President Obama - ADVOCATE for dogs

May 31st, 2008

As if we didn’t love him enough already, now we can add this to Obama’s resume: Three Legged Dog Lover and Anti-Puppy Mill Advocate!

Visit “A Rare Breed of Love,” and learn more about Baby, an abused puppy mill survivor and “national spokesdog” raising awareness about cruelty in the dog breeding industry

1. Great effort on his part (I've seen the ad before), BUT... including the congrats to Lurie and Vick
in a call that was supposed to celebrate green energy was still a MONUMENTALLY stupid move, both ethically and PR-wise.

I enthusiastically applauded the Pres for this a while ago, but thanks for drawing more attention to a good issue.

2. Well, then. Seems like we need to get him to
do a photo-op hugging an unemployed, homeless person, (or destitute family) in front of some patriotic backdrop next. They, (we) do sincerely need an advocate and since dogs are proven to be of value to this President, then it shouldn't take much to move-on-up to the human level, now, huh?

I can't wait to see the "national spokeshomeless" raising awareness about cruelty to hundreds-of-thousands across the country and their skyrocketing numbers.

That's a really rare breed of love right now.

7. Well, I had my doubts about him, I guess maybe we all did but if he's a dog lover well
then he's OK by me.

9. Did that recent unrecommend come from an Obama-hater, or a dog-hater?
Or perhaps, BOTH? (Sad!)

11. Many folks have UNrec'd this thread.
Yes, it is sad.
I'm getting pretty disgusted :(
Probably time for me to take a break and go somewhere else where there are less H8ers.

14. Hang in there, Good Buddy, and keep the faith!
This is just a temporary madness that DU is going through! The most important item on our plate will be the 2012 election! Obama has his eye firmly on that goal, while the "triumphant" Reptilicans are already disgracing themselves before the American electorate --- even before they're sworn in next week! So be of Good Cheer!
