Obama family, Bo, touch down in Chicago. Pool report
Chicago Sun Times ^ | 5/27/2010 | Lynn Sweet

Chicago pool report #1 By Anne E. Kornblut White House Correspondent The Washington Post

Shortly after takeoff, a surprise gaggle on Air Force One: with Bo, the presidential dog.

His owner was just a few steps behind.

President Obama watched and smiled as Bo ran down the aisle past a throng of cooing reporters. Obama cracked the old joke about needing a dog in Washington - since there's no such thing as a real friend.

Someone told him that Bo had been spotted at the airport interacting with his bomb-sniffing relatives. "I didn't want him getting into it with the Secret Service. I've seen them training," Obama said.

Coat jacket off, Obama seemed happy and relaxed during his brief foray to the back of the plane. (Credit to deputy press secretary Bill Burton for orchestrating the rare visit on a moment's notice).

Like owner, like pet. Bo tired quickly of the media, and headed back to the front of the aircraft. Obama followed suit, but not before assuring us that the dog was just going to see someone who feeds him regularly. Neither one took questions.

Bo made another spin through the press cabin a few minutes later, solo.

Uneventful trip otherwise. Wheels down 7:02 PM CST.

He's pulling out all the stops and trying to get the press to kiss his a$$ again - even breaking out the dog.

Pathetic.

Is he on ANOTHER leisure trip? While our Gulf coasts are destroyed and he does nothing?

Did Bo ask him when he’s going to plug the hole?

We would be better off with no POTUS!

I think it's so bad that Biden is now embarrassed by Barry.

I want to see a picture/image of Obama(a Muslim) actually touching the dog. I want to see pysical contact between Obama and the dog.

Bet you a beer it will never happen. It would be like asking Obama to eat a plate of Pork-Chops. never gonna happen

Especially hard when you’ve got a teleprompter telling you what to say.

good reader.

Bo, the presidential dog

The only dog in the world who eats Wagyu or Kobe beef several times a week.

Or that he would actually drink said beer (he's not touching mine, one way or the other).

You wonder if this press corpse (sic) gets regularly tested for STDs the way they fell-ate this guy nonstop.

First trip back to Chicago for the family since Valentines Day, 2009, according to the Chicago Sun Times. Obama has been back twice but didn’t spend the night. The family was just too busy to visit Chicago.

Instead of speaking at Arlington Cemetary, ZERO is going to speak at Lincoln Federal Cemetary which is the largest black cemetary in the Chicago area according to the Tribune.

wait... what? he’s already left for the weekend?? it isn’t even friday. wtf!

someone needs to count the number of work days per month this guy logs... then figure out his hourly wage.

he isn’t even bothering to vote ‘present’... he just doesn’t show up

and here i just read that they are ‘trying everything’... everything except actually putting aside vacation plans while simultaneously leaving early
