Obama: "Decision Finally Reached"

It wasn't on my need-to-know list, but I'll comment anyway. It's a nice breed and it ups my post-count (the comment, not the breed).
 
Good. Now that the dog issue is settled, Obama can concentrate on less important matters like health care and the war in Iraq. I don't know, those things just seem so trivial compared to the great dog dilemma of '09 though.

It's not completely settled. They're still arguing over the name. Health care may have to be delayed further.
 
Must . . . not . . . make . . . snarky . . . comments!

Phew! That was a close one! 😀

Luckily, Revolver was there to do it for me.

You mean like, "The White House has really gone to the dogs"?
Two blondes around 60 walk into two different doctors offices. They both have bad hips and need replacement. One goes home and waits for 3 months to get a MRI then waits another 6 months for her surgery.
The other blonde leaves the doctors office goes down the street gets the MRI and is operated on the next day and has a full recovery before the 1st blonde even gets her MRI.
Difference between the two blondes? One is a woman the other is a golden retriever! So what's exactly wrong with this picture?!?! Only the golden retriever cares what Obama's new dog is going to be named.
 
Oh look it's ugly! Just like them! (sw)
for a minute there I though that pic was of Michelle!!!

Have you actually come out of the closet to your friends yet or are you still 'straight' to them?

Anyway, I don't know what all the fuss is about.
I'm glad he's focussing on his dog - rather that then tackle some major issue that he will mess up.
Leave the actual politics to his advisors (that have probably spent their entire lives studying politics) and let him think up names for that ridiculous looking muppet-dog (actually its perfect for his presidency!).

YOU WISH.
I'm sure that he is actually doing his job, it's just that the media have siezied on this dog thing and are now dragging it out and making it a much bigger deal than it actually is to them.

This has really pissed me off for some reason.
I guess I should give my reason.

This breed is quite rare, so they want the exclusivity it brings but look like they are the 'caring' sort by getting a 'rescue' dog/
If they are getting a dog from the pound, it shouldn't matter what breed it is.

I would have no issue if they spent hundreds of dollars on a new pooch that was extremely rare, after all it is just a dog, but I hate the fact its just a publicity stunt that is incredibly transparent.
 
Just to be clear nothing racial is meant in the following statement (*clarified for clansmen idiots.*)

My friend recently told me an old saying he heard that pertains to this meaningless media hype.

"It's like a monkey trying to hump a football (US version for you soccer fans), a whole lot of noise, but absolutely nothing constructive getting done."

I guess with the state of the union, we need our happy diversions and traditions.

See Harms Way - THATS Michelle Obama!

I'm teasing. I actually don't think Michelle is a bad looking woman.

You sir, are a racist - or more prejudice. It appalls me actually that you maintain that stance when the whole world uses that term for its actually meaning and you, like every other ignorant American, refuse to accept it.

FOOTBALL IS NOT WHAT YOU PLAY WHEN YOU CALL IT FOOTBALL!!!!

the only rascists are the ones who continue to believe that football has anything to do with using only your feet to touch a ball. Whats wrong with picking it up and running? ;)

The reason is probably that he's so desperate to maintain his liberal face with the public that he gets a rescue dog to distract from bombing Pakistan.

About all that it illustrates to me is that they have no idea just what they're talking about. As has been pointed out, this is a rare breed and quite valuable. The odds of finding one in any shelter or pound are almost nil, and if the main issue is, as they claim, the fact that the children's allergies make the selection so hard, they will HAVE to get the dog from somewhere where the breeding is not in question. That means a professional, reputable breeder, not a dog shelter.

Of course, cost won't be an issue anyhow. There are probably lobbyists and special interest groups lined up at the White House back door with pedigreed puppies in their arms even as we speak. (Does anybody here remember Rickard Nixon's dog, Checkers?)

I wish what?

That you HAD come out to your friends?
No offence, little britches (sorry, watching Jungle Book), but most of your comments of this fashion sound like the rantings of a very camp queen.

You may or may not be gay/bisexual/human but you are at least VERY camp.

I know its a stereotype but its definitely one with strong foundations in homosexuality.

IF you are gay, I get the impression that you might be a Republican (or at least to the right), could be wrong, and the perception is that the right is against that sort of practice, so for you to admit something like that would be difficult.

Just so you know though, if you do ever realise you MIGHT be gay you can still be a Republican.
I, myself, am a Conservative (which is to the right) and openly bisexual, so have no fear, its OK to be queer!

you rhymed. also, we all know what homophobia really means. so his fear IS acceptable..
For those who might be interested, the "Checkers" that I mentioned above was a puppy given to tha Nixon family by an unnamed special interest group while he was in office. It's mentioned here:

http://www.historyplace.com/speeches/nixon-checkers.htm

It's fairly long speech, but a perfect example of a politician trying to explain how he really hasn't gotten any inappropriate gifts while in office. None but a little dog.

And a whole lot of bull.
