In America even today, Canine Americans are being locked in cages, are being chained up, for the simple crime of sleeping on the sofa, chewing up a book or humping a leg. My administration will put an end to these despicable, barbaric practices.

It’s high time to stop allowing a bunch of rules made by dead white guys to stand in the way of hope and change. I have become a symbol for members of the Canine community, the world over.

ROTF, again! That is too much! I think you need to form an organization – Code Canine perhaps.

Could it just be that he has been turned down by his top tier of choices.?????

The closer to the convention the VP announcement, the less time the PUMA folks will have to complain and/or organize resistance. The conspicuous Clinton homage in the Denver plan is just diplomatic cover for the otherwise unceremonious dumping of Hillary and her debt that will occur as soon as she no longer represents a threat — and a self-administered inoculation against accusations that she’s been treated with disrespect.

The text messaging angle is a boondoggle at every level. As long as the message is delivered as promised, it doesn’t matter when users pick it up. Those who are really excited about it have probably had their phones in their pockets all week. The only point of that whole exercise was to generate a list of difficult to obtain cellphone contacts for likely supporters and post-convention solicitations — among other uses.

For those that want to know, text VP to 62262. I have gone to “The One’s” site and looked how so you don’t have to :)

sprzepiora on August 22, 2008 at 9:34 AM

So O-B-A-M-A is 62262 on your telephone keypad …
6, 6, 2+2+2 = 6…
I can’t be the first one to have noticed that…

It’s going to be a boring white guy.

SouthernGent on August 22, 2008 at 8:23 AM

As a white guy I resent your inference that all white guys are boring. I, for one, am not boring. Why I had the whole room enthralled at the last Elks Club meeting with my explaination of the route I took to Panama City and the excellent gas milage I got on the way. When will you stop oppressing my people?!

Hillary! as VP is a laugh. She doesn’t want her star tied to what she believes would be a failed administration. Try running for president on your party’s ticket after Barry screws up the country. Yeah, the voters would be overjoyed to vote in another Dem. As for the VP pick, Barry will make sure it’s buried….after all, it’s all about HIM.

Duh! He’s waiting till after Limbaugh is off the air on Friday. Might as well wait till Saturday. The fact is that B. Hussein cannot bear to share the spotlight with anyone, so the longer he can delay having the focus shift off his glass chin, the better for his totalitarian ego.

“Maybe the truth is, Obama has dropped in the polls so much even a dog is having second thoughts about being his running mate.”

All Obama has to do is to offer a juicy ham bone and the dog is in the bag.

Dogs are so easy.

Listening to someone tout Hillary’s experience. What exactly is she experienced at? Campaigning? She’s spent more time doing that than doing anything else.

If it ends up being someone so obviously more experienced as Biden, I think the McCain can use his version of humor to mockingly approve and start referring to the “Biden Administration”.

I like that. A lot. Give Obama a taste of the McSame medicine.

I hope he chooses Clinton at the convention, and she declines.
