Here Is Bo Obama, ‘America’s Shelter Dog’

Look, it’s the mangy half-breed street cur Ted Kennedy dropped on the Obamas’ doorstep the other night. He has been wormed. The Obama family showed him to the press yesterday to prove that they haven’t eated him, yet. [MSNBC]

I’d fuck it.

Serolf Divad April 15, 2009 at 9:31 am

So when is Rush Limbaugh going to make a joke comparing the Obama children to the dog?

Come here a minute April 15, 2009 at 9:32 am

Marry.

Neilist April 15, 2009 at 9:35 am

Let me see:

1. Iraq imploding.

2. Afghanistan ” “.

3. Economy ” “.

4. Constitutional rights ” “.

And America’s attention is taken up by the President’s dog.

Ah, well.

No empire lasts forever.

It was fun while it lasted.

(Boy, am I glad I don’t have kids. I can just sit back and enjoy the Appocalypse.)

Terry April 15, 2009 at 9:42 am

Sooooo cute! Bo is the new Butterstick.

gjdodger April 15, 2009 at 9:43 am

Dewormed. As a veterinary pathobiologist told me, “The worms are doing the worming all by themselves.”

FaunceyGardner April 15, 2009 at 9:44 am

[re=289724]Neilist[/re]: My kids are glad you don’t have kids.
Have fun at your little “Appocalypse”.

InsidiousTuna April 15, 2009 at 9:45 am

Barry is so fucking white.

pondscum April 15, 2009 at 9:46 am

Nice camera work with the shot of Michelle’s ass. Quality journalism there…

jimmynail April 15, 2009 at 9:50 am

You guys are such assholes. In the Yoo Kay we’re looking forward to five/ten years of Etonians in penis hats and women’s underwear, on horses, *hunting and killing* cute widdle doggies. And poors.

Why, he’s like a little Rory Calhoun!

Neilist April 15, 2009 at 9:54 am

[re=289730]FaunceyGardner[/re]: Go back to your “Dog Update.”

The people who run the world appreciate your lack of attention, and “sense of irony.”

(Amazing how the Snarkettes of the Weimar Republic stopped Hitler, isn’t it? That arch smugness REALLY gets things done, doesn’t it?)

roasted on a spit, he could be washed down with tea, with a side of hobo beans, all cooked over a fire made from burning derivatives — making the most out of our great merkun resources.

GaySailor April 15, 2009 at 10:01 am

Heard Rush Limbaugh just say the Southern Poverty Law Center’s claim there is a huge danger in a rise in radical right wing groups, because of the Bu$hco. economy, is just an attack on conservatives and his good little dittoheads. Rush whined, “The guvment is always attacking conservatives as the enemy!” The journalist responded to his schlock with, “No one said conservatives, Rush.” Rush proves again his “conservative” listeners are actually “Anti-American Skin Head Right Wing Fascists” claiming to be “patriotic American conservatives.” Seig Heil, Rush, Seig Heil! Now go pop another Oxycontin!

magic titty April 15, 2009 at 10:01 am

Bo can’t bark without his precious teleprompter.

Bronkers April 15, 2009 at 10:02 am

Did the nets send out the trainees to shoot the video? Asphalt, shoes, closeups without anything discernable….

Impressed how Young Bo didn’t freak at all the loony attention. Nothing like an intro to all these tall humans with a slavering mob of journos a few yards away.

danadevin85 April 15, 2009 at 10:03 am

it’s always funny how the ones who are having a melt down because of the dog coverage waste their precious time commenting on it LOL

[re=289732]pondscum[/re]: Right?
That camera man likes 1st lady butts and he cannot lie.
He zoomed way on up in there and stayed for awhile.

AngryBlakGuy April 15, 2009 at 10:04 am

…oh c’mon Barry, all the other black people are going to laugh at you if you show with that at a pitbull fight!

GaySailor April 15, 2009 at 10:04 am

[re=289739]Neilist[/re]: Come on, man! Some of us fighting on the front lines want to laugh every now and then. Lighten up. I’m a gay activist, and gay sailor living in Oklahoma. You don’t think I need a break from the fire bombings by catching a joke at Wonkette’s every now and then? Jeesh! I wanna so “Poop Hats” today!

GaySailor April 15, 2009 at 10:08 am

“I wanna so ‘Poop Hats’ today!” so = see Jeesh! Hate typos.

GaySailor April 15, 2009 at 10:09 am

[re=289742]magic titty[/re]: Oh, thats good! “Bo can’t bark without his precious teleprompter!” bwahahahahha

GaySailor April 15, 2009 at 10:12 am

Does anyone have the number to “Call Rape!” I just got tea bagged, and he smudged my mascara while he was at it! I look like I have two BLACK EYES! Just kidding… Just got done feeding the horses and cattle at the ranch here in Oklahoma! Yee Haw. Can’t wait to see the Fox News viewers parading around the court house later today… Should be great entertainment. I hope they have barbeque.

bricks April 15, 2009 at 10:13 am

Has he been de-balled yet? I’d hate for him to miss out on all the teabagging action that’s going on today.

