Pres. Obama told Harry Smith that "I would not want just a calm, passive dog. I want a dog with a little bit of spirit." Maybe so when picking a family pet. But when it comes to the media, PBO apparently prefers a lapdog. Witness Smith's tail-between-the-legs performance that won him a huge smile from the prez.
Over the course of two days, the Early Show aired clips of Smith's recent interview of the PBO. Toward the end of today's segment, Smith says: "People in the mainstream media have been accused of being afraid to speak truth to power. I've got some truth to power for you."
Was Smith building to a hard-hitting question on, say, PBO's firing of the inspector general who was too diligent in his duty of discovering corruption in the AmeriCorps, PBO's pet project? Of course not. In a pathetic display of precisely the kind of MSM wimp-out Smith had described, Smith asked the president a question about . . . his dog.

Harry Smith’s tail-between-the-legs question to Obama ping to Today show list.
Pffft. The dog’s name is Charlie. I refuse to call him Bo, since I know that name was chosen because it’s Zero’s initials. It’s always all about him, and I don’t think they should even have a dog to begin with, since they treat him as a prop.
So did Harry sniff his butt like a good lapdog?
You know the answer to that question. What we don't know is if it was captured on film...
"I would not want just a calm, passive dog. I want a dog with a little bit of spirit."
Michelle Obama, fashionista, bringing style and elegance back to the Executive Mansion.
she’s iconic
I’m sure he was humping 0bama’s leg while this was going on. The media cannot help themselves.
Michelle is the most BEAUTIFUL, ELEGANT, GRACEFUL, WELL-DRESSED First Lady we have EVER had! Jackie-O was NOTHING.....Nancy Reagan was LESS than nothing.....Michelle O is simply the BEST!! SARC Squared!
A little off topic, but is anybody talking about the creepy “joke” Barry Sotero told at the press ball or whatever it’s called? The one where BS says he was “lying awake at night, in bed” contemplating something or other, and so he rolled over and queried Brian Williams (?) So BS admits he not only sleeps with the media, he is gay as well? Anyone?
Bo herding a cow?
I’ll go out on a limb here and venture a guess that “Bo” will have as long a stay with the 0bamas as did Socks and that poor Lab had with the Klinton’s after leaving the People’s House.
