Barack Obama to Make Appearance on Television Show Glorifying Reason

This is CONFIRMED as being kind of weird…

U.S. President Barack Obama will appear next month on "Mythbusters," a television series that uses science to investigate popular myths.

Obama's Dec. 8 appearance on the Discovery Channel show is part of a White House effort to highlight the importance of science education. It is one of several non-traditional media appearances by the president, who appeared at an MTV town hall last week and was interviewed on the daytime television talk show "The View" in July.

Too bad there aren't any interesting myths about Barack Obama that could use some busting.
