There were some grumbling about whether President Obama should have appeared on "The View" today.

After watching, I can't say a bit of dignity was visibly lost. The ladies took the event quite seriously; besides bringing in Barbara Walters to give them news credibility, Sherri Shepherd wore her most dignified hair, a big old bun.

Were the questions tough? Nah. But the president didn't talk about whether he wore boxers or briefs. Indeed, I'm pretty sure he accomplished exactly what he wanted. And no, Joy didn't kiss him, and yes, Elisabeth did attempt to go hard.
