Actor Kal Penn (whose real name is Kalpen S. Modi), who now works in the Obama White House outreach office, participated in the conspiracy aimed at encouraging artists to produce art to serve as pro-Obama propaganda.
So suggest documents obtained by Judicial Watch as a result of a Freedom of Information Act request.
Penn portrayed 'Kumar,' a pot-obsessed would-be medical student, in Harold and Kumar Go To White Castle and a sequel.
The plot to use government funds to generate art promoting the Obama administration's agenda was revealed in a teleconference call run by the White House and the National Endowment for the Arts.

More importantly, he was the dude who played "Ahmed" the terrorist in "24" a couple seasons ago. Or was it Accchhhhhmed?
One is tempted to say, "How apropos."

More to the point, Kal Penn played a doctor on Fox's "House" TV program who ended up shooting himself in the head.

"who ended up shooting himself in the head."
--as i recall, no one knew why he killed himself, and it was a mystery House couldn't figure it out.
But now the answer is obvious: Kutner saw the future of Obama Care!

I think the scariest part of reading the full text of the Judicial Watch emails is not that these people are diabolical and in charge, but that they are stupid and in charge. A few random quotes: "AWESOMENESS," "Cool?" "I"m so glad to be with the cool kids," and "let's come up with some specific ASKs" for the "tastemakers." Who the hell talks like this? It's self-parody at its finest.

you right wing morons - this is nothing compared to what your last administration did.
no one abused the white house power more than bush and cheney.
