It’s news everyone has been waiting for.
President Obama’s dog has an official photograph. Sure, it’s taken a long time. But we can all agree, after looking at the photo, that it’s been worth the wait.
Nice
Sitting on the South Lawn of the White House, Bo appears to be collar free. Although we’re not entirely sure, it looks like one of his eyes may even be visible in the shot.
Along with the photo, the White House has included a baseball card listing all the important characteristics, traits, and ambitions for the First Dog.
His favorite hobby? Playing on the White House lawn and going on walks with the Obama family.
His goal as First Dog? Make friends with foreign “dognitaries”. (bah-doom-bah).
How about an interesting fact? Even though Bo is a Portuguese Water Dog, he doesn’t know how to swim.
Sinister
This is normally where a feel-good story ends. But this is Washington. There’s always something sinister lurking. And leave it to the guys at Gawker to track it down.
You can thank John Cook in particular — who may just be the 21st century version of Woodward and Bernstein (he’s that good — he’s both people ) — for having the courage to track down this story.
If you look closely at Bo Obama’s baseball card, you’ll notice that the First Dog has listed “tomatoes” as his favorite food. Cook didn’t think that sounded right. So, just like the famed Washington Post duo from the early 1970’s, he did some investigating.

We still have a Texan in the whitehouse!
Oh she’s angry, it’s that “wait until I get home” kinda anger.
Meanwhile, US unemployment soars, the economy tanks, takeover of companies continues, our enemies are planning missile strikes towards Hawaii, our military budget is cut along with our security, the future looks bleak, our freedoms are being stolen, ACORN corruption continues, the US Congress ignores the American people, our Constitution is circumvented, patriotic Americans are classified as low-level extremists aka the enemy of the Fuhrer, DeathCare is being rammed up our rears even though the American don’t want it, Congressman and Senators are rude and surly via their staff on the telephone, political corruption is rampant and being exposed, the government is trying to take over our private lives, illegals continue to flood in and suck up our tax dollars, and the list goes on. The Fuhrer’s dog is about as important as a pimple on the rear of life.
Well this is coming from the same administration that thinks that Cheerios is a drug.
Tomatoes and toys are yummy for dogs to digest but everyone should need a prescription to buy Cheerios.
The party before Mary's death was, of course, “completely innocent.” No member of Kennedy’s press corpse, family, or the women attending the “party” has ever said what happened there, or who did what to whom.
What, no $400,000 trip for the damn dog on AF1 terrorizing a major US city for the sake of this one photo?
And there she is with her cute little ammo belt.
She can’t leave home without it.
They have definitely never been around dogs before. Even in a photo op, she is choking the dog.
Interesting that Hitler was fond of dogs as well.
I agree; but he is a cutie.
