And well done. And thank you.

(Now disappearing back to being-with-my-mother offline, but wanted to say that. Also, what kind of puppy?)

Grin, will look forward to learning about the newest White House pet.

Still nail-biting over CA's Proposition 8 (about gay marriage), but very glad about Obama.

I looked up the miscegenation laws and I was pleased to see that I'd remembered right - Barack Obama's parents were illegally married in several states at the time of his birth. (I don't understand miscegenation and so my phrasing is undoubtedly lousy, but I still think it's bound to help the cause).

The puppy bit was great. Aw, go Obamas!

Amen to that!

Such fantastic news, it fair brought a lump to my throat. The hard work starts here.

He'd previously said something about a rescue pet or a dog from a shelter, I hope he goes with that.

There is much rejoicing (tempered, given anti-gay measures around the country, including a gay adoption ban in Arkansas that passed) in our parts this morning.
