Via Breitbart, Barney the White House Dog does what others often fail to do, defend W.
Reuters political reporter Jon Decker had finished an interview with MSNBC around 10:30 a.m. when he saw Barney and his handler. After getting permission to pet the dog, Decker said Barney snapped and chomped down on his right index finger and broke the skin.

The President George W. Bush and Spot walk across the South Lawn following the President
I had no idea President Bush had a springer (what appears to be a field springer, no less). I’ve seen the Christmas video with the hilarious “Barney-Cam” but did not realize W owned a springer. “Spot” was named after former Texas Rangers ballplayer Scott Fletcher and passed away in February 2004.
Spot arrives at Camp David with the President aboard Marine One, Dec. 26, 2001.
Check out Spot’s bio and photo page.
Very cool, indeed.
