According to the Chicago Tribune

Quote:The First Pooch is a gift from Sen. Edward Kennedy (D-Mass.), who owns three so-called porties and wanted the Obamas to follow suit.

The housebroken puppy was named Charlie by his original owners, but Malia and Sasha Obama rechristened him Bo in honor of their cousin's cat of the same name.

Ok, still bad, but not egotistic I want to see the cat and the birth certificate.

what if the cat was a Kenyan Sokoke. I could imagine the banter.

There is no cat....the dog discriminates against them.

The irony of Teddy Kennedy owning a water dog is quite delicious.

BTW - I used to work for a guy who was the last boyfriend of Mary Joe Kopechne.

FIFY (unless you used to work in the Senate).

Touche.

BTW - the story of Joan Bennet Kennedy, who was Ted Kennedy's wife from 58-82, is really quite sad. Cancer, alcoholism, miscarriages, Chappaquiddick etc...

Yeah, we can forgive you. You went to Marshall and lived in WV so that can be expected.

I know it's fun to pick on WV, but you know that WV is a heavily democratic state don't you?

He doesn't care about that. His only concern is whether or not there are a lot of muslims living there.

Can't you cut me a break? I've done some charity/community service work over the past few years .... I hired a couple of NIU grads.
