I got to see Buddy a few times at the White House when he was being walked by the Secret Service. He was a fine dog. It's a shame he had such lousy owners.

Pets sometimes benefit and help dysfunctional people, but far too often, dysfunctional people don't benefit the pets. Just another one of those balancing tests.

Don't you love how we are all characterized by the left as a white Christian man from Texas? If the left only knew the real truth....they'd probably be described as a white Christian man from Texas.

What about Socks?

I remember when the biggest controversey in the Clintoon White House was "what was the President going to name his dog?" It was the first half of January, 1998, and we all know what went down (pardon the pun) in the second half of that month!

I hope that the Rainbow Bridge is a drawbridge and that Buddy is made the drawbridge operator. That way, if he sees either of his scummy former owners approaching, he can raise it until the demons arrive and drag them off.

Where the f*** is it in the Secret Service job description to walk their G******* dog? We pay these people to provide security for the President not to be their personal servants!!! The Secret Service should have refused or at least sent them a bill for the costs involved.

... what happened to Buddy "is precisely what can be expected to happen to a dog when it's meant to be little more than a pawn in its owners' attempt to impersonate human beings. ... So Buddy's dead. Socks (the cat) they gave away. Has anyone seen Chelsea?"

Got a good laugh out of that passage.

Socks (the cat) they gave away

The only pussy Bill Clinton ever refused.

"Other readers wished her a "poetically just" death, like Barbara Olson's."
I can understand the leftist's foul-mouthed rudeness and cowardly threats but this one is just evil through and through. Why don't people like that just take themselves out to save the rest of us from their miserable self-loathing?
I've "owned" cats and can not believe Socks was not involved with Buddy's demise. Cats don't understand half measures.

Watch the 80's movie, MORGAN STEWART'S COMING HOME!!!

This movie is about a son who is brought home form years in a bording school to fit into his father's campaign. It's an 80's teen comedy; but it always comes to mind when discussing this aspect of the Clinton's.

Also...I have always believed that Buddy I was switched with a BuddyII when Buddy I wouldn't go near billyboy.

I recall the "new prop" Buddy coming on the scene, and he wouldn't go near the prez in the "walk to the chopper" photo ops.

After a few of these, a different looking Buddy (grown/switched?) would approach the prez (albeit, never with tail at full staff).

Was it just me?
