Definitely the Chinese Crested and they should get it in red.

[LibFreeOrDie]

The Obamas don’t seem like warm-hearted dog people. I’m betting the pup would escape at the first opportunity...

[linn37]

I voted for the poodle. Something about the pom poms made me think of Obama.

[AnAmericanMother]

Oh, fer cryin' out loud.

They're just saying they're going to get a dog, just like Hillary said she was going to adopt a baby and Bill got those poor Chocolate Labs and then never looked at them again.

Just get a Chia Pet or something, already.

(they deserve a Chinese Crested Hairless, though. Those dogs are so inbred and have so many genetic defects that they will certainly keep the Obamas too busy to do too much damage to the government . . . )

[Misschuck]

They should not get a dog. They are skanky people. The unconditional love and trust of a dog doesn’t seem to fit here. Move on.

[kbennkc]

They should adapt one of the wolves the libs and eco-nuts recently used to infest Idaho .

[Natchez Hawk]

With kids it’s a no-brainer, golden retriever.

[silverleaf]

I think they should just get a female pit bull and name it Hillary (after Sir Edmund of course)

From the article:

"It's been widely reported that – win or lose – the Obamas have promised their two daughters a dog after the presidential election.

Um, no. Not "the Obamas"--just Michelle. A few weeks ago Obama said he wasn't sure the girls were old enough or responsible enough to take care of a dog, and his charming wife instantly and publicly shot him down in a very emasculating way, saying "Don't listen to him. You're going to get a dog." He laughed. Apparently he has been gelded and doesn't mind his wife making him look like a fool in public.

It's going to be a looooong four years.

Nope, the perfect breed is a Silky Terrier, if one needs a devoted pet that is hypoallergenic, loyal, healthy, long lived, and super intelligent:

I suggest this one -

[Joe 6-pack]

I'm sure the Obamas could stop by Bad Newz Kennels and get a dog with a celebrity pedigree...

[LiberConservative]

I'm thinking Chihuahua.

Anything that's small, noisy, cranky and mean-spirited ... like Meeshell.

[MinuteGal]

Shades of Bubba Clinton's late dog, Buddy.

I feel sorry for any canine owned by that phoney, narcissistic Obama. Any dog of his will most certainly end feet up in Fort Barky Park.

Will it be allowed in the family mosque?

[MinuteGal]

Obama is trying to show how non-Muslim he is. Muslims are not allowed to have pet dogs. Mohammed himself forbad dogs and taught about killing them.

We'll see if he really gets a dog for his kids. Muslims today are allowed only guard or working dogs. That might be his out.

As for a breed for the Obamas, the AKC has scoured all of the "canine candidates" to assess each breed's credentials as potential "first pet."

I'm going to puke.
