There Is Such a Thing As Too Much Publicity

President Obama is set to appear this Thursday on… The View? That’s right:

President Obama has many “firsts” in his list of accomplishments. Now he’s got one more: On Thursday, he will be the first sitting U.S. president to be seen on a daytime talk show.

Obama will appear on “The View” as part of the program’s “Red, White & Blue View” campaign, which is dedicated to political guests and discussions. He’ll tape his interview on Wednesday; he’ll cover topics that include his administration’s accomplishments, jobs, the economy, the Gulf of Mexico oil spill and family life in the White House, according to an ABC news release.

Joy Behar is all set to ask hard-hitting questions, such as, “Who does your wife’s nails?” and “Did you know how pretty your eyes are?”
