So, Barack Obama is an arugula-nibbling, fist-bumping, liberal elitist, eh? Then how come he’s chosen Jay Leno’s sofa, not David Letterman’s, as the venue for Read the full post.

Is it really that hard for people to get over politics and just say if they liked him on Leno or if they didn’t? Yeah we get it some people really like him as our leader and some people really do not like him as our leader. No offense, but do you really think that Entertainment Weekly is the political forum for this type of debate?
Obama should definitely have chosen Letterman. Dave is way funnier. As for people complaining that he should be running the country and not attending talk shows — do you really think that an hour away from the office is really going to change or improve the sinkhole situation that America has gotten itself into? Personally I think he’s just the type of President we need!
I thought Obama on Leno was thoughtful and humorous, but i agree that him on letterman would be hilarious
It would be hilarity if he was on Jimmy Kimmel, although it would NEVER happen..as soon as Guillermo opened his mouth hed be rite bac on air force one
I thought the prez was a terrific guest on Leno. He was fun and funny and did a lot to boost MY morale! And, I now understand the whole AIG mess a LOT better…
Oh come on, trent. Lighten up. My mother, partner and a dear friend are all disabled. I’ve worked with disabled people all my life. I’m VERY sensitive about name-calling and cruel jokes at others’ expense, but that was funny because Obama was putting the joke on himself. Besides, it’s turned out to be a good teaching moment and brought the subject back in the spotlight, which the Special Olympics people are now enjoying the benefits from.
I normally do not watch Leno, but decided to watch Obama. It sucked. Leno as far as I am concerned is bad. Letterman is a much better host then Leno will ever be. I will never watch him again.
David Letterman is NOT FUNNY. AT ALL. His to 10 lists wouldn’t even make a 5th grader chuckle
