I love how Barbara Walters came back for this one and all the ladies are dressed in funerary garb to reflect the gravity of the moment, discussions about the president being on twitter. Sadly this president is saddled with being a cultural, economic and political president, which I’m sure he loves, but it gets to be a little too much fun to ask him questions about Justin Bieber, Lindsay Lohan and Snooki for my liking.

I understand the need to go more directly to the people with his messages to circumvent the apparently terrifying right wing attacks but I have to ask myself why isn’t he busier? I always think about the Pakistani wedding parties are getting blown up by drones he sends over there…

Mr. Obama may be the first sitting president to appear on a daytime talk show, but I’m going to go with Harry Allen on this one. His tweet below. This is why people don’t want newspapers anymore and are turned off by news, because journalism is pretty much dead.

Elisabeth Hasselbeck tries to grill the president on unemployment rather unsuccessfully. Does anybody actually like Elisabeth Hasselbeck? Doesn’t even seem like the other hosts like her.
