Nice To Know That He Has The Time....!

First of all, let me just say that I love the "Mythbusters"!

It's not only an entertaining show, but it also is educational! At least I learn something from it nearly every time I watch! I never thought that I would see the day that anyone involved in politics would be interested in learning something! It's been my understanding that they already knew everything! If you don't believe it...just ask them!

Anyway, I found this story in the Houston Chronicle to be quite a surprise, to say the least!

WASHINGTON, Oct. 18 (UPI) -- U.S. President Barack Obama has confirmed he will soon be seen on the Discovery Channel science series "Mythbusters."

"I'm pleased to welcome Jamie Hyneman and Adam Savage, known as the 'mythbusters.' I can announce today that I taped a special guest appearance for their show, although I didn't get to blow anything up," Obama said Monday at the White House Science Fair in Washington. "I was a little frustrated about that."

Hyneman and Savage attended Monday's "Educate to Innovate" event, which kicked off the Obama administration's campaign for science, technology, engineering and math awareness.

Obama is to appear on the Dec. 8 edition of the show in which he will challenge the hosts to revisit an ancient and controversial myth: Did Greek scientist and polymath Archimedes set fire to an invading Roman fleet using only mirrors and the reflected rays of the sun?

"Prepared to test this myth in a way they've never been able to before, will Adam and Jamie be able to pull it off, or will they have to report back to the president that they failed?" Discovery said in a news release.

Now doesn't it just warm the heart to know that the PTB have "fixed" all the problems in the country and now have the time to devote to being on a television show? I know that it helps me to sleep better at night! NOT!

What brazen audacity to stop working at the job he is supposed to be doing so that he can impress us all with being on a television show! I, for one, am not impressed with his sense of priorities!

I guess this type of action should come as no surprise, since the past actions or lack there-of, have shown just how unconcerned the folks in government are with the average, day to day, struggles of the common man!

Now, my friends, let's get some fresh coffee and sit outside! I need something to get this bad taste out of my mouth!
