'I made Obama's BlackBerry'
New York (CNNMoney) - It was a rough day at the NSA in 2008 when President Obama asked for a smartphone.
"It just really bothered a lot of people - nobody wanted to put anything out there that wasn't completely secure," said retired NSA technical director Richard "Dickie" George in an interview with CNNMoney.

Yeah, so what. Did you also make his Teleprompter? Otherwise who showed him how to use it?
I bet he's more intelligent than you Gundy. Hick that thinks no other POTUS has used or will use a teleprompter.
-he is not only intelligent than Gundy the venom but also entire republican bums. Or else, national ACA Law would not have passed, nor Birth Certificate mouths shut up. True. USA needs presidents like him. God bless him!!!
UM, Whazzat?,
Whats-His-Name Intelligent? So why he need Teleprompter. Did George need Teleprompter? Did Abe need Teleprompter? Do you need Teleprompter? Do you still need your Nanny? Are you still in pajamas? OK, don't answer that.
No selfies, ahh, a multi million dollar phone, and no angry birds, oh boo!
I see you've mastered politics as well as you have the English language. Simple drivel from a simple mind.
The great and all knowing obama would say 'you didn't build that'
@ Wake Up
Hey. Just stopped by to say "hi". Have a great weekend ... I'm headed for fun in the sun. If you "see" DM4O, please give her my happy weekend wishes as well.
@Gunderson
UM, Whazzat?,
"Whats-His-Name Intelligent?"
Did you just ask if the president of the US is intelligent and not remember his name?
"Did George need Teleprompter? Did Abe need Teleprompter?"
You're absolutely right! G.Washington and A.Lincoln did not use teleprompters. Historians stand corrected.
"Do you need Teleprompter?"
I don't have angry talk show hosts taking every word I say out of context to accuse me of being the brother of Satan.
According to George, the president simply wanted a phone that enabled him to communicate with his advisers.

no doubt. before saying or doing anything, must check with the political commissars and pollsters. we know he sure isn't using it to talk to his cabinet members like sebelius and shinseki!
Gurgyl.....How my know what your last entry means to me?
Well Gunny, while you are discussing intellect, regale us again how you survived three (3) world wars, and two sheep shearings.
"Did George need Teleprompter? Did Abe need Teleprompter? "
They certainly used written aids for their speeches, Captain Babytalk. Reagan was a champion public speaker and was famous for his index cards. Grow the frig up.
what a nasty lot . All over a nice article about a phone.
