Obama to go on Leno's show (Narcissist in Chief)
politico ^ | 10/20/2011 | p

President Obama will appear on “The Tonight Show with Jay Leno” next Tuesday, according to Dan Pfeiffer.

The White House communications director tweeted the news a little after 8 a.m. on Thursday.

This isn’t the president’s first time sharing the stage with Leno, who was the host of last year’s White House Correspondents’ Dinner.

There were no details of Obama’s appearance next week on the website of “The Tonight Show” as of Thursday morning.

I guess since the NBA is on strike, Barry will just have to watch himself on TV. An Ego like Barry's needs to be fed constantly.

I wonder if Leno will get a new pair of kneepads or will he use his old ones?

I wonder how he would have done on What’s My Line?

This all seems bizarre, totally unpresidential, undignified, ego-driven and a little ridiculous. To older generations.

My theory is that this is a calculated attempt to take advantage of a new media culture that has already changed and use it to change the political culture It’s an appeal to a younger, different demographic, an attempt to get those untapped millions who did not vote in high percentages to vote in high percentages like the seniors always have.

If we just ridicule and put down what these guys are doing, instead of trying to understand it, we will not be able to combat it. At the end, the Leno-Letterman-Colbert voter’s vote counts the same as the Rush-Hannity-Levin voter’s vote.

The Leno Letterman Colbert Stewart voters are an apathetic bunch. The Rush/Levin voters are motivated to vote.

Leno doesn’t give a crap who’s in the guest chair as long as they push up his ratings for that night. His head is in his car collection.

Yes, next to Bret Somers and just below Charles Nelson Reilly.

If a guy who looked like Gene Rayburn could actually land a job on network television, there's hope for all of us.

Absolutely disgraceful. You'd think the holder of the highest elective office in the land would have better things to do with his time. This guy is a walking case study of multiple psychoses. It is astounding how much he craves adoration and adulation. That he has to go on a late-night talk/comedy show to get it is amazingly pathetic.

Leno had Herman Cain on his show so I wonder if Herman Cain’s name will come up when he is interviewing Obammy....

It would be great if he did and Obammy called Cain a derogatory name, it would show how scared the libs are of Cain.

What have previous presidents done all day during their time in office? Excluding Clinton, who was bored to death, others seemed to find things to do around the White House.

Suppose he’ll get the Bachmann experience? You know, where you ask one set of questions an rehearsal and another totally different, embarrassing set on the taped show.

Your second statement is true. Your first statement, I know is not.
