I was wondering if TSA screened those dogs to see if there was any intestinal blockage. But that aside; when most Americans can barely afford gas and utilities let alone a vacation, this display of privileged elitist arrogance is just too much. I guess it’s now a dogs world because it certainly doesn’t seem to be ours anymore. Welcome to the change. Just my opinion….William McCullough

Just Plain Crazy – Obamas Dog Flies To vacation On A Private Jet
By: Doug Powers
Yeah boy, me and Big booty decided you’re gonna get your own plane, sweet!
The Obamas arrived at their vacation spot in Maine, and the local paper, the Morning Sentinel, described the scene:
The president was the first to walk onto the tarmac, dressed casually in a pale blue Oxford shirt and khakis. A few minutes later, the first lady, dressed in black capris, a tank-top and sandals, walked onto the runway. Shortly afterward, Malia and Sasha joined their parents.
Baldacci and his wife, Karen, presented the family with gift bags full of Maine-made goodies, including baskets made by the Passamaquoddy Tribe, popcorn from Little Lad’s Bakery in East Corinth, iconic L.L. Bean bags, University of Maine ice hockey hats, and an assortment of other Maine foods and books.
Karen Baldacci said the bags for Malia and Sasha contained one loon toy and one chickadee toy that sound their natural calls.
Arriving in a small jet before the Obamas was the first dog, Bo, a Portuguese water dog given as a present by the late U.S. Sen Ted Kennedy, D-Mass.; and the president’s personal aide Reggie Love, who chatted with Baldacci.
Not enough room on Air Force One for a Portuguese water dog and Reggie Love? Obama had to have a smaller jet (G3 Gulfstream, according to the story) serve as Air Force One instead of the 747 the president usually uses because of the size of the airport, but still, it’s a dog — and we’re all supposed to sacrifice in order to get through these tough economic times, right Mr. President? … Um, Mr. President?
Also..it is important to remember Obama did not get this dog himself..it was given as a gift..they can not refuse a gift..even one they do not want..I wonder if Teddy knew that to a Sunni a black dog is evil, or even a devil, in animal form.
Funny..appears it was opposite in this case..poor dog was given to a devil.
5) DOGS STOP THE ANGELS
From Bukhari Vol. 4, #448
Narrated Abu Talha: “I heard Allah’s Apostle saying; “Angels (of Mercy) do not enter a house wherein there is a dog or a picture of a living creature (a human being or an animal).”"
From Muslim, #5276:
Abu Huraira reported Allah’s Messenger as saying: Angels do not accompany the travelers who have with them a dog and a bell.
Though dogs are not allowed for pets, they are allowed to be kept if used for work, such as guarding the house or farm, or when used for hunting purposes.
They are to be kept outside,and if touched you are to change your clothes and wash your hands seven times. As they are considered, like pigs, unclean.
Most written on the subject is found in the Hadith,but the above is also in the Quran.
Is there a picture out there of the dog in the Obama’s living quarters ? I haven’t seen one, perhaps it is kept in a seperate place in the White House…
Not making excuse..the thought of a Muslim ruling America as well as this is sickening..and a shame..just sayong..maybe more to it than just wasting tax payers money..AGAIN.
