Any Wonder Politico’s Readers Are Leaving?

The number of readers who visit the website Politico has been decreasing and it is not hard to see why. The latest piece that the site has published is that Michelle Obama claimed she would like to come back as Bo the dog if there is such thing as reincarnation.

Obama claims the dog has a great life and therefore she would like to be that dog, or as Politico puts it, she has Bo envy.

I guess flying all over the world at taxpayer expense, living in a taxpayer provided house, and eating fine foods (while telling the rest of us what to eat) and having armed guards to protect her in a dangerous world is not enough for Michelle. She would like to be a dog.

Well, at least then Barack could keep her on a short leash.

As for Politico, couldn’t they find something newsworthy to report?

Does Obama Have Two Dogs?

A big deal was made yesterday because Barack Obama went to the store to shop for his dog and his kids. He went to Pet Smart and bought his dog, which was with him, an expensive chew toy and then headed to Best Buy to get his daughters a few presents.

I will stop here and say that the reporter who wrote about the trip was irresponsible when he reported what presents Obama bought for his kids. No matter how one feels about the man it is just wrong to report what presents he got for his kids because they might see the report and it will ruin it for him.

But the issue that is in the news today is how did his dog Bo get to DC for the shopping trip? It was reported that Bo traveled to Hawaii with Michelle and the kids and folks on the ground in Hawaii report seeing the dog there.

Did Obama have his dog flown back to DC for a photo-op to show he is a regular guy like the rest of us or does he own two dogs?

Since we have never seen two dogs the answer must be that the dog was flown back. That, of course, assumes that the reports of the dog being in Hawaii are correct.

If the dog was flown back, how much did it cost?

This is something that needs to be explained.
