Children Disgusted By President Obama's Poop Jokes

Answering questions Friday from youngsters at an elementary school, Obama described going for nighttime walks with first dog Bo on the White House South Lawn. He says that's fun. But, Obama says, "Sometimes I have to scoop up his poop, because I don't want to just leave it in the lawn!"

The response from the kids: "Eeeewww!"

Obama admonished them: "If you guys have a dog, you've got to walk your dog, too — and clean up after him."

Just proselytizing the cult, or pandering to small children's fascination with excrement? Number two. [ AP via Wonkette operative "Monsieur Grumpe" ]
