A gaggle of world leaders is assembling in New York today as part of the latest U.N. confab.

President Barack Obama will be in the Big Apple, too. On his agenda – chatting up Whoopi Goldberg, Barbara Walters and the rest of the women of “The View.”

Yes, the president is once again putting his celebrity connections ahead of, you know, being presidential. He’s handed off the heavy lifting to Secretary of State Hillary Clinton while he preps to swing at softball questions thrown by the far-left of center show.

Obama won’t be ignoring this week’s U.N. gathering entirely. He’ll be visiting the U.N.’s headquarters tomorrow in order to condemn the anti-Muslim film (and indirectly trash the First Amendment) one more time before a receptive audience.
