WASHINGTON – The White House has hired actor Kal Penn as a liaison between President Barack Obama's administration and Asian constituents.

White House spokesman Shin Inouye said Tuesday that the actor who had a recurring role on Fox's TV show "House" and has starred in several movies would join the staff as an associate director in the Office of Public Liaison. His role will be to connect Obama with the Asian-American and Pacific Islander communities, as well as arts groups.

Penn starred as Kumar in the movie, "Harold and Kumar Escape from Guantanamo Bay." His "House" character committed suicide in Monday's episode.

Penn backed Obama during the campaign. The White House says a start date for Penn hasn't been set.

The hire was first reported by Entertainment Weekly.

Surely they should've also used the actor that played Harold too if they wanted maximum effectiveness for this Asian ....whatever it is

Lol, yeah, actors are soooo disconnected from their race. Obama dosen't need a liason to Blacks, he IS black.

He srsly needs a liason to conservatives though, even though that person would probably be shot for being a bipartisan traitor.

See folks, when celebrities campaign for you, the Democrats are sure to offer you a well paid diplomatic position.

Oprah has been expected to announce her departure to Africa as a new foreign diplomat.

Derek from Terminator: Sarah Connor Chronicles was recently killed. Obama will probably put him in charge of I.T.

Apparently he's taking a huge paycut doing this.
