Barack eats bacon
By Barley • Jun 19th, 2008 • Category: Articles, Barleyblogger's Dogosphere, Most Popular, PoliticsThere’s been excessive talk of Barack Obama’s diet in this election. Covering his tail for citing the price of
arugula among corn-fed Iowans, he was forced to coyly reveal that he ate pot roast and jello as a kid in Kansas. We saw him down waffles and pancakes campaigning in Pennsylvania.
None of this meant a whole lot to dogs. Then my owner had “The View” on the other day with guest host Michelle Obama. I was dozing off during the “Best of Breakfast” segment. Michelle asked something about pomegranate juice, and I was zzzzz….
“We’re bacon people.” What? Bacon.
The ladies of The View were talking about my favorite breakfast food. It kept kept flashing on the screen, teasing me.
“Does Obama eat bacon?” “He’ll eat bacon,” Michelle replied. He’ll eat bacon.
And just like that, the candidate’s diet has become a relevant issue for dogs. The dogosphere is buzzing about Barack’s love for our most holy meal. Does that make him more appealing to the dog vote? We’ll poll it and find out.

Haha… I love bacon too.
Woof! A bit of a sweeping generalization that all of us canines love bacon! Screw Bacon! I know where it comes from… my human and I have long discussions about the meat industry and are trying to change this nasty, barbaric habit for cripes sake!! Pigs are animals too! I’m a doggie vegan and proud, baby! Tofurky Jerky and meatless pepperoni slices are where it’s at! Get with the program, my canine coherts! Move forward! And don’t forget to tell your humans… most store-bought dog foods are made of diseased animal remains and all sorts of sick shit… even the ones that claim to be “natural” or “premium”. And one last thing… dogs are not true carnivores!
Go vegan canines! And go Obama! ….we’ll work on the bacon thing…
Bacon eaters of the world unite! Yum, yum, yum!
Thanx Chiquita, more bacon for me!!! You may not be a true carnivore, but I am, and proud of it! Meat for breakfast, meat for dinner, meat for snacks. I don’t want to be on your tofu program - no sir ee - no thanx - not me.
Carnivores for Obama!! Share the bacon.
