David Spade thinks President Obama’s reality TV show appearances are “thirsty.”
Joe Dirt was not too happy about the recent episode of Running Wild with Bear Grylls featuring Barack Obama, saying he “thought a president should have a little more dignity.” A clip from TMZ shows David Spade being asked about a recent tweet in which he questioned the president’s appearance on the wilderness survival reality show.
Why is Obama on Bear Grills trying to survive in the tundra? Isnt the idea to keep the prez alive? And why is he on a reality show?Wtf ?
Spade told TMZ, “What president does reality shows? It just sounds weird to me, you know what I mean? It’s just too much.” The Saturday Night Live former comedian, who recently starred in the “unwatchable” Ridiculous 6 movie alongside Adam Sandler and the straight to DVD Joe Dirt 2: Beautiful Loser, also had comments about the numerous talk show appearances made by the First Lady. “I think that Michelle Obama’s on Ellen more than I am,” he said. “It’s just a new world. It seems a bit thirsty.”
Maybe President Obama is using the media to promote political policies. Ultimately, he’s bringing the political policy to people who may not be engaged.
