I'm betting the new crews are already being booked - although they might want to wait for the first screw-up before using the puppy card.Actually, I'd recommend taking a group of people and some cameras when they go to select a puppy,

I'm picturing a crack teamof PR advisors are currently in a meeting trying to decide if it should be a black puppy or if a white one would be 'healing'. They will probably end up getting a dalmation as a compromise.

Moonbear said:In that case, Barack should have never promised a puppy! "Here you go sweetie, don't worry if your airway closes off and you wheeze and sneeze all the time, you have the puppy you begged for, you little spoiled brat."
How about getting a lizard, or turtle? They're much better choices for a kid with asthma/allergies.
Cyrus said:Grow up.
Moonbear said:Um, so you'd advocate promising a puppy to a kid with allergies to puppies? Perhaps you need to do some growing up. It sounds irresponsible. I thought it was cool until it was pointed out that one of his daughters has asthma and dander allergies! That's not so cool, that's pretty lame parenting.
It was discussed at length with her doctor and decided that it would have to be a hypo-allergenic breed. Where were you when this was all over the news some months ago?Moonbear said:Um, so you'd advocate promising a puppy to a kid with allergies to puppies? Perhaps you need to do some growing up.

Why the heck would I be paying attention to news stories about puppies? There were REAL issues I was paying attention to. Good grief folks! I can't believe how insane people have gotten about Obama. You can't even point out that MAYBE, JUST MAYBE, a dog is NOT the right choice for his kids. I'll remember, the dictator should not be questioned.Gokul43201 said:It was discussed at length with her doctor and decided that it would have to be a hypo-allergenic breed.

Off topic.Cyrus said:Yep. Just like going on shopping sprees and having a pregnant daughter. You know, just for a point of comparison.
Nice job beating up on a 10 year old kid though. Really, spoiled brat? Have you ever even met his kids?
Also, you mean you want him to give 'welfare' to the animal shelter? Interesting.

Math Is Hard said:Ahem. I think you mean "dear leader", Moonbear.
Moonbear said:Off topic.
Oh, puleease! Do you not understand the meaning of SARCASM!? Hey, he's the one in favor of welfare. He should put HIS money where HIS mouth is before he expects me to put MY money there.
I'm sorry that you all think he's such a golden child and above reproach.

Wow! You really couldn't tell that was meant to be tongue-in-cheek?Moonbear said:Why the heck would I be paying attention to news stories about puppies? There were REAL issues I was paying attention to. Good grief folks! I can't believe how insane people have gotten about Obama.
Sure you can. But for someone that has never come across this story before to suddenly decide that it constitutes lame parenting based on a sentence that I wrote (and there were no maybes in the post) seems a little ... drastic.You can't even point out that MAYBE, JUST MAYBE, a dog is NOT the right choice for his kids.
The dictator? Good grief, Moonbie! Take it easy! This is a puppy thread, after all.I'll remember, the dictator should not be questioned.
