GOP Rep. Michele Bachmann is scheduled to appear on NBC's Tonight Show next Friday. The appearance, first reported by the Associated Press, will be on Friday, September 16.

Bachmann will be in California that day because she's scheduled to speak before the California Republican Party's State Convention. It should be an interesting appearance since Tonight Show host Jay Leno has poked fun on Bachmann's history flubs and her stance on policy positions like same-sex marriage.

Here's a few of the Bachmann jokes that were delivered by Leno and other late night hosts.
