I agree, the idea that President Obama "cannot put a sentence together without a telepromter" is hyperbole at its worst. Romney is a stiff, Obama is articulate.
Sure.
Lets do look at hyperboles at their worst....

commentary on SEVERELY:

Mitt Romney has a gift for words — self-destructive words. On Friday he did it again, telling the Conservative Political Action Conference that he was a “severely conservative governor.”
As Molly Ball of The Atlantic pointed out, Mr. Romney “described conservatism as if it were a disease.” Indeed. Mark Liberman, a linguistics professor at the University of Pennsylvania, provided a list of words that most commonly follow the adverb “severely”; the top five, in frequency of use, are disabled, depressed, ill, limited and injured.

Congrats, max, you've earned one of these.
I apologize for bringing up facts and interrupting your little Obama circle jerk.
The funny part is I really dont care for Romney, either, but unlike you, boys,
I am willing to acknowledge reality.....

You're the one who brought Obama into the mix.
