What on Earth are you talking about? The fact is that tens of millions of people use podcasts and subscribe to them and listen to them at their leisure. My freaking two-year old knows what a podcast is, though she may not pronounce is correctly.

The President's appearance on a late night show is kitschy and lowers the office. End of story.

question regarding BO's tonight show appearance - ODUIRISH - 2:34pm 3/19/09 (58) [View All]
- I wonder if he is afraid to go on Jon Stewart's show now? [NT] - LanceManion - 3:17pm 3/19/09
- "The fireside chats were nothing more than his weekly radio address" - McSweeney - 3:02pm 3/19/09
  - Mac, I think you misunderstand.. - ODUIRISH - 3:15pm 3/19/09
    - WE have convictions; THEY have agendas - Chris94 - 3:38pm 3/19/09
      - Most assuredly.. - Frank L - 3:54pm 3/19/09
      - Damn Chris...This post was based on your earlier analysis. - ODUIRISH - 3:45pm 3/19/09
      - Not nearly as many convictions as YOU deserve. [NT] - TakethetrainKnute - 3:41pm 3/19/09
  - 1932 Fireside Chat = 2009 Podcast (not Late Night Talkshow). - Lady_Irish_27 - 3:11pm 3/19/09
    - Tell you one thing - if people are arguing about Leno, they aren't watching where $1 tril is going [NT] - LanceManion - 4:05pm 3/19/09
    - And your insistence on elevating his appearance into anything at all is high comedy. - McSweeney - 3:20pm 3/19/09
      - Without turning this into a big argument... - ODUIRISH - 3:32pm 3/19/09
      - More people have subscribed to a podcast than have watched Leno in the last year. - Lady_Irish_27 - 3:31pm 3/19/09
        Please debate something you have a clue about. - McSweeney - 4:13pm 3/19/09

        Good grief. - McSweeney - 7:17pm 3/19/09
        The President of the United States in not selling a fucking book or promoting a movie. - Lady_Irish_27 - 8:14pm 3/19/09
        In Mac's defense, he's not nearly as bright as some may have been misled into thinking. [NT] - TheIrishHammer - 5:17am 3/20/09
        
        Kitschy? You don't know the meaning of the word until you can... - fredyo - 5:49pm 3/19/09
        
        Criticism does not equate to hate, dummy. - TheIrishHammer - 4:17pm 3/19/09
        I guess I forgot the criticism of Obama is well-intentioned and comes from a place of love. - McSweeney - 4:23pm 3/19/09
        RU attempting to privatize your area of this thread? Because it kinda sounds like you are..... - TheIrishHammer - 4:32pm 3/19/09
        Why do I need to privatize anything? This forum spends enough time already soliciting me. - McSweeney - 7:38pm 3/19/09
        I'm reasonably certain the word is "ideology," Mr. Editor. [NT] - TheIrishHammer - 5:19am 3/20/09
  - And Rutherford B. Hayes had the first presidential phone. Obama on Leno is not a federal case... - TakethetrainKnute - 3:10pm 3/19/09
    - Exactly. But then, this President gifted our strongest ally with a DVD set. [NT] - Lady_Irish_27 - 3:31pm 3/19/09
      - Seems comparable to a pen holder carved from the wood of the sister ship of the HMS Resolute... - TakethetrainKnute - 3:39pm 3/19/09
        You can find those at Wal Mart too?... [NT] - Frank L - 3:41pm 3/19/09
      - Scary, ain't it? [NT] - fredyo - 3:33pm 3/19/09
    - Yes, but the FDR analogy has me intrigued enough to watch... - Frank L - 3:28pm 3/19/09
- Nixon did a bit for "Laugh-In"...was on the Jack Paar show. Clinton played sax on "Arsenio", etc., . - fredyo - 2:59pm 3/19/09
  - Oops...reading my own posts. [NT] - fredyo - 3:27pm 3/19/09
  - ... during their campaigns. They were not President. He should stop campaigning and govern. [NT] - NDFaninNJ - 3:18pm 3/19/09
    - The office of the President has been diluted, over time. - fredyo - 3:31pm 3/19/09
  - I am so embarrassed to admit I loved Arsenio. [NT] - Lady_Irish_27 - 3:07pm 3/19/09
    - Was it the ET long fingers? [NT] - LanceManion - 3:16pm 3/19/09
      - Ya' know what chicks say about men with long fingers. - fredyo - 3:35pm 3/19/09
        Like I tell the ladies, it might not be long, but it's skinny [NT] - LanceManion - 4:03pm 3/19/09

      - To young to remember.... - ODUIRISH - 3:16pm 3/19/09
      - Dat be da fact. [NT] - Frank L - 3:13pm 3/19/09
  - I believe all of those appearances were prior to their attaining the office. [NT] - TakethetrainKnute - 3:02pm 3/19/09
    - Who cares? What difference does it make? We are getting WAY too wound up over a non-event. - fredyo - 3:08pm 3/19/09
      - I'm way more wound up over the actions of the Fed than Obama's cheesy appearance on Leno, thank you. [NT] - TakethetrainKnute - 3:12pm 3/19/09

  - Do you realize what a waste of money re security detail, etc, that is? [NT] - Killshot - 2:40pm 3/19/09
    - Isn't the security detail largely compromised of secret service? - Domer From Hell - 2:48pm 3/19/09
