| Washington - For lovers of canine companions, one may be getting more than just unconditional affection from those sloppy dog kisses. A new study published in the journal Archives of Oral Biology found that dog owners had a higher rate of a certain disease-causing bacteria in their mouths. So those who are turned off by the sticky mess may have more evidence to back their stance. Japanese researchers examined dental plaque from 66 dogs and 81 people who came to an animal clinic or training school in 2011. They found "periodontopathic bacteria" -- the microscopic little guys

...the REAL question is, after reading about Obama's fondness for guy-pals, is:
Should you let your POTUS kiss you?

Typical American person has 27 different kinds of bacteria in his/her mouth. About 20 of them are helpful in keeping you healthy. I think the dog should be worried about kissing you.

Every dog has ability to lick his / her private parts.
There is no way I would ever allow dog to lick my face as well as go and lay on the couch.
Dog place is on the floor or on his mattress.
That's it.

Dogs lick their hinderparts and then lick your child in the mouth spreading worm eggs and whatever is on their butts.
I don't think so!

My dogs kiss me all the time, except after they kill a mouse or a snake. That said, I'd rather kiss them then the Mooch!

It's still magnitudes safer to kiss your dog than it is a new girl/boy friend.

I cringe whenever I see somebody kissing a dog or any other animal.

The saliva of dogs which have been bitten by ticks may contain a parasite which has been linked to arthritis, Alzheimers and other ailments.

I trained my dog not to kiss or to lick anyone but himself. I even scold him for licking his backside sometimes. He's so human like he probably thinks that he doesn't want to kiss me either. He likes hugs though.

THEY
LICK
THEM
SELVES
Before they lick your face. Only an unmitigated idiot allows a dog to lick his or her face.

Dial soap did a commercial on this a few years back. It showed a dog drinking out of the toilet, then licking its owner's face. The narrator said, "you're not as clean as you think...."

What did President Obama do on the evening of 9/11/12 when our men were under attack in Benghazi? The invaluable Andrew McCarthy reminds us that Obama and Secretary Clinton had a 10:00 p.m. phone call of which many (including, I think, Chris Wallace) have lost sight. This morning when Wallace asked Obama aide Dan Pfeiffer what Obama was up to that evening, Pfeiffer declared the line of inquiry “offensive.” Translation: Obama and his minions would prefer to “move on” and are warning the likes of FNC off:(Snip for video)The Weekly Standard’s Daniel Halper has posted the rush transcript

PRESIDENT OBAMA: You are the mantle of Frederick Douglass and Booker T. Washington and Ralph Bunche and Langston Hughes and George Washington Carver and Ralph Abernathy and Thurgood Marshall and, yes, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. These men were many things to many people and they knew full well the role that racism played in their life. But when it came to their own accomplishments and sense of purpose, they had no time for excuses. Every one of you has a grandma or an uncle or a parent whose told you at some point in life

WASHINGTON – The Internal Revenue Serviced scandal today spread further within the White House and closer to President Obama. White House spokesman Jay Carney today disclosed that Obama’s chief of staff, Dennis McDonough, and other top White House officials had advance warning that the IRS was targeting conservative groups. But he insisted McDonough and the other White House officials purposely kept Obama out of the loop.McDonough “rightly chose not to take action” to inform Obama, Carney told reporters at the daily White House briefing.

The Washington Post on Monday reported that Obama’s Department of Justice was investigating journalists before they started wiretapping the Associated Press – for one, Fox News correspondent James Rosen in 2010. Their headline wasn´t "Obama Team Also Spied on Fox News." Fox wasn´t in the headline, on A-1 or on A-12, where the story continued. Newly obtained court documents “reveal how deeply investigators explored the private communications of a working journalist — and raise the question of how often journalists have been investigated as closely as Rosen was in 2010.” Reporter Ann Marimow began:

"Can you see in your mind´s eye a way that this might not have been political, that this was a misguided stupid way to sort, but that they didn´t intend it to be some kind of political attempt to harass the Tea Party?" So actually asked CNN´s Candy Crowley of her guest Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) concerning the Internal Revenue Service scandal Sunday (video follows with transcript and commentary):CANDY CROWLEY, HOST: Moving on to the IRS problem at this moment, which is really sort of in its infancy. There will be lots more hearings coming up this week

A senior adviser to President Obama mounted a combative defense of the administration on Sunday, saying the controversies enveloping the White House were the result of Republican lawmakers’ trying to “drag Washington into a swamp of partisan fishing expeditions, trumped-up hearings and false allegations.”The remarks came from Dan Pfeiffer, a member of the president’s inner circle, as he appeared on all five major Sunday morning talk shows in an effort to move the administration past what commentators have described as a “hell week” of controversy and missteps.

Stuart Varney said this morning on "Varney & Co." that one of his producers was given a questionnaire with some surprisingly intrusive questions on it when he switched doctors. One of the questions was whether he/she was concerned about unsecured weapons in the home. Another asked whether he/she was "in a relationship in which you have been physically hurt or are you afraid of your partner?" Judge Andrew Napolitano explained that the question about guns comes out of a post-Sandy Hook executive order by President Obama, but it will be required under Obamacare. Varney expressed amazement
