Political Pooches
As various awards and accolades are drawn up across the Blogosphere, my mind is on dogs.
It so happens that my wife and I are getting a puppy for our daughter this Christmas, which means we get the joy of surprise puddles and chewed furniture. But it also got me thinking, as I pondered what breed of dog we would be getting, that we pundits are like various breeds as well.
Here’s how I see certain individuals, dog-wise:
President George W. Bush – A solid hunting dog with a good nose and instincts
Senator John F. Kerry – Poodle with pretensions of Doberman
Donald Rumsfeld – Bulldog
Nancy Pelosi – Bichon Frise
Hugh Hewitt – Greyhound
Andrew Sullivan – Toy Poodle
Michelle Malkin – Chow, with very, very sharp teeth
Glenn Reynolds – Beagle
Howard Dean – Chihuahua
Polipundit – Wolfhound
Lorie Byrd – Golden Retriever
Jayson Javitz – Rottweiler
A.K. McClure – Shetland Sheep Dog
Me – Pointer, the kind that is great at times but also keeps you up all night when I speak my mind at the squirrel in the tree next door.
Those who wanna-be, but don’t rate any kind of dog:
Michael Moore – Sloth
Al Gore – Ferret
Anyone else?