ManchuCandidate April 15, 2009 at 10:15 am

What? No pooping on the lawn or biting reporters? Damn, change has come to the WH pet.

BTW, here’s hoping that they don’t make any doggy Xmas short films this year.

MargeSimpsonsBlackFriend April 15, 2009 at 10:19 am

Can we keep the adorable shit to a minimum? I come here for snark, not adorable kids, cute puppies, and happily committed married couples frolicking on rolling green grass underneath the cherry blossoms!

Also: Breaking news? Really MSNBC? I weep for the state of our media. 4th estate my ass!

your right

everyone needs a aaaawwww thats so adorable moment

crikey_booya April 15, 2009 at 10:36 am

At 3:45 reporter says Bo can’t swim and the Obamas are going to have to teach him. Helloooo… It’s a freaking Portuguese WATER dog!!! Teddy may have given them a retarded dog, also.

Lazy Media April 15, 2009 at 10:39 am

Frances Coolidge is still the winner. She had all manner of critters, including a raccoon she pardoned from being eaten at Thanksgiving (no lie). http://www.calvin-coolidge.org/html/coolidge_pets.html

Coolidge used to lock up one of her cats to make it yowl. What an asshole that guy was.

pondscum April 15, 2009 at 10:41 am

[re=289765]freppish[/re]: No mention of Nixon’s dog, Checkers. Are these just the pets they had while IN the WH? Some of those lists are Llllooonnnngggg….

[re=289756]MargeSimpsonsBlackFriend[/re]: I come here for snark, not adorable kids, cute puppies, and happily committed married couples

Just for you, we’ll bring Cheney back to shoot them all in the face.

magic titty April 15, 2009 at 10:42 am

[re=289730]FaunceyGardner[/re]: Neilist’s kids are glad they don’t exist either.

Jesus Christ. The guy has already worked harder in three months than GWB in 8 years amd he can’t get his daughters a fucking puppy?

Neilist: Fuck off, you dim-witted child.

Min April 15, 2009 at 10:44 am

If there was any doubt that Bo is gayer than a rainbow of Skittles, the poof on his tail removes all doubt. And what are they feeding him? He looks twice as big as yesterday’s photo.

thefrontpage April 15, 2009 at 10:56 am

First of all, how many cups of coffee did that annoying anchor have? What an annoying anchor, no matter who it is. Just annoying. And irritating.

Second, yes, the Obamas are an attractive family. But what the hell is “a picture-perfect American family?” Really, we’ll ask again: What the hell is a “picture-perfect American family?”

And people wonder why people make fun of cable TV news shows. Really, they all should go back to journalism school for a couple of months, then come back and act like real journalists.

AngryBlakGuy April 15, 2009 at 11:08 am

…that probably chose him over other, more qualified dogs!

TGY April 15, 2009 at 11:16 am

It’s nice that his color scheme matches Barry’s down to the red collar matching the tie.

Custerwolf April 15, 2009 at 11:29 am

[re=289744]danadevin85[/re]: I smelt that irony from all the way over here.

Custerwolf April 15, 2009 at 11:31 am

[re=289730]FaunceyGardner[/re]: Did you feel that sting, Nelliest? Ouch. And so early in the day.

Custerwolf April 15, 2009 at 11:32 am

[re=289739]Neilist[/re]: Neils darling, pray tell – who are these “people who run the world” of which you speak? We need to sit down and have a talk. Really.

Custerwolf April 15, 2009 at 11:36 am

[re=289729]gjdodger[/re]: Thank you for the correction. The tapeworms were encysting.

NoWireHangers April 15, 2009 at 11:44 am

I watched that video twice, with a stupid, simpy smile on my face. I <3 the Obama Family.

ja April 15, 2009 at 11:48 am

i ate dog in China. it was pretty good.

Texan Bulldoggette April 15, 2009 at 11:50 am

[re=289747]GaySailor[/re]: “gay sailor” & “Oklahoma” are pretty much two things I never expected to see in the same sentence. Umm…good luck in redneck-ville, bubba. Make sure Toby Keith doesn’t mistake you for a cow.

WadISay April 15, 2009 at 11:51 am

[re=289719]Serolf Divad[/re]: I’m sure there’s a Ted Kennedy/water dog/Mary Jo Kopechne joke in there somewhere. Rush is working on that one. The “dog in the White House” franchise belongs to Newt.

Custerwolf April 15, 2009 at 12:06 pm

[re=289913]ja[/re]: Too ugly to get any pussy, eh?

jimmynail April 15, 2009 at 12:23 pm

Re: the tomatoes comment: I hopes waterDAWGs don’t have a yen for waterMELONS or them Obamas aint gonna have them nuthin’ ta eat, etc.

oldguy April 15, 2009 at 12:24 pm

Why is this dog not named Amabo? Or at least Bobo Obama?

inner_bomber April 15, 2009 at 12:34 pm

I just wonder what they’ve budgeted for Bo’s hair relaxer.

Yeah, I went there.

19kevin8 April 15, 2009 at 12:34 pm

John Tyler had an italian greyhound named Le Beau… So Bo is actually Beau Deux.
