    My nephew got a stuffed dragon for his baptism and we named it Barack. It's the cool thing to do.

    Aw. Lil babie elephant. Want to squish him and sing nursery rhymes to him. And then steal him from the evil circus when no one is looking. Think anyone'll notice if he's under my shirt? What about if I'm whistling and nonchalantly looking up at the sky?

    Why does the linked article have a picture of Obama? He is good-looking and all but baby animals are obviously the cutest.

    The far right will find plenty to complain about here:


    1. This celebrates teen pregnancy. The elephant is only 14! Won't somebody think of the children!


    2. It is an ASIAN elephant. Clearly it is not eligible to be president. Who cares that it was born on American soil?


    3. Barak is a 250 lb newborn. Childhood obesity is out of control!


    4. The elephant had multiple partners neither of whom were her husband. You are making baby Jesus cry!


    5. They used artificial insemination. If God wanted Bonnie to have a baby she would have conceived naturally.


    And so on.

    ShePop is already speculating on when Bonnie will lose the baby weight and get her ears pinned back.

    @sarah.of.a.lesser.god (now with more ovumlord!): It wouldn't hurt. I mean if male elephants don't want to fuck her by three days after the birth then she's doing something wrong in my opinion.

    The Ringling Bros. has a center for elephant conservation? I think they meant "captivity" or "conscription."
