Boy, Am I Relieved!

Yes I am, finally! After all the distractions that have played havoc in the Obama administration, like financial crisis, North Korea, Iran, American kept hostage by pirates, Iraq and Afghanistan, finally some really important problem has been solved in America: the Obamas have chosen a dog!

The Washington Post has a great in-depth article about it, including the build-up, the tension surrounding the magnificent decision made by the American royal family. Included in the article is also the courageous input from Ted Kennedy, who is the owner of three Portuguese water dogs, just like the one chosen by the King. The article also emphasizes how friendly the relationship between the Kennedys and the Obamas has become…whoopee!

The news of the “final decision” was leaked to the press, and the WP wants you to know that they were the first to report it (I guess there was no secret Military Operation to leak this weekend to our enemies).

Also hinted by the article is a crescendo of excitement about where the new puppy will be sleeping at night. Ha, the good old days! I remember when Hillary Clinton and the White House staff had the same problem about sleek Willie!

Anyway, I am really glad that this issue of national interest seems to have been resolved, as the suspense was really killing me.
Now the White House can go back to the other mundane issues like how to get Richard Phillips and maybe other hostages free from the pirates. That, of course, after a nice pizza party from the chef from Missouri.
