Seems like it shouldn't come as a surprise to anyone, but here goes.
ABC News wrote: When President Obama sits down for his MTV town hall this Thursday, the audience of young people who will ask him questions will have been gathered by a casting call.

According to the casting call for the event from talent agency Backstage.com, first reported by National Review Online, the company requests applications for the event, asking what issues the person is “passionate about,” requiring a “short description of your political views,” and also asks for a recent photo.

“MTV, BET and CMT are casting the audience for town hall meeting with President Obama. Shooting Oct. 14, 4 p.m. in Washington, D.C. Seeking—Audience Members: males & females, 18+,” the casting call says, “To ensure that the audience represents diverse interests and political views, include your name, phone number, hometown, school attending, your job and what issues, if any, you are interested in or passionate about. Also, provide a recent photo and short description of your political views.”

He recently admitted he didn't really have any \"shovel ready jobs\" but he keeps showing up delivering bullcrap by the truckload!

He's so wrong he's even wrong about how truly wrong he is!

And on another note...anyone else notice that Joe Biden is like all the men on Gilligans Island rolled into one?

He's so smart yet he can't get himself out of an unlocked room.
He's a big grouchy senior citizen who has to be in charge of everything.
He's a rich elitist snob and wants you to know it.
He's a bumbling dufus who couldn't get a date if he was shipwrecked with a couple of hotties..
