“Newt knows how to treat snakes right!” Wow, that’s a beauty! Is it a hognose?

A BCI.

Not 100% sure of the geographical sub-species.

Mine is a Colombian BCI and is much lighter in color.

If I were forced to guess, I’d say it’s a Nicaraguan BCI.

“Yeah, we ate dogs, but they were road kill.”

Well I ate dog meat a few times and once was in Indo, once in hawaii at a "Filipino luau"( happened to be the neighbors dogs, and yeah I felt kinda bad when I found out), Korean dog, Vietnamese dog and kittie, squirrel, snake, heck I've eated darned near everything on the planet that had meat. Heavens, I'm a regular infidel.

Cooking Stove? (I just used it.) That’s a pretty lame name for a lecherous cat.

He should be named Bill Clintoncat; he’s really cute as a button, but an unbuttoned button! - I’d guess 15 pounds. I think he once posed with a bottle of beer - the Lech!

Cooking Stove?

no, I'm usually told to get off that

I guess Obamuzzie took on all the power of that waffle he was eating—?

Does anyone remember this from 2010?

Obama: "They talk about me like a dog. That’s not in my prepared remarks, but it’s true."

[Kenton]

Yeah, well I’m pretty sure my dog once ate a skinny mulatto, so I can’t judge anybody on this one...

[Tamar1973]

Any small thing that might get the animal rights nazis to stop picking on Korea as though Koreans invented dog soup is fine with me.

[mel]

good point

[I Drive Too Fast]

I'm looking over
my dead dog Rover
who was prepared for the evening meal
once he was barking and playing outside
tonight he is dinner basted and fried

Okay, I took liberties with an old song.

[Impala64ssa]

So it really was a dog eat dog world
Yeah but in Nairobi, it's Kenyan eat dog.NYUK NYUK NYUK

[KTM rider]

this is precisely why the forefathers required a president to be a natural born citizen

if he was indoctrinated in a culture with rules and customs counter to american values and cannot produce a valid birth certificate AND everything he does is in deliberate violation of the nations best interest , why is he in charge and not in Guantanamo !

If you google this story, a lot of the media websites have "Romney campaign says Obama ate dog," or words to that effect.

You see what they're doing. They're trying to contain, contextualize, and control the story.

Romney's dog on the roof was something they reported straight, even though Obama's people were heavily pushing the story.

Obama eating dog is made to sound like something the Romney people came up with and "own" and can't shake, rather than a fact about Obama that's in the public domain that good journalists would have uncovered and reported.

The really interesting thing though, is that Obama wrote this in his book which sold millions of copies and nobody noticed it at the time.

Nobody -- nobody in the media that's supposed to follow these things, nobody else in the world -- picked up on this sooner?

Nobody noticed, or nobody thought it was a story, or nobody wanted to report it, or nobody read the book?

Ew. Ketchup on a dog? Yuck. Has to be mustard.   ;-p
