Eesh, where is that picture of Larry's dog from, Fleshbot? The yellow lighting and weird grain and the mens' come-hither gazes make it look like the opening scene of an adult film that is going to make PETA very very very unhappy.

My sister has one of those dogs, I think she paid $1200 for it and it's the stupidest, noisiest, yapping, carpet ass scratching, crotch sniffing and leg humping mutt I have seen.

Campaign Unveiling the Puppy = Campaign Jumping the Shark?

Good, God, has Larry no decency at all. Here he is grabbing this dogs ass to have bestial sex!

Ummm...actually the Edwardses have a daughter and a son...and Emma Claire is the daughter not the puppy.

Haberdashery? Someone needs to back slowly away from the thesaurus; keep your hands where we can see them. Now, go pick up that dictionary over there...yeah, that's it. F..G..H..Hab...ok, got it? Good.

@weazel: Everyone knows that you're not a first class blog until you do the obligatory Friday Cat Blogging. This is why Wonkette will never be more than a second-tier blog, and I'll never be more than a second-rate commenter.

Thanks for the Larry Craig fix, Wonkette. You know we can't go 24 hours without ol tuber.

Obama & Michelle promised a new dog to their kids first!1!

The only puppies I want to see on the internets are sweater puppies!

The Republicans used to call Truman "that haberdasher from Missouri." I think the use of "haberdashery" was a deliberate reference to the Democratic politics of the Truman years, he was trying to say that Edwards, by returning to the 40s-style policies of the Party, is bringing his children, symbolic for all the children, for the future of our nation itself, tasty treats like progressive taxation, protectionism, and national health care. So really, it was the right word after all.

@promnightdumpsterbaby: Wait, are you saying Edwards eats puppies, or merely outfits them in bespoke?

haberdashery is the only perfect word for stories about john edwards' blog, what are you people talking about.

Oh, God... it's worse than a "Sleepy Kitten" YouTube video.

Sorry I fucked that new-age hippie freak girl, honey. Here, I bought us a couple dogs. It'll bring us together. As a Family.

@JimNewell: I think you might have meant 'confectionary', but it's an understandable mistake. Like the haberdashery, the confectionary is in the Bancroft Complex of the SE Wing of the Edwards estate, but the haberdashery is on the third floor, right next to the millinery.

So, that's the snack for the real dog, right?

Nah, that's totally a Maltese. See the floppy ears? Plus you can tell it's only slightly larger than the dog biscuit lying next to it.

What? What are you all looking at? YES I HAVE A LITTLE FLOOFY WHITE DOG, WHAT'S YOUR POINT?

The floofiness. It is so adorable ...

Note to John Edwards: No LBJ-style moves around the puppies...ear hangs are verboten!

he prob thought "huumm Romney got a lot of attention with his dog story..."

@Outstando: All words i am entering into my lexicon.

and i'm adding a new element to the alt-text guessing game: certain posts won't have it, and it's up to you to figure out which ones.

@JimNewell: Oh no. Room 101.

Aw. I think it might be a Welsh Springer Spaniel? Either way, good taste in dogs, Johnny.

Guess he had to come up with SOMETHING to get people's minds off the affair...uh, unless they are thinking about female dogs, that is.

Oh, there are TWO dogs in the photo. The other one is maybe a Cocker? And the Maltese owned by Edwards' blogger is definitely not the same as Larry Craig's Westie.

For someone who has never owned a dog I know a lot about dog breeds. Of course, I could also be 100 percent wrong.

Next time someone gives you a tip about a story from his/her blog, it'd be cool if you'd reference them ... that's kind of a common courtesy in the new aggregation biz.

Wonkette actually got the tip directly from adorable puppy.

@Tra: Sweet! When can we get a picture? Larry's got a Westie I think.

@102415:

Maybe I should finally put up an avatar using his pic. :-)

@Tra: Yes. If you do I'll put up my IG.
