Presidential Pets and my vote
Kerry has a beagle and a canary named Sunshine.

Having a canary named Sunshine is all I need to want to elect that guy.

Can you imagine that rigid, patrician, highly educated man saying hello to his pet canary Sunshine?

I love Kerry.

20. My goodness
So he does.

OK, I'm impressed. Not with the musculature so much (my heart belongs elsewhere <g>) as that it's evidence he really does stay physically active and fit--the windsurfing, hockey games, biking, etc, are not just a political act.

Hmmm... gregarious, outer-driven, team-sport player and intellectual, inner-driver, swimmer... nice complement.

2. He also likes cats.
I don't know if he has one, though.

I like seeing him roaring around on his bike. :)

Oops sorry, this isn't about pets, but I am responding to the windsurfing picture.

5. Bush is cruel to animals
Bush dropped his dog, in front of a bunch of now-traumatized kids no less.

7. Poor Barney...
:-(He's the ONLY current resident of the White House I actually LIKE!

The pic above's proof that Dub's not only a moron--he's a SADISTIC moron, at that!:mad:

16. His one dog was just put to sleep
after a series of heart-related complications. This made Dick Cheney very nervous

6. I still say someone needs to send John Kerry...
Edited on Wed Mar-10-04 12:17 PM by GainesT1958
A Kerry Blue Terrier! :D

Sounds like a good campaign--and White House--mascot to me!:7

--Seriously, though; we need to get more "positive info" like this out to people--I don't want "Chip" Rove & Co. to have a seconds' rest in our race with them to define OUR candidate--or to define theirs.:eyes:

:kick:

B-)

Now, ya know I'm kidding.

But sorry, as an ecologist and environmentalist, the image of Kerry talkin to a canary strikes me as impossibly cute.

14. Oooo
Kinda like Churchill trained his parrot to blast Nazis?

I'm a bad boy. I drew a Bush-Nazi parallel.
