  1. Is that the same dog ? Either way, he sure is acting like he don’t who da hell Obama is.

  2. I guess he should pick him up by the ears as other Democrat Presidents, who have left a big mess, did. Cheers;

  3. I’m still amazed that the dog’s name is just Barack Obozo’s initials. Okay, not amazed. Not even surprised.

  4. Failure to recognize the omniscience, the magnificence, of Obama? That poor dog is just asking for an unfortunate “accident” to occur.

  5. He is on Airforce one and looks like someone in a chador going into the galley-be afraid Bo

  6. Poor mutt!
    He looked into those eyes and immediately realized “Dog F#@ker”!!

  7. Yeah, this dog doesn’t want to be anywhere near ‘bama. This dog is saying, “Get your insincere, lying, no-good, paws off me.”
    Dogs instinctively know if you’re bullshi**ting and will shy away from an imposter, i.e., anyone who pretends to like them but is either scared of them or couldn’t care less about them.
    Trust the Obamanation to use his dog as a prop.

  8. Ah, c’mon Occam. If he humps his shin it means he likes him. The pooch obviously doesn’t want to have anything to do with Oblahblah.

  9. Actually publishing that pic was counter-productive….obvious intent to make Maobama more likeable…..but it resulted in a pic like those ones of Herr Snicklegruber and his dog Blondi….
    It’s obvious that dog is not happy to see him and on the verge of “having an accident”.

  10. He only got the dog because the only way he could think of to get his brats to do what they were told and stop whining about being used as campaign props was to bribe them with the promise of a puppy if he won the election. Children being what the way they are, it’s probably been years since they’ve spent much time playing with it.
    Getting his pups a dog stands regardless as one of the very few promises Barack Hussein Obama ever kept when he had a choice—probably because he knew the help would do all the actual work. Anyone who seriously believes he’s spent a minute with the dog himself when there wasn’t a camera pointed at him probably believes he knows how to fire a gun. He probably has enough of a headache pretending he loves Jezebel and her pups. If the Lord is angry enough with the US to let Obama leave the White House in something other than a coffin, the dog will be palmed off on an aide or a DC shelter the moment Barry and Jezebel find themselves forced to walk the dog themselves.
    That’s exactly what happened to Socks Clinton, Chelsea’s cat and the only decent member of Bill’s family. Socks, who had come with the Clintons from Little Rock, was abandoned in DC by his owners when they left town. Buddy Clinton, the dog Bill sent out for in DC for PR reasons, persecuted Socks every chance he got, and the Clintons had better things to do than teach the dog how to behave itself. But for the aide who took the old cat in, Socks would have gone right to the shelter, and directly from there to the mansion in His house where the Lord keeps cats.
    The moral of the story is that children and liberals can’t be trusted with the care of anything with a soul.

  11. Hm, me and the dog feel the same way about de prez.
    Yep,batb, I’ve never known a dog who couldn’t spot someone who doesn’t like dogs a mile away.
    For some reason,dogs just love my autistic Son,even trained guard dogs stop barking and start wagging their tails when they meet him.He,of course, absolutely loves dogs.

  12. So many racist jokes I could tell if I were so inclined. Unfortunately, even I consider that bad taste.
    I still can’t get over the dismay of the animal rights nuts who believed he would buy a pound puppy and they forgave him.

  13. So is this dog, one of those expensive labra-doodles, bred to like everybody, well almost everybody?
    For publicity photos, the Pres would be better suited to using a stuffed dog.
    Does the White House have an official taxidermist yet?
    Or use one of the “journalists”, who sit up and beg, without even being asked.
    Of course, a real dog might scare off some of the M.B. allies.

  14. The dog is mostly cared for by a staff member. He is only brought out for photos. If only bo had lost the election, Bo would have gotten a new home.

