It seems to be the trend lately for politicians to make guest appearances on television shows. In case you missed it, here's the clip of George Bush on Deal or No Deal yesterday.

President Bush on 'Deal or No Deal'

President George W. Bush will be making a taped appearance on NBC's "Deal or No Deal" tonight. He will be thanking contestant Capt. Joseph Kobes, a Purple Heart and Bronze Star recipient who completed three tours of Iraq. Kobes was a transportation officer who volunteered for his second and third deployments.

"The show's producers contacted the White House after learning from Capt. Kobes that the president is one of his heroes," said White House spokesman Tony Fratto. "And it really is, actually, an emotional moment for Capt. Kobes and the family. And so we look forward to that, and we all wish him luck as well."

Bush reportedly taped his appearance in March. In it, he wishes Kobes luck in winning the $1 million prize and jokes about the difficulty in balancing the budget as president by asking host Howie Mandel how he would feel if he were hosting a $3 trillion dollar reality show.

Kobes is reportedly hoping to win enough money to pay off his parents' home.
