Politics: Condoleezza Rice isn't the only loyal Administration lap dog returning

Barney, the President's Scottish Terrier will be returning to post as White House dog. Many feel Barney should be answering questions about disastrous first term decisions and his role in formulating the Iraqi invasion. Answers to those questions are unlikely. Jeff Gannon is apparently not the only Bush ally ready to lob softball questions:

Mollie from Purdue asks: My dog, Percy, and I are thrilled that you will be in the White House another four years! As First Dog, you are an exemplary role model for all American dogs. What are your plans for this next term?

Barney's Reply: Bark, Bark, Woof.

Can you get any more softball than that?
