You have probably heard that the Obamas have a new dog (named Sunny) and that Sunny came from Michigan. Because you are probably a decent human being who recognizes that politicians, even politicians you might not like, are allowed family lives, your reaction to this news was probably something along the lines of: So, the Obamas are dog people. That's nice.
The folks at the Daily Caller aren't exactly what you'd call "decent human beings." They went full non sequitur, noting that Sunny's home state has 8.8% unemployment. Is the conservative website suggesting that Obama should have adopted an unemployed Michigander instead of a dog? That can't be because, as Rand Paul might explain, once you start feeding the unemployed kibble, they'll never leave the house to look for work. Pee on the rug, also.
Also, hasn't the Daily Caller heard about Rick Snyder's relentless positive action and that Michigan turnaround? No thanks to NOBAMA, sure, but everything is super awesome in Michigan now.
At least the Michigan unemployment crack was an honest cheap shot rooted in fact. From there, the Daily Caller only becomes more unhinged and kind of racist-y.
Daily Caller: “In the past, Bo has been eager to help the First Family with their official duties, from visiting Walter Reed and the Children’s National Medical Center, to inspecting the Holiday decorations at the White House, to greeting guests at the White House on tours and during the Easter Egg Roll,” according to the White House statement, which creates confusion as to why, then, the administration still needs Valerie Jarrett.
Oh, and it ends with this line: "The Obamas do not have any white dogs."
Classy.
You know who else was named Sunny? Sunny Von Bulow. And her husband allegedly (maybe/maybe not) tried to kill her with an insulin injection. Will Obama try to kill Sunny the dog with insulin? Can we take that chance?
I just want my country back.
