It’s bad enough that the arrogant America-hating jerk is taking his 7th vacation in just 17 months.
But just when we thought the narcissistic POS in the White House couldn’t be more out of touch with real Americans, what with 17% actual unemployment, trillions of dollars in new debt, unchecked illegal immigration, the stock market tanking, confidence in the moron’s ability to run the country at an all-time low, and recession almost certainly heading toward double recession or possibly depression, we find out he had his dog Bo flown to Maine on a separate “small” jet before the incompetent imbecile and his family arrived in Maine.
And of course, there’s not a peep about this from the Obama-loving state-controlled media lapdogs.
Let’s go back to yesteryear and imagine if President George W. Bush was going on vacation to his dad’s house in Kennebunkport, Maine, and had sent his two dogs, Barney and Mrs. Beasley, on a private jet ahead of his family. Think the LSM would have not reported this? Me neither.
Oh, and have I told you I hate these America-hating pieces of crap more each day?
White House wanderers tour Acadia
Arriving in a small jet before the Obamas was the first dog, Bo, a Portuguese water dog given as a present by the late U.S. Sen Ted Kennedy, D-Mass.; and the president’s personal aide Reggie Love, who chatted with Baldacci.
“We’re ready. We’re going to do it all,” Love said with a big smile.
Air traffic at the small Hancock County-Bar Harbor Airport in Trenton was shut down for the presidential arrival. A U.S. Coast Guard helicopter patrolled the air in anticipation of the first family’s touchdown, and a pair of local fire and rescue trucks stood ready on an otherwise empty tarmac at the private air hangar.
The Obamas then traveled onto Mount Desert Island in a motorcade of at least 16 vehicles. It was led by two Maine State Police cruisers and included five black Chevrolet Suburbans.
The early-morning fog quickly burned off, and the sky was bright blue for the arrival of Air Force One, which in this case was a G3 Gulf Stream.
Technically, Air Force One is whatever aircraft the president is traveling on. It usually is a 747, but a plane of that size would be too large for the Trenton airport runway to accommodate.
Dozens of members of local and national news media were on the tarmac to capture the Obamas’ arrival in Maine.

Now, with all that being said, those of you imbeciles who voted for this socialist POS need to order this:
Stimulus.
I mean, just think. With a Keynsian multiplier of 2, this only cost a third of what it cost.
I’m kinda shocked Barry Soetoro didn’t have each on Bo’s cans of dog food flown in seperately, just to stick it to the man.
You’d think they could have paid off everybody’s mortgage with the trillions they spent. Or paid the companies not to lay people off.
Or how about just not spent it and lower taxes instead.
It’s as if their plan was to screw thing sup so bad that nobody would be able to fix it.

Notice that he took his vacatyion (the third since the Gulf Oil Disaster) to someplace far away from the Gulf of Mexico. There were plenty of places on the Florida Coast he could have gone to to show that they are still open for business. Last time I checked, Florida had golf courses too. It would have been a small demonstration of commonality with the millions suffering in the Gulf. A small demonstration of (dare I say it?) leadership, something this Administration has been thus far devoid of. That would have been asking too much from President Me™, I suppose.
I expect a 6 page rant by Ludwig about how this extra plane ride for the pooch killed millions of 3rd world babies.

That sounds like a Chinese take out order named after Barry-

If they had real affection for the dog it wouldn’t have been shipped seperately. I have a dog that I love and she would be in the seat next to me. LOL. Not for nothing, Air Force 1 is not commercial class where there is no room for a dog if it doesn’t fit in a carrier under the seat. I suspect the dog is full of puppy energy and too much work. This is what happens when you get a dog for a gift. Different lifestyle and personalities need different breeds. The Obamas might have done better with a smaller dog the girls could easily control and train. A companion dog breed, trained and bred to be just that.

Obama doesn’t love this dog. He has it because it makes him look more “human” to have a pet. I wonder if Bo will have an “accident” the way the Clinton’s dog did once they left the White House. Sociopaths do not make good pet owners…

To stimulate the Economy! Do you know how much it costs to fly a dog on a private jet? Michelle won’t let Barry blow that kind of money on hookers like a normal Democrat. Seriously, itr is about conspicuous consumption. They spent the money because they can. They consider themselves to be royalty, and the People are their serfs/servants/semi-slaves. This was just a relatively minor excersize of power for the sake of excersizing power.

In this particular case, the airport wouldn’t take a 747 (or even Nancy’s 777), so they had to slum in a Gulfstream G3. There was room for pooch in there, but they also brought a limo and a bunch of SUVs somehow, presumably by military transport (C131, maybe?). Pooch couldn’t go in the transport?

Hey, it’s a water dog, and they were going to Maine to be on the water, so of course they had to take him.
And they had to take him in a different plane in case he made water on Air Force One.

If they’d wanted a dog for love and fun, they would have gotten a nice custom-blend rescue dog—i.e., a mutt from a shelter. Of course, having a mutt might feel a little close to home for the President, especially if it were black-and-white.
But getting a fancy-breed dog is one of those movin’ on up to a dee-luxe apartment in the sky things that people do to show they’ve “arrived”; it’s not about the dog, it’s about the accessory value.

Maine: Somali pair convicted in medicaid fraud case
I don’t know if anyone out there is from the Detroit-area, but if you’ve paid any attention to the situation around here in the past five years, you have to be struck by all the similarities between the Obama administration and that of our former mayor, Kwame Kilpatrick. The arrogance, the entitlement, the complete disregard for what any sentient being would consider “poor taste” in the conduct of “official business” and the pursuit of leisurely good times. The horrendous results of this regime are very comparable to the complete breakdown of Detroit’s government during Kilpatrick’s reign as the “hip-hop mayor.”
The major difference is that I don’t think Obama will be subject to the same kind of investigative reporting, followed and accompanied by FBI-oversight, leading to the inevitable charges and convictions down the road. The Messiah is above all that, with the MSM on his side.

She seemed so sincere and like she was delighted to have the dog. She said, he always ends up on her lap when they are watching TV. I softened my heart toward her after that. Sometimes, though I think she was just giving a performance so pet people could relate to her. Which is why I often still refer to her as sasquatch. To cover my bases and show I have not been taken in by the possible ruse.

My problem with that it, is there is no wind barrier, no protection from the elements, and it is very dangerous in the event of a car wreck to be on top the roof. I wouldn’t put a pet on top the car and travel down the road anymore than I would put a child up there. It’s inhumane.
@ chickadee:
The dog was purchased for the kids, for the Family Look, for not appearing Islamic (thanks, Snork), for providing happy talking points to displace more important issues. And perhaps Michelle really likes him.
Liking Bo, or liking the Obamas’ liking for Bo, is convenient for conservatives too. It softens their implacable dislike and suspicion of those current WH residents. Hate your policies. Love your dog.
