Obamas stop messing around Finally get dog?

This comes from TZM, which I suppose is reliable, but it makes me feel dirty just mentioning it.

According to the site, the Obamas have finally decided to get a dog.

We have lots of exclusive details on the Portuguese Water Dog President Barack Obama and Michelle are getting for Sasha and Malia. The pooch will make its grand entrance on Tuesday, and it's coming from a prominent Texas kennel, with the help of Senator Ted Kennedy's family.

The black dog -- a male -- is approximately six months old. We've learned it was bred at the kennel and sold to someone who gave it back. The kennel is now "re-homing" the dog to the Obamas. The dog was named Charlie, but the Obamas will rename it.

On a vaguely related note, I once interviewed the disgraced financial guru Michael Milken (shortly after getting out of prison). We had a nice enough chat, but when it was over, I realized that he thought I was Harvey Levin.

Ugh, now I really have to go wash my hands, Harvey may be slimy, but boy is he handsome!

You read it here second!

I dunno - you go from quoting a cat-hating columnist like he's friggin' Voltaire to looking down your snout at a celebrity website because their news is just as inconsequential as your own (only with fewer pictures of dogs wearing clothes). Be careful taking a shower in that glass house you live in, pal!

About the Bloggers

Daily Breeze reporter Donna Littlejohn has shared her homes with a succession of wonderful, funny, and occasionally difficult canines -- Muffin, Fritz, Ellie, Mercy, Pilgrim and now Cowboy, an Australian shepherd-border collie, and Tess, a border collie. From strong-willed terriers to weirdly obsessed Australian shepherds, they've invaded her world with boundless energy, wet noses, muddy paws and soggy tennis balls. But they've really brought so much more than that -- like laughter and joy, some unexpected life lessons, and more than a few tears along the way.
