The Conservative Comeback has been gracious enough to give me some space here. So I'm about to introduce myself in a fashion that will be neither pretty or ladylike. In other words, it’s about to go all nuclear up in this joint.
I stared at this story for about five minutes in sheer disbelief.
Apparently Kal Penn is going to be working in the White House. Sadly you read that last sentence correctly. The actor who had a sex scene in a movie with an oversized bag of weed is going to be about ten feet from the West Wing. Outstanding. His official title: Associate director in the White House Office of Public Liaison. About as useful as Assistant to the Regional Manager. Or the Productivity Czar (New Office on Thursday!)

Look, I have nothing against this guy. In fact I actually loved the First Harold & Kumar movie and he's a fine actor. But when you've already shown to have poor judgment with new hires and appointments, do you really want to put a 30-something actor in the White House? Oh I forgot, this is Barry No-Substance we're talking about here. So the answer to that question would be yes. Yes, it will help shore up the Colbert/Stewart vote in 2010 (as if that was even a concern).
What's next? Flava Flav as the STD Czar? Yeeeeaaah booooyyy!
Question though: Will Obama be confused when Mr. Penn doesn't start speaking "Indian"?
Sure he'll be confused at first, but Kumar speaks pretty good American so I think he'll be able to easy Barrys concern.
ReplyDeleteHell, he won't be as confused as b.o.
