Santorum: "It should be illegal gor candidates to read a Teleprompter." I'm with Rick!

[trof]

From GD:
"In Rick Santorum’s perspective, no presidential candidate should ever be allowed to use a teleprompter on the campaign trail.

The former Pennsylvania senator expressed his unorthodox view in his latest attack of the speech reading device Sunday afternoon, according to CNN. While campaigning at a restaurant in Gulfport, Mississippi, Santorum questioned the authenticity of any candidate using a teleprompter."

Does anyone realize how many cue card holders have been put out of work by Teleprompters?
Families plunged into poverty?
And just HOW MUCH has this cost American taxpayers for food stamps, Medicaid, unemployment payouts?
And what has the toll been in broken homes and homeless families?

Cue card holder used to be a respected career.
Live television performers couldn't survive without them.
And then along comes the Teleprompter.
Damn.

You GO, Rick!
