A heavy lift helicopter was needed to fly FLOTUS

Bo, the president's Portuguese Water Dog, arrived separately on one of two MV-22 Ospreys, a hybrid aircraft which takes off like a helicopter but flies like a plane.

Maybe all the phony scandals will stymie him.
A heavy lift helicopter was needed to fly FLOTUS
I don’t think the dog has ever rode in a plane with them.
Seriously.
This is a subject we revisit each year.
Yesterday while driving,I saw those two Ospreys flying and was wondering who was in it or what it was all about.
Surprise surprise,I witnessed a dog being flown for its vacation, on We The People’s dollar.
I think it’s the closest I’ll ever get to anything obama.
This is why we need a cat in the White House,
Socks, or any of the other presidential kitties didn’t travel.
Don't hold your breath...
Good work as always, Nachum!
First dog Bo is airlifted to Obama holiday home...
... for dinner?

Ping.
Article, and # 25.
Even more from the article:
More than 70 hotel rooms, each costing up to $345 (£220) a night, have been booked out for Secret Service agents, who took charge of luggage including two large mesh bags full of basketballs.
So Obama on one plane, dog on another. Were their two more flights for the kids and FLOTUS?
An examiner article says Reggie Love is there too, but I don’t see it anywhere else, have you seen it?
Haven't read any other articles about the won's vacation, so I'm behind on the news. Maybe KB can help.
from Bumped by a Dog
On January 9, 1945, the C-47 transport plane [scheduled to continue on to California] carrying Seaman 1/C Leon LeRoy landed in Memphis, Tennessee . . . Seaman LeRoy was bumped from the flight, along with a Seabee and [a] Army T/Sgt. [home from the War] to visit his critically ill wife in Riverside, California [the plane was needed by a VIP dog] . . . The public was incensed, and the US Senate formed a committee to investigate the matter. Colonel [FDR son Elliott] Roosevelt had been due to receive a promotion to brigadier general on January 17, but this was held up until January 22 during the investigation."
Colonel Roosevelt and family all the way to the White House: "We didn't do it."
"They didn't do it," echoed the snoops of the era. Well at least they didn't scream RACISTS!
"No ethics please, we're Democrats."
gorush for POTUS!!!
ditto...........
So Obama on one plane, dog on another.
Yep, last time they flew together, he threw up
on the leather seats and pooped in the asle.
Then the dog got sick too.
I keep reading the headling as Presidential dog
air dropped to vacation spot.
Fetch the bone Bo, fetch!

Although I am still getting my land-legs back after a loooong sail with delightful young people, by golly I could never deny Lucy my help.
Heresa deal. Michelle on one plane, Bo on another, Barry and Reggie on a third. My spies have not told me where the kids were. One could be forgiven for thinking they were with Michelle and entourage.
You see, Michelle doesn't fly with Reggie. Barry doesn't fly with Michelle, and the dog Bo, exhibiting good taste, won't fly with any of them.
Now, explain "porter knorr" to me please.
Literally ate puppies, but Romney couldn’t go after him on it because of how he strapped his dog to the roof of the car that one time.
I’d probably put my dog on the Supreme Court ala Caligula and his horse.
Pinging to # 117.
Thanks, KennyB. Great post. I think Porter Knorr is President of a Swiss soup company. Or maybe I've got Porter confused with someone else.
