Oh, the Places You'll Go

I don't watch too much television, let alone The View.

So, how does the ever-busy President of the United States have time to make his way onto this "fluffy daytime TV show" as Rosie O'Donnell, herself, calls it. It's not a news channel. It's obvious that the show targets mainly a female audience. They talk about the latest celebrity news and other media-related things, I suppose.

But, just as our favorite Sarah Palin says, "President w/no time to visit porous US/Mexican border to offer help to those risking life to secure us,but lotso' time to chat on The View?" This comment was posted on her Twitter. I know that if President Bush had gone to an interview on such a show, he'd be under massive fire by all kinds of media outlets for wasting time. President Obama seems to be really good at wasting time, don't you think? From golfing, to randomly traveling to Manhattan for romantic excursions - paid for by yours truly -, he must have some sort of checklist where he has certain things he wants to do while he's president.


Is this some type of event to reach out to the people? Or is it to win back popular support? Because I don't think either of those things worked. Great, instead of working on the problems of the country, he's telling worldwide viewers of The View that he doesn't know who Snooky is. To be honest, I don't really know who that is either, save for the fact that she's on a reality show called Jersey Shore, but I don't think the country needed to know that.


On top of that, when asked about being invited to Chelsea Clinton's multi-million dollar wedding, he simply said that he wasn't invited because it was a private event between Chelsea and her beau. Aw. How sweet. Oh, but then he ruins the moment saying it's already difficult with one president present at the wedding - it'd be too complicated with two. You know you're just disappointed that they didn't invite you to their shindig, Mr. President. It's okay! You'll probably just hold a huge party yourself with your wife. Why? Because you can. With the taxpayers' money.

Let's all go back to doing our jobs now, shall we?
