Bo,The Obama’s New Dog

On April 14, the White House saw a new addition. The President’s gift from Ted Kennedy is a six month old Portuguese water dog. The First daughters, Malia and Sasha picked him out, a black and white puppy, from Ted Kennedy who owns many of the same dogs personally. When choosing a name for the dog, the girls’ said their maternal grandfather’s nickname was Diddley, so they chose a reference to singer Bo Diddley in honor. Since Malia has allergies, the Obama’s were considering either Labradoodle dogs or Portuguese water dogs due to their being great for those with allergies and also great pets for children.

On June 2, Bo will make a guest appearance on Pet Avengers. This is a Marvel Comic that deals with powerful pets and makes domesticated superior animals the miniseries plot. Bo Obama’s title will be “Puppy Power: Bo Obama”, that will also have a second non-fiction piece about Barack Obama entitled “Political Power: Barack Obama.” Superhero status has been acquired by his owner and family, so it stands to figure that Bo would get his time in the spotlight as well. In the story, Bo inherits an Infinity Gem, one of the Marvel Universe’s most coveted gems. The final gem is actually on Bo’s collar, where it was placed when he received it from a foreign head of state as a gift. Speculation as to which of the gems it will be is still being gathered. Of the gems, Space, Mind, Reality, Time, Soul, Power and Ego make up the gems available. Which one do you think he should get?
