WASHINGTON – The White House says President Barack Obama will appear this week on Jay Leno's talk show, perhaps adding a lighter touch to his bid to resuscitate the moribund economy. Obama will visit "The Tonight Show With Jay Leno" during his trip to Los Angeles on Thursday. NBC will tape the program and air it that night, after the president has returned to Washington.

Ha! No. Too cute to be Hillary.

[all the best]

Actually Americans have come to hold government and politicians in way too much awe. If only someone would demean those who hold power over us. Government is not God and neither are politicians. Demean and de-power away.

“Well, that’s the proper venue — he’s a joke.”

Do you think he will do a bit with Nostradumbass?

He needs no further help from anyone — just stand him up, wind him up and let him go.

This is the only venue on which the majority of his constituency will see him. God knows they have absolutely no idea what he and his com-padres in the Congress have done, or he'd be looking at peasants with pitch forks. The guy has flip-flopped on every single position he took except abortion (which most who voted for him didn't realize he'd be the biggest support of).

Believe me, his constituency is up late to watch it while the rest of us rummies have to hit the sack to get up and hit the line again the next day. Don't even get me started. I could roll for at least a year.

Name the last SITTING President that went on a fluff entertainment show? <> Yes .. the messiah WILL go on a fluff-entertainment programs where they will no doubt welcome him with their Arsenio Hall-type "whoop whoop" celebrations, some of the women in the audience will swoon and faint at the prospect of breathing the same air as "the chosen one," and he will hammered with such probing policy questions that as: "boxers or briefs?" or my favorite: "is it true that you and Brad Pitt are related?" No .. he can't debate Rush Limbaugh, or even go onto news programs and talk about his platform since they can't update his teleprompter that fast! And besides, when was the last time we had a President that couldn't be trusted without his crutch, the teleprompter? And yet, "Bush" was the big dummy! (right ..)

One of my favorite clips of Nixon:

yes, I know he was a former VP at the time, not the P.

Obama is excited to visit Hollywood - home of the TelePromptr!

And don't forget that's where they have those wacky styrofoam Greek columns! Maybe he's going to fetch them so he can create a Mount Obamus and smite us from it!

Now THAT is funny.
