It is of great concern to me that one of the stories that has been making national news before and since President Obama took office is the search for the Obama dog. Of course I am not opposed to the Obama's getting a dog. It's perfectly fine. Let him sleep in the Lincoln room, I don't care. What bothers me is why this fact is getting so much attention. Don't we have more important things to worry about? This couldn't possibly be something to distract from the fact that the stimulus package may in fact be a horrible idea, and after saying throughout his campaign that he was going to end the war that Obama just sent 17,000 troops to Afghanistan. Of course that's not the reason, I don't even know why I brought that up. Why would it ever be a problem that no one will seriously question anything Obama does? Don't even think about it.
