The 1-year-old puppy tried to escape her handler, knocking down 2-year-old Ashtyn Gardner in the process.
The little girl got up quickly, and her dad, John, said she was fine.
Michelle Obama was present and helped Ashytn to her feet. The first lady later checked on the little girl again and gave her a hug.
Obama was unveiling the 2013 holiday decorations and had invited military families and their children to see them.
John Gardner, a member of the Navy from Mobile, Ala., was there with his wife and three kids.
The children were decorating ornaments, making Rudolf reindeers out of lunch bags and fashioning paper poinsettias when the incident occurred.
Both dogs stayed in the room and there were no further accidents.
2-year-old Ashtyn Gardner was knocked down by Obama’s dog during a White House propaganda session. Obama’s dogs are cute. But apparently they are being trained to attack little white kids. One of the dogs knocked over a toddle today during a Michelle Obama propaganda session. I guess this is why Obama demands to control White House photo sessions.

You know, I never knew how and why the baby boomers, GenXers etc. came to be named as such.

I think it may explain the dissonance between say, my mom's generation and my niece's, and how we may misunderstand each other sometimes.

Trust me I understand - my mom does not get the snark of Gen X, she thinks I'm being mean to her when all I'm doing is joking around.
But I do get pissed we seem to be a lost generation since all anyone talks about are the boomer or the millennials and all the pressure is being put on us - the smaller of the 3 gens.

I keep hearing about how millennial's can't get jobs because of the economy and I find i interesting that G-X people have seen much of their savings lost (the recession etc.). These are the same people trying to care for their parents and make sure their children get a decent education with the hopes of finding a career of their choice.
Make no mistake, my words are deliberate.
I'm not trying to feed into class/generational warfare here. Truth be told, the upper class doesn't have to worry about generational separation, IMO.
The middle and lower class does.

I can see that.
Oh mom's got her own job (in the same company I'm at) and can't retire because we won't survive on my salary and just her SS. There's just no way, which is sad.
You're right the truly upper classes don't have to worry about it - their parents are retiring their kids don't have to worry too much about work.
There is class warfare going on just people are too busy fighting over towels at walmart to see it and those who do are too scared of losing their jobs to try to do anything about it.
