While Sarah Palin chooses to spend her free time shooting animals from helicopters and trying to manipulate the endangered species list, Senator Barack Obama is out and about rescuing animals from shelters.
Earlier this year, rumors began circulating that the Obamas were planning to add a doggy addition to their family.
