A HEAR-a-prompter is just the opposite of a "tell-a-prompter" - and is needed by those who are in leadership - or those elected to represent citizen's desires.
Q) How could the greatest orator of all times not explain what he means or convince his "followers" to agree with him?
A) Maybe it was his union screen-writer's fault, or maybe he needs a HEAR-a-prompter - so he can do what his constituents have been TELLing him to do... for a "CHANGE"...

the misplaced mental ascension to unbridled monarch status within the framework of three equal branches of government; the delusion that being elected to the key leadership role in a Republic also confers the unilateral power often assumed by the dictator of a failing democracy
Obamonarchy - placing un-vetted 'Czars' (that are later dismissed for having questionable backgrounds or for making questionable decisions) into positions of regulating issues and circumstances that are not granted to them by any law or other precedent (like salaries of private company executives)

If-Asked-Don't-Tell - is a policy position reserved for the formerely-unbiased press of suddenly being "blind-deaf-and dumb" about any recognition of wrongdoing, unethical behavior, or corruption by any noteworthy liberal.
It especially applies to any politician that was ideologically (or even financially) supported by that same news media "opinion machine" - and relates to the "separation of press and state".

Q - "Did you hear about the Democrat Congressman who..?"
A - "Shhhh - we have an If-Asked-Don't-Tell policy and I can't comment on that - and I have a deadline for a Palin expose'.."

Under-Time is the shortage of hours given to an employee to do the same scope of work but in less time.
In the down economy, hourly workers are "expected" to "work smarter" and do added work and still get their regular work done as if they were "professionals" who owe the employer more-than-hourly performance.
It is often associated with a new RUSH assignment - or managers who get a BONUS for reduced labor costs.

Q) Are you working overnight with us to re-arrange the cereal shelves and move old stock to the front..we're even getting Over-Time..?
A) No, I've been given Under-Time for hanging up all the new signs to promote the changed pricing..and wasn't even given enough hours to get the regular store signs installed..

Fast-n-furious is a dance move recognized when an individual suddenly skates away hastily - when they are questioned about some action that they took earlier - that in retrospect now appears to have been done too fast-n-furious...
He: Can you believe that the US DOJ approved that guns be provided to foreign drug gangs - that they then used to kill Mexicans and Americans...?
She: No, but I did notice how fast-n-furious the AG left the room when he was asked about it..!
He: Do you think justice will be done to those responsible?
She: Probably depends on how fast-n-furious the folks that run the paper shredders and hard-drive erasers can re-act...
