  1. Does this mean McCain and Obama are going to sniff each others’ asses at the next debate?

  2. grendel says at 4:05 pm, October 2nd, 2008

    Something about “you can’t teach an old dog how to answer questions on teh Teevee”

  3. dutchie says at 4:06 pm, October 2nd, 2008

    Is it just me or does McCain look kinda yellow in that cover?

    Perhaps his stay in the Hanoi Hilton caused changes other than inability to use technology and a crabby disposition?

    YELLOW COMMIE BASTID!

  4. That is, like, damned funny.

  5. Special Agent Jack Mehoff says at 4:09 pm, October 2nd, 2008

    I’d rather not apply human traits to a valuable food source for the coming apocalypse thank you.

  6. SayItWithWookies says at 4:09 pm, October 2nd, 2008

    So this means we should RFID John McCain so we can find him if he wanders out of the house in his bathrobe?

  7. dutchie: They dyed his skin to match his teeth.

    The tan one on the back cover makes me think of Cindy for some reason

    ihasasad: there’s actually an awesome picture of Cindy looking exactly like that, but i can’t find it on the tubes. Someone, please help! She has on a blue dress and - aw, fuck it! - she looks just like that dog. Please find.

    The black dog’s facial expression is one of wisdom, empathy and steady leadership.

    The white dog seems to be confused and possibly defecating.

  12. Sara in the West says at 4:20 pm, October 2nd, 2008

    Special Agent Jack Mehoff: I don’t think McCain will taste that good–too tough and grisley

  13. superfecta says at 4:22 pm, October 2nd, 2008

    Awesome! I used to work at Nature, this is their best cover ever!

  15. A friend of mine adopted a dark brown dog from a family in Arkansas. They also had the dog’s light brown litter mate up for adoption. The dogs were named “Buckwheat” and “Alfalfa,” respectively. For reals.

    Josh Fruhlinger: I knew you’d weigh in on this one… it’s too good a visual for you to ignore.

  17. WhatTheHeck says at 4:28 pm, October 2nd, 2008

    One dog looks studley and the other, neutered… on both covers

  18. Scooter says at 4:29 pm, October 2nd, 2008

    Black Dog is my ringtone! White Dog is just white noise.

  19. wilmawonker says at 4:52 pm, October 2nd, 2008

    dutchie: yeah, he’s a lab.

  20. widestanceromancer says at 5:04 pm, October 2nd, 2008

    I refuse to accept McCain calling himself The Butterscotch Maverick.

  21. OzoneTom says at 5:13 pm, October 2nd, 2008

    Is jaundice a symptom of teh norovirus sickness?

  22. Now that the liberal media has invoked Led Zeppelin, the race is essentially over.

  23. commiegirl says at 5:40 pm, October 2nd, 2008

    Okay, that is fucking ADORABLE.

  24. CivicHoliday says at 6:32 pm, October 2nd, 2008

    The layout editor deserves a raise. Page design while high is really working for ya, buddy. :)

  25. ForeignSickSpecialist says at 6:42 pm, October 2nd, 2008

    Monkey: According to that norovirus in G’town, I think there’s enough ass sniffing going on in DC.

  26. Nature podcasts are aweseome. All the readers sound like Harry Potter characters.

  27. Josh Fruhlinger:

    In a similar vein, last weekend my local newspaper stated, in a column on pets and animals that are up for adoption, that black dogs and cats are harder to find homes for than white and lighter colored ones. ‘Course we are in the South, so…….
