Politico is reporting that Barney the Scottie, President Bush’s canine companion, finally snapped and bit a White House reporter today.
Reporters haven’t decided whether Barney was fed up with liberal media bias, depressed by how history is likely to rate his tenure, or was simply enjoying the sense of freedom that comes to any short-timer.
The victim was Reuters TV correspondent Jon Decker, who’d bent down to pet the dog. Damage was limited to a broken skin on a finger.
Politico quotes Decker:
“As a result of the bleeding, I was treated by White House physician Dr. Richard Tubb,” Decker tells us. And, “Am now on antibiotics and will be getting a tetanus shot administered by Dr. Tubb tomorrow,” he says.
Rumors that Barney has contacted Scooter Libby for the name of a good attorney are totally unfounded.
