During a speech Monday, Barack Obama's teleprompter mysteriously came crashing down. After a brief pause to acknowledge the fallen machine, the president -- who has been accused by his rivals of being overly dependent on the reading device -- was able to gamely finish his remarks using only his notes and the remaining teleprompters.

Charles Barkley may be an entertaining off-the-cuff speaker, but he suffers from a severe case of Burgundy-itis once the teleprompter roles.
