Don't get into a tizzy over the dog joke

Apparently at this correspondent's dinner *every year* the President is expected to get up and act like a stand-up comedian. And every president has done it since the tradition began.

So George Bush joked about looking for WMDs, and apparently Obama joked about dog meat (what's the difference between a soccer mom and a pit bull, the put bull tastes better.)

And of course the message boards at Hannity.com were rocking - some saying that Obama was joking about eating dogs and was such a jerk, others pointing out that Bush had joked about WMDs, and it was no big deal.

The thing about the dog eating is, again, the guy was a *kid* in Indonesia, and that's what people in Indonesia eat, apparently! Heck, if you're starving, you'll eat anything.

If Obama had been a grown man and ate dog here in the States, then that talking point would have merit.
