Well, I'm not particularly thrilled nor appalled, I just cannot help picturing him becoming Kumar in the middle of his job. The good news will be that chances are he will continue to entertain us all. The bad news is that entertainment will come from the Daily Show and Colbert Report airing clips of him in a not-so-flattering light.

IDIOT!
It's his life. He can do with it whatever he wants. He can always come back to acting. The Obama administration might only be in power for 4 years, so Kal is taking this opportunity while he can. I don't begrudge the guy for doing what his heart and soul asks him to do. Everyone has dreams and desires, and it was probably better for him to at least try, than to always ask himself "what if.."

However, I am looking forward to hearing what he has in part of helping the administration...

Just because he's an Actor doesn't mean that he's stupid
He's been actively involved in the Obama campaign before, and seemed to do a good job of it while he was, so that helped influence his decision to go back into it, and give it a concentrated effort.

You want an Actor to take care of your economies?
You want an Actor to take care of your health when you're almost dead?
You want an Actor to plan the way your country will work?
I have the right to be cynical.
Hey wanna know who also helped Barack Obama?

HEY , LET'S ASK JEREMIAH TO OFFICE. HE'S A NICE GUY.
Oh wait. He screwed up. Didn't he?
CYNICALLLL MAN SHOOTS.
HE SCORES!

Okay Yaka, continue hating and being cynical. Actor or not, he's still a human being with a brain, and every person deserves the benefit of a doubt before they're shot down by every cynical person out there in the world. And that's just my two-cents on the topic. You can continue ranting on about Actors, and Jeremiah Wright who I have absolutely no idea how he even got into the conversation. Considering that he is number 1 not an actor, and number 2 never set out to help Obama, and obviously only ended up hurting him.

Here's the missing link. Sorry I should have placed it : They're both not politicians. They weren't instructed in the stereotypical arts of making strategies that will boost nor the art of argumentation. One of them already failed. The second one is in unknown status.
This why I'm cynical. I'm not in favour of people outside the court of Sociology ( Even though Kal , but via double formation )/Politics in holding political jobs. Same thing you be cynical if an ex-actor had a needle in his hands ready to draw you blood.
Everyone's got a brain. But not everyone can utilize it.
Also...rant? It's not rant. A rant comes from a individual rambling, most of the times spewed in times of emotional hype. My cynical-senses isn't in that much high for me to lose my head and throw knifes and forks at you. It's a discussion. No need to be like that...

This is not a foreign concept to the world. Actors turned politicians. Kal isn't the first, and he *certainly* won't be the last.
And I apologize if you took offense to my statement of ranting. That wasn't my intent.

Despite the rather asinine characters he plays, Kal is actually a smart guy, and I'm willing to give him a chance. If he screws up though, by all means criticize him.

Love is not about admiring the strength or perfection of the person but to fully accept their shortcoming and weakness. - Me
