Exclusive: Bo Obama Agrees with President on ‘Deem and Pass’

At yesterday’s White House briefing, the hot topic du jour was the House Democrats’ procedural “Deem and Pass” maneuver, also known as “Demon Pass,” the “Slaughter Rule,” and if I’m not mistaken, the “Cider House Rule?”  I’m not sure about that last one.

All this after Fox News’ Brett Baier spent a good chunk of his POTUS exclusive grilling President Obama on whether he supports the maneuver. Just to be thorough, I took a shot at the question with First Dog Bo Obama. Not surprisingly, he agreed with the President.

Here’s my brief interview with Bo.

Obviously, Bo doesn’t care about “Demon Pass.” After a week of grilling Robert Gibbs and President Obama about it, it should be obvious that they don’t care about it, either. It would be like asking them, “Do you support stir-fry or saute´?” Gibbs and Obama are saying “Just get the food on the plate.”

That might not be the answer most people want to hear, but it’s the one they’ve been giving all week. If I had to guess, I’d say that Obama and Gibbs probably have the same view of the House Dems’ attempt to insulate themselves from GOP attacks in the midterms: it’s stupid, it won’t make a difference, and who cares? The net effect is the same either way.
