was a speech that defined the tone for this administration. I think it will have increasing historical significance and meaning as events unfold.
