You know, the same pile of dog shit that the politicians are dumping all over your heads, America.
Time for another TAXPAYER-FUNDED dumping:
"Dogs get their day every day on the Hill; D.C. lawmakers keep pets on hand" by Rachel Saslow, Washington Post | June 20, 2010
WaPo, NYT, AP, all the same s***.
WASHINGTON — They are the ultimate Capitol Hill insiders, privy to high-powered meetings between lawmakers and lobbyists, able to just saunter into congressional offices — no appointment necessary. Want this kind of access? Tough.
No, WE ONLY PAY FOR IT, you INSULTING PoS paper!!!!!
We’re talking about dogs.
I'm talking about DOG S*** DISGUISING ITSELF as a NEWSPAPER!!!!!
A couple of dozen roam the halls of power in the Capitol every day.
Along with the LARGER SACKS of SHIT called CONGRESS and LOBBYISTS.
“Treat time! Treat time!’’ booms Senator Christopher “Kit’’ Bond, Republican of Missouri, from behind his desk. As vice chairman of the Senate Intelligence Committee, Bond was about to go on television to talk about terrorism, but first it was Tiger time.
Yeah, OPEN UP, America!!!
EITHER WAY you are getting a BIG PILE DEPOSITED!!!
Now chew!!!!
Now you might think a specialist on national security would have a noble German shepherd or a muscular Doberman, and Bond is sure to mention that he grew up with Labrador retrievers and hunting dogs.
Those were Hitler's dogs.
AmeriKa uses them to terrorize and torture "detainees" now.
But Tiger is a 2-year-old Havanese, a cuddly toy breed that looks like a gray baby Wookiee.
Yeah, EASIER to KICK AROUND after the LOBBYISTS and AIPAC give them a beating.
“This is the first time I’ve had a fufu dog,’’ he says.
I could think of a couple more letters to add there.
Tiger is named after the University of Missouri mascot. She likes to lie on her bed under Bond’s desk and destroy University of Kansas Jayhawks toys.
Many congressional dogs have names relevant to their home states....
******************
Congress has a long history of lawmakers bringing their dogs to work, says Senate historian Donald Ritchie.
That would EXPLAIN the SMELL coming from down there!!!!
In the 19th century, John Randolph of Virginia often strode into the Senate chamber with his hunting hounds at his heels.
Senator Edward M. Kennedy of Massachusetts was known for walking his Portuguese water dogs, Sunny and Splash, outside in the grassy area next to the Russell Senate Office Building.
My FIRST QUESTION was it WASN'T a GRASSY KNOLL, was it?
Little subtle, CIA press code and INSIDE JOKE for anyone who gets it.
My SECOND QUESTION?
Was he REQUIRED to have a POOPER SCOOPER?
If not, WATCH where you are WALKING in D.C..
Better WATCH ANYWAY!!!
Representative Ed Whitfield, Republican of Kentucky, who rescued a Labrador mix from the side of an interstate and named her Julep after his state’s signature cocktail, also owns a Scottish terrier named Bosley and the rambunctious Jack Russell terrier Nigel.
It's JUST the THING I NEEDED TO KNOW TODAY, Globe, thank you.
The benefits of having the dogs around outweigh their rare disruptions, Whitfield said: “I think the atmosphere is better because it’s hard to be very formal when you have a dog jumping around the office.’’
Time for a walk, Congressman!
Don't you recognize the signs?
--more--"