  15. This cries out for a caption contest.
    My submission: “Hmmm, decisions, decisions. Merlot or Chianti?”

  16. That’s one very afraid dog that really does not want to be there. No doubt about that.

  17. While I dislike BO’s politics as much as the next guy, cut the guy some slack. In this pic at this moment, he’s just a guy hugging his dog.

  18. Dear Philm,
    that dog is not happy to be there. he is trying to get away!! I say this after having dogs most of my life. Anyone who has had a dog can clearly see it is trying to back up.

  19. Obama is saying to Bo, “I’m entering you in the dog show. Be a winner or be dinner!”

  20. BO to BO: Make me look good, c’mon. Don’t be a spoilsport. At least pretend I’m a good master … pleeeeeze. For the cameras … ’cause if you don’t, you #$%@#$!, you’ll regret it.

  21. Really, a Portuguese Water carrying dog? Our msm critters seem to have inherited the same genetics?

  22. A photo of the President of the U.S.A., on Air Force One is not just a snapshot someone happened to take of a guy hugging his dog.

  23. Kate/
    And remember the in-your-face name the shameless swine Teddy-boy gave him?: “Splash”

  24. Obama isn’t this dog’s main care giver. This is why I suspect that Bo isn’t close to Obama since someone else feeds him and grooms him. I doubt he would “lower” himself by feeding, watering, or taking the dog out for a poop at 3AM. Thats for a lowly staff member to do. This isn’t Obama’s dog. It’s a PR prop for photo ops and to try to put a human face on a sociopathic POS. the people who take care of Bo full time make more than most families live on in a year. Pretty overpriced house pet for the tax payer to fund.

  25. In the course of the never ending “sequestration” bad news, Fox reveals the White House dog handler – Yes thats the title, per annum salary is $100,000.00 U.S.

  26. I agree that we’re looking at one unhappy dog; maybe it’s the effect of a beta male trying to pretend he’s an alpha. Not sure what dogs respond to in people, but I always have dogs running up to me wagging their tails. I don’t particularly like dogs (except in the past when I’ve tried to herd sheep by myself and found out the hard way why the sheep dog breed was created) as they tend to be very needy animals which makes it difficult to get any work done with a dog around that always needs attention. Maybe they see me as the alpha animal. I’ve also noticed that dogs who are quite friendly to me will growl and try to attack other people and my impression in the past was that if you show fear to a dog, it will pick up on that. If I lived in the country, I’d have a couple of Dobermans or German shepherds around for security and I just don’t think it’s appropriate to have a dog, an animal that needs a large territory to run around in, kept in a city. Maybe Bo is showing his resentment of his status as a TOTUS prop.
    I suspect that the TOTUS is likely avoided by cats also as they are better, IMO, on picking up on unpleasant people. For some reason cats seem to be the preferred pet of hackers, possibly because they just do what they want and respond very poorly to aversive conditioning.

  27. So none of you guys think that maybe your judgement is clouded by your bias? That maybe you could be getting it wrong from this one shot? They seems fine in all of these other shots:

    And speaking as somebody who actually had one of these dogs, they’re goofy and a bit jumpy. Maybe he grabbed it playfully and ths photo caught it pulling back to wrestle.
    But nooooo. The dog is afraid of Obama because he’s a Black socialist.
    Seriously. Go take your pills before you hurt somebody.

  28. Go suck a lemon, John.
    I don’t see any comments here that fault the Obamanation for being black or socialist — just for being a phoney and a Poseur POTUS. Lacking in substance — not a surprise, given that he became President after only three years as a junior senator — everything he does is tied to a photo op, including having a pet. The photos you’ve linked to prove the point. There isn’t one in which he, the girls, or Michelle look truly comfortable with their new puppy/prop.
    This kind of photo op substitutes for genuine policy initiatives from this Chicago-thug-and-corruption-style White House which would benefit all Americans. Zero’s interested only in the low-information electorate whom he can bribe with cell phones and food stamps. His narcissism needs feeding 24/7 — and what more proof do you need of his unfettered ego than the fact that he named his dog after himself?
    Did I say anything about his being black?
