Obama campaign looks to First Dog Bo Obama to woo Americans

Francesca Chambers

With Big Bird out of the picture, the Obama campaign is relying on a new cuddly creature to win over Americans’ hearts and minds: The First Dog Bo.

Late this afternoon the Obama campaign uploaded a “Happy Birthday Bo Obama” video to its YouTube that features Barack and Michelle Obama. Ironically not about the First Dog’s fourth birthday at all and shows almost the same amount of footage of Barack and Michelle talking as it does the First Dog.

In the heartwarming video the first couple talks about how the first dog generally only listens to the President because he is intimidated by his “booming voice” and how compassionate the President is for letting Bo climb on the couch.

The video is clearly an attempt to make the First Family look more down to earth and help them connect to the middle class Americans Obama is targeting with his reelection efforts.

I thought dogs were considered unclean by the followers of Mohammad.

Bo The Dog is the only thing I actually have respect for in the White House. I feel bad for that pooch, he must wonder everyday when his master is going to eat him

Anything to keep him off the dinner plate.

If it walks like a dog, looks like a dog, smells like a dog, and sounds like a dog, it’s a dog.

Fitting description for zero’s campaign....

Well, this so-called "follower of Mohammad" used to EATS dogs.

"The Daily Caller noted that in President Obama’s best-selling memoir, Dreams from My Father: A Story of Race and Inheritance, the president recalls being fed dog meat as a young boy in Indonesia with his stepfather, Lolo Soetoro.

“With Lolo, I learned how to eat small green chill peppers raw with dinner (plenty of rice), and, away from the dinner table, I was introduced to dog meat (tough), snake meat (tougher), and roasted grasshopper (crunchy),” the president wrote. “Like many Indonesians, Lolo followed a brand of Islam that could make room for the remnants of more ancient animist and Hindu faiths.

He explained that a man took on the powers of whatever he ate: One day soon, he promised, he would bring home a piece of tiger meat for us to share.”"

Wow...

Nightline had a softball piece on Moochelle last night - same purpose, to ‘humanize’ her.

Put Bo in a debate against Ann Romney's horse. Bo would probably just slobber for a while and then lick himself on national TV... kind of like his owner did.

Gee, that will make my neighbors whose son committed suicide because of his despair over being jobless for 3 years feel ever so much better.

The undercurrent of the message being, “If you don’t elect him, he’ll eat me!”
