A Utahn in the White House
Even though our pseudo-native son Mitt Romney got bounced in the primaries, Utah still has a chance to have a direct connection to the White House.

You can join the campaign to convince the Obamas to adopt a family dog from the Best Friends Animal Society near Kanab.

Think of it, one of Michael Vick's rescued fighting pit bulls with its paw on the ICBM launch button and a hotline to Utah! It would be just like having John McCain in the White House.

Recently, the Obama kids, Malia, 10, and Sasha, 7, told Access Hollywood they had been promised a family dog after the presidential campaign ended.

The American Kennel Club offered the Obamas a list of purebred dogs. But Jon Dunn at Best Friends, has another idea:
While we love animals of all types here at Best Friends, we believe the winning choice for Obama and the dogs, would be for the Obamas to adopt. They can still get any breed they want, we would just like to see the dog come from a breed rescue or shelter.
Sign the petition urging the Obamas to get a rescued mutt — a Utah mutt.

Of all the gall.
Comparing a crazed pit bull to John McCain!
You should be ashamed, Mr. Warchol!
. . . a pit bull would at least sniff his enemy's nether regions before launching.

Mitt Romney is too educated, too successful, to accomplished and way too rich to give a damn about what a schlep like Warchol thinks.

Stop kicking against the pricks.

This is the best lame-ass blog in Utah. Keep up the good work.
