Monday, 17 May 2010
The Obamas' dog Bo is valued at $1,600 Barack Obama made millions in book royalties last year and took delivery of a special $1,600 gift - the family dog Bo, financial records show. Royalties from "Dreams From My Father" and "Audacity of Hope" earned him at least $1m each, according to filings released by the White House.
Bo, a Portuguese water dog given to the Obamas by the late Senator Edward Kennedy and his wife was valued at $1,600 in Mr Obama's financial disclosure form.
The value of Mr Obama's Nobel peace prize medal and diploma were "not readily ascertainable", the document said.
But he donated to charity the award's $1.4m prize money.

...Bravo, but to what charity did this wwwwonderful donation go to? Or, is that un-obtainable???
Is the name ‘BO’ a play on obamma initials?
One way or another, Zero always makes sure it's about him.
Just another Obama lie - didn’t he say he was going to get a “shelter dog?”
Poor Bo probably yet again, caught the wrath of a size 11 Kenyan loafer in the ribs after Chip Reid put the Poser on the spot today.
Perhaps the sole good hire the Obama administration has made.
At least Bo has value, DumBO is worthless.
And, unlike Ubama, Bo has papers.
