Obama's Sirius About Water Dogs + L'ego Jesus

The First Puppy Makes a Big Splash

Who let the dog out?

*cringe*

That's the Washington mystery du jour.

Doesn't Chris Knowles use that phrase alot, "Mystery du jour", except in cases where it actually applies?

The identity of the first puppy -- the one that the Washington press corps has been yelping about for months, the one President Obama has seemed to delight in dropping hints about -- leaked out yesterday. This despite White House efforts to delay the news until the big debut planned for Tuesday afternoon.

The little guy is a 6-month-old Portuguese water dog given to the Obama girls as a gift by that Portuguese water dog-lovin' senator himself, Edward M. Kennedy of Massachusetts. The girls named it Bo -- and let it be noted that you learned that here first. Malia and Sasha chose the name, because their cousins have a cat named Bo and because first lady Michelle Obama's father was nicknamed Diddley, a source said. (Get it? Bo . . . Diddley?)

Whoever wrote this piece makes me want to throw up rainbows.

Bo is BO for Barack Obama. They didn't name that shit. I really wish those girls the best.

Bo's a handsome little guy. Well suited for formal occasions at the White House, he's got tuxedo-black fur, with a white chest, white paws and a rakish white goatee.

My head's a-spinnin'. Mason dog. Tuxedo and white gloves.

Dogon-it, they think keeping the identity of the dog a secret is a top priority. Tired of this clowning around.

Just for a strange synchronicity, my friend growing up had a dog named "Beaux" (which I thought was just "Bo")

Since some are speculating that Obama is a genetic reconstruction (clone) of Akhenaton (though others say he's meant to represent Tutankhamun), here's a building block reconstruction of Jesus.
