1. Great picture!!!!

[southern democrat]

5. Dogs can sense good character, look at that Lab and JFK

That dog is not flinching on bit. That pic is genuine. They are pals.

[Mojambo]

11. Have you ever seen that pic

Of Bush trying to hold his dog?

The thing was just dying to get away from him.

[cheshire]

15. The one he dropped. Moron drops his dog. I swear.

[rocktivity]

20. Here's the moron dropping his dog

Probably because the dog nipped him!

37. Yea but this cat LOVES AWOL.........

[murielm99]

18. All animals can sense character.

For example, animals always like my husband.

He is a kind and gentle man. Our dog and cat both like him best. :(

The animals in the neighborhood always come up to him to be friendly.

When I told my dh that * was afraid of horses, he said, "No self-respecting horse would go near W."

Interesting that dh thinks first about the animals' feelings. That is probably why animals like him.

Kerry is probably the same way. You can see it in that picture.

39. Is that JK's dog?

I thought I read JK had a German Shepard?

BTW Chimp didn't add his dog to the evil empire until he was installed in the WH...

An older relative of mine made the observation that Chimp must be trying to copy FDR (They said FDR had the same type of dog and said dog was a fixture at FDR's fireside chats!)

[Jack from Charlotte]

36. BTW, Here's another picture of Kerry hunting taken last year.

[Worst Username Ever]

2. For some reason I thought John didn't have a dog...

[dogtag]

4. It's not his dog. He has a German Shepherd named Cym,

but for some inexplicable reason they never show him with his furry friend.

I keep asking for photos of JK on horseback and with his dog.

[Carni]

41. Ah-- I didn't imagine that then!

I remember hearing he had a German Shepard also!

Nice dogs! :)

[Bridget Burke]

6. This is not a "photo op" dog....

His only job is hunting. When not at work, he probably just hangs around at home.

[rocktivity]

19. If that's the case, I'm that much more impressed

because it means that to Woody, John is a "stranger."

24. That dog looks French. n/t

[MsTryska]

25. No wonder the damn dog hates him.

look how he's holding it! how would you like to be suspended off the ground by your belly, jackass?

what an asshole. i hate dubya.

[txindy]

29. I saw the newsclip today of JFK and that yellow lab

They were hunting geese and the dog was with them. As they were walking back, one man blew a whistle hanging from his neck and the yellow lab bounded up. Senator Kerry leaned down and the dog ignored the others and ran straight to him! LOL! As you can tell from the picture, they were nose to nose. The Senator was talking to him and the dog was wagging and wagging that tail. No doubt about it, dogs love him. I've always been a dog person. I'd recognize that body english from both man and dog anywhere. :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

As for poor Barney, the last time I saw him was at the 'ranch' in Crawford when Junior held that press 'conference' with Powell, Dick, Rummy, and Rice. Barney was in the background, leaving presents for Junior all over the lawn. ROFL! In order to cut Barney out of the shot, the cameraman zoomed in so close to Junior I felt like we were about to on a 'Fantastic Voyage' through his bloodstream. Sheesh. We'd all be pickled! :evilgrin: Barney made several of those little editorial remarks during that photo op. that day. Good boy! :toast:

3. Not a girley-dog

that's for sure.

[GimmeDANEger]

7. ahhhh

the gun's pointing at the dog!

[LisaM]

8. No it's not

you can see the barrel of the gun behind Kerry's knee.

[rkc3]

10. Nuh-uh - the gun appears to be a double barrel and is cocked open.

[No2W2004]

13. ahhhh

nope! He has the barrel open (like you're supposed to do)

Check behind Kerry's leg. You can see the gun barrel.

[AmerDem]

30. have your eyes checked

look again at the pic!

[seafan]

9. Here's another great photo from the WP home page.

14. He looks better in a ball cap.

[NewYorkerfromMass]

21. I'd let that guy pilot my boat

looks like a leader.

[TrogL]

26. "That's a man. A manly man. A man's man."

[demokatgurrl]

31. And people say he's not handsome!!! n/t

[SammyWinstonJack]

47. Well if they say that they are flat out wrong.

:-)

[cheshire]

12. A yellow dog. Very appropriate.

[MsTryska]

17. *lol* ! I didn't even pick up on that...

he sure is a yellow dog.

[MsTryska]

16. I totally love Woody the Dog.

which is saying a lot, because i'm nto really a big dog person. but that's a good looking dog. And as someone said above, a working dog.

he'd so vote Democrat if he had opposable thumbs.

[Lilli]

33. LMAO

You betcha. :)

[n2mark]

22. Dog

The dog likes Kerry, the dog looks like he accepting Kerry's approval. Dogs usually accept approval only when they like the person. There are only two people I would trust my dogs with--- my daughter and Kerry.

[maxsolomon]

40. you could trust me with your dogs.

i'm goddamn st. francis of asissi.

[Leilani]

23. We need pictures of Kerry & Cym!!!

I have written to the Kerry Campaign to PLEASE show us the man & his dog!

So many dog lovers...& it helps humanize him.

Please any Kerry people here?

I want pictures of Cym!

[progressivebydesign]

27. I can spot a doggy kiss on its way!!! What CUTE lab!! n/t

[oldschoolguy]

28. Great pic of Kerry in the ball cap..

I could easily swap hunting stories with the guy. Whoever said it was right--he does look like a leader.

[RamboLiberal]

32. Dogs, Babies and Kids all love and trust Kerry

All sense he's a good man.

Contrast to Barney running from * and babies crying and looking scared when * handles them. :evilgrin:

[captain disgruntled]

35. Kerry's doing something that's not instinctive for most people--

he's petting the dog's chest. Most people who meet my dog for the first time want to pat his head, and a lot of dogs don't like that--it's a dominant gesture to them. They prefer to be scratched around the neck and chest.
I bet * has never even noticed that, but Kerry doesn't display an instant need to establish his dominion over this dog. Great photo.

[Lilli]

34. Hmmm....If you refresh the page

it changes to a a pic of W with one of the girls.

[JI7]

38. i saw the other pics of that dog and he is so cute

i love dogs.

[Arkana]

42. I never knew JFK owned a Lab!

More reason to vote for him! :)

I own a black one--she's named Callisto.

[loudsue]

43. John Kerry is extremely kewl. He's the kind of guy that the chimp wishes

he was, and could never be.

Kerry is
Handsome
Masculine
Courageous
Smart
Ethical
Talented
Focused
Successful
A gentleman
An Outdoorsman
A good father
A devoted husband
A Statesman
A leader
And is kind to 2-legged and 4-legged people alike.

:loveya: I think I'm in love. :loveya:

:kick::kick::kick:

[Sacajawea]

44. I would LOVE to see a pic of JFK on a horse....sitting straight and tall..

...looking dignified and elegant, a la Robert E. Lee. What a sight THAT would be!!

[loudsue]

46. Bush would pee his pants!!!

I say, bring on a picture of Kerry on a horse!!!!

:kick::kick:

[RevolutionStartsNow]

45. My dog likes Kerry too!

He doesn't want some dog-dropping president!
