Well, lets see...

the dog dies and they gave the cat (Socks) away!
They are definitely not getting my vote for "pet owner of the year!"

<wondering>
Were they so crass to get these pets as photo ops or image-building material while in the White House? And now they've outlived their usefullness?
</wondering>

I love dogs but I know it'll be cruel to own one and keep it at the house during the day while I'm at work and at kennels when I travel (which is alot now).

<< Ithink it's PATHETIC that this has become national news. There's probably several children who were hit and killed by cars today, and no one will ever hear outside of thier hometowns.

Stupid dog, shouldn't run in front of cars.

w0ot!

I bet if Dubya's dog got run over, you would all be upset. :D
Anyways, who cares. It's just a stupid dog.

I'm very concerned that Buddy got out, and was roaming free. I'm also disappointed in the Clintons that Buddy was not better trained than that.

Of course, as a news item, it's not very important, but understand that there are people who live vicariously through the lives of Presidents and other celebrities. So, as long as there are people who will be interested in this "news", CNN will report it.

I agree. This is not a newsworthy event. Shame on CNN for even reporting on it.

Still - poor little doggy. I gotta feel sorry for the doggy.

Do you think the driver of the car is going to have an accident or mysteriously commit suicide? ;)

<< Got Dog? >>


Yep, a 90 lb German Shepherd named Thor. Thor likes snowball fights, garlic-laden sausage, licorice, and cute female standard poodles. Dislikes include kibble and being ignored.

<^>

do you base the value of a life on it's intelligence? in other words, if some mentally handicapped person was run over and killed, would you say "who cares, it's just a retard"?

In related news, Ronald Reagan?s brain ran away from him in his presidential reelection campaign in 1984 but went unnoticed until last week during a press conference with his daughter, top officals said today.
