Who cares about dogs?


The news coverage over the Obama family's dog is ridiculous. It makes absolutely no difference to anyone living outside the White House. Don't we have more important things to worry about? I mean, Christ, PIRATES are back! Shiver my timbers! We have the scourge of the seven seas roving about and here we are talking about dogs. It's no wonder the American public is so ill-informed. We spend all of our time reading tabloids and watching "Celebrity-watch!". Shouldn't we be weighing our opinion on the new taxes? The federal deficit? Global warming? AIDS? Terrorism? North Korea's nuclear ambitions? Who cares about a dog?! I mean, to quote Jay-Z, I got 99 problems but a bitch aint one. There are plenty of problems we need to deal with today, and instead of cooing over puppies, getting upset over the latest celebrity insult, or following the latest fashion trends, we should be educating ourselves in order to let America compete on a global scale in the future. There's going to be a wakeup call in the future, and I'm going to be sitting here saying "I told you so."
