That was really refreshing, Moonie! He acted out the parts, stuck in sound-effects, stuff that I'm sure he's done for years for his own kids. It's nice to have a President who's not a pompous stuffed-shirt or an idiot.Moonbear said:Huffington had a hilarious satire too, written as the First Dog's address to the nation.
The puppy is really cute. It's good to hear it's an energetic breed, because after watching Obama reading stories to kids today, I can really picture him rolling around on the floor with kids and puppy piling on top for a tumble. Can't you just imagine someone walking in on him in the Oval Office playing tug-of-war with a puppy? (It was really nice watching a president acting out stories for kids rather than struggling to sound out the words.)

Moonbear said:Yep, and I just keep thinking what a wonderful role model he and Michelle are to parents everywhere. If the president isn't too busy to make time to spend with his family, anyone can make that time. It's such a nice example of good parenting.

Kudos to their parents -- and grandma.

"We don't have tomatoes," the first lady said. "Not yet," Obama reminded...
