I was very pleased to hear that they prefer a shelter dog, if they can find one that doesn't aggravate allergies.


So was I. In these uncertain economic times and with wars on two fronts, it was nice to know that where the White House dog comes from is of great concern to our President-elect and to the idiot media who no doubt asked the question that raised that answer.
Is levity never allowed?? I'm sure people who do rescue work were thrilled that the Obamas plan to adopt a shelter dog. Now, more than ever, light must be cast on the fate shelter animals face if not adopted and seeing the First Family choose a shelter dog over a breeders or pet stores could just inspire others to do the same. I think it's great.



Was there any levity in his comments? I heard them and they sounded downright sober. No hint of humor, even in the "mutt" line he delivered.
