We can add another clown to the mix- Ed Morrisey:

Obviously, most Hot Air readers disagree with my assessment (and Allahpundit’s) of Barack Obama’s speech last Wednesday evening at the University of Arizona. They also blame Obama more for the odd tone of the event, with its whooping and whistling and t-shirts, than the university that organized it. Fair enough. But one thing on which we can all agree is that that the White House wrote the speech, and apparently added “applause” indicators into Obama’s speech that the university put on the Jumbotron in their captioning for the audience.

he then updates to state they “may not have been responsible for the applause indicators.”

IT WAS CLOSED CAPTIONING, YOU CLOWN. Watch your own damned video- do you think Obama broke space and time to have the crowd applaud BEFORE the [applause] appeared on the Jumbotron?

How do these people make it through the day without stabbing themselves in the eye with a spoon when they eat?

Little Green Footballs – Wingnut Blogger Jim ‘Dim’ Hoft’s Latest: Hair-Gate

We already knew that with this administration everything is staged…
…But, someone please tell me the Obama regime is not this manipulative:

Barack Obama’s mood hair in pictures.

Ann Althouse noticed Obama’s mood hair on Saturday:

And what’s the first thing you notice — the difference between today and the speech he gave at the memorial? Right. Different color hair. Gray for the memorial, signifying the wise elder, the father figure. Back to dark hair to signify the vigorous young man, ready to forge ahead, solving problems, and restoring his party’s electoral fortunes.

Reader Dennis O. noticed that Obama was obviously more youthful looking in his Saturday Weekly Address before the Tucson pep rally.

Surely there’s a reasonable explanation for all of this?… Surely there is.

There is no facepalm mighty enough. And this one is even too boneheaded for some of Hoft’s commenters:

“Yes, there is a reasonable explanation. It’s called “Different Cameras, Different Lighting.”

You beat me too it. Lighting makes a big difference with gray hair. Especially if you have dark hair. The same thing happens to me.

This is a non story.
