Everyone was very unkind to Bo Obama the dog, who celebrated his first birthday ever on October 9th. So Bo Obama was born last October, and then in April Ted Kennedy, not yet dead, bought the dog from a rescue shelter that was actually a reputable dog breeder and just gave him to Barack Obama. Anyway, Mazel Tov Bo Obama, also sorry, etc. but in retrospect it is probably a good thing that everyone was too distracted to offer up some TRULY WINNING bon mots about the President jumping the gun getting you a present for your second birthday. Chew on that—Richard Cohen’s wit—little puppy. [White House Blog]
I can haz rawhide bone?
if bo soetero is really one year old then where’s his long-form pedigree proving it?
Looks like Bo got dressed up for the march this weekend.
So where’s the WND/Red State frothing at the mouth screed about how Portie Water Dogs are the pet of Satan/Communist/Facist/Socialist/Reverse Racist/Librul/Demoncrap Furriners who are allied with the saucer people of Omnicron Persei 8 as described in Leviticus or Revelations?
Me, I’m a cat man.
Hell, I miss my brothers’ and sister’s birthdays by more than that. Nieces and nephews I sometimes forget entirely.
Happy Birthday anyway, bobokins.
On October 9, we were all Portuguese, and cute.
Yep, ain’t it just like those Portuguese, can’t decide whether they were Nazis or Communists or both. I say bomb the whole country and their ugly dogs and let the Lord sort them out.
I’d cuddle that.
A Portuguese dog gets a gift? For what?? What has he done??? He’s only been in the White House for seven months.
NOBOOBAMA.
NOBOOBAMA is my favorite neologism this morning!
Butterstick’s gay?
TVarmy: Sounds like the name of a character in a Star Wars movie.
NOBOOBAMA!!
Billy Kristol is mightily annoyed at this paradoy of birthday anniversaries, noting that the far more deserving Archduke Leopold V of Austria (1586 - 1632) was also birth-ed on October 9.
Plus, William le Grand Guignol wants Bo sold back to the Swedes Norwegians.
I grow old, I grow old, I shall wear my trousers rolled.
NOBELNOBOOBAMA!!1!
That’s what Barry should get Bo for his birthday: Richard Cohen to chew on! His old, stringy sinew should provide Bo with days of enjoyment, as well as contributing to world peace.
Vulpes82: But think of the doggy breath.
Ooooooooooh, who wins the Noble Prize for cute widdle doggie-doginess? Oh YES! *YOU* do you sweetwiddle cutie pie doggie-doggie-doggiekins! Oh yes you DO!
Vulpes82: That would be giving Bo the dog a Jew toy.
Get it? Jew toy/chew toy?
I hate myself.
I’m still trying to figure out this “retweet” thing– why would you want to retweet rather than just tweet?
Goddamn, could that fucking dog be any cuter??
Tweet & Retweet were sitting in a tree. Tweet fell down so that left…Retweet.
OK, Tweet & Retweet are were sitting in a tree…
Way Cool Larry: tweet tweet retweetle-itweet!
Rockin’ Robin.

Way Cool Larry: Thank you.
Way Cool Larry: If we retweet, that means the terrorists have won.
pampl: Speaking of things that sound like they should be other things: Bo Soetero.
Boso Terro? A Chilean winery?
B. O’ Sotero? Obama’s Muslim-Irish cousin?
Beauseau Terreau? A rural parish in Louisiana?
‘Bos-Ote-Ro? A tropical disease endemic to Namibia?
And I wonder why I never get merit raises.
Wazzup? Dog’s been here too long. Can we move on to the next item?
ManchuCandidate: Really, it’s low-hanging fruit.
Portuguese + Water = Provincetown!
GAY GAY GAY!
Today, we are all dogs.
Um, Bo old pal? Just fair warning, but usually around this time they take you to an antiseptic little room, slip you a couple of roofies, and cut your balls off. Just a word to the wise.
And get now a word on the blog about the HRC dinner yesterday.
Guess the dog is more important than gay rights.
Holy Cow!!: Damn right. That dog will be cute FOREVER. Ghey is just a fad, and buttsecks is chitty.
Holy Cow!!: You realize, of course, that any post on that dinner here would likely not be an earnest plea for tolerance and equality before the law, right?
Oh and, “get now a word”? Is this like, “get thee to the nunnery” or somesuch?
It’s the birtday of some special today:

Does that thing have eyes? I can’t tell.
x111e7thst: Jebus. We are freakin’ doomed.
I meant the White House’s blog.
New line of ‘Bo Obama’ action figures in 3…2…1
x111e7thst: I AM COMPLETELY NEUROTIC BECAUSE OF MY CAT AND MY CAT ALONE. Thank god I now have a reason.
A slow news day is a Bo news day.
x111e7thst: This builds a strong case for repealing cat owner sufferage.
Cat owners end up voting for candidates who are furry, purr a lot and chase rodents. Exactly the wrong kind of people we need running our country.
x111e7thst: Interesting article. Although it occurred to me you could become neurotic faster, if you cut out the middle man (rodents) and ate your cat’s feces directly.
Waitasec. I guess if you did that, you’d already be pretty far-gone neurotic.
user-of-owls: This relates very vaguely to my contention that the President could disarm the wingnuts by changing the spelling of his family name to O’Baughma.
OMG! The President’s dog just got lei’d! O.K. Now I have that hoary pun out of my system, I can get back to choosing tomorrow’s pajamas and velvet dressing slippers.
