Not on the menu

Who knew John McCain had such a sense of humor?  He recently posted a photo of himself and his son's dog Apollo, and told the POTUS that Apollo was "not on the menu" - a reference to the POTUS' book in which he described eating dog meat when he was younger and lived in Indonesia.  Now, you'd think David Axelrod would have read his boss' book before maligning Mitt for his doggie debacle, but nooooooooo.  Bad Dave! Bad Dave!  Dave, I've got news for you - it's a worse offense to dog lovers to EAT DOG MEAT (I don't care what age you are) than it is to put a dog in a crate on a car.  Seamus survived - the dog the POTUS ate - not so much!

So, in the spirit of John McCain, Mr. President, my dog isn't on the menu either!

Obama has "won" the dog wars - or is it that he "takes the dog cake"?

Okay, let's put another bit of Democratic idiocy to rest.  By now everyone has heard that about 30 years ago, Mitt Romney placed his Irish Setter, Seamus, in a dog crate on the roof of his car while he drove the 7 member family north to Canada.  According to the Democrats, Bad Mitt, Bad, bad Mitt.  But, what they forgot to check was Obama's memoir, Dreams from My Father - you know, the man who deserted him and left him to be raised by his white family (or whatever it is called) in which the POTUS admitted to EATING DOG MEAT while living in Indonesia.

Now, when I was the POTUS' age of the dog meat eating incident(s), I had pet rabbits.  There were members of my family who would like to eat rabbits.  They never ate any of my rabbits, and I never ate any rabbit meat.  Even at that age, some children have backbone, integrity and principals, while others show their early inclination to be malleable, sell their souls to get ahead and throw friends, family and pets to the proverbial wolves.

So, now that Obama has bested Mitt in the dog wars by actually having eaten dogs, let's put the now sleeping dog issue to rest and move on to the issues the President doesn't want to discuss:  the economy, gas prices, sustainable energy (not throwing money away to bankrupt companies), regaining our standing in the world, etc.  Unless the POTUS would like to move on to the Cartagena hooker wars next?
