Q. Thierry, from Dunwoody, GA writes:

Can Barney see in color? I'm convinced my little pooch can see and enjoy the fall colors.

A. Jimmy Orr, White House Internet Director:
Jimmy Orr Hi Thierry,

I'm not a veterinarian, but I'd have to examine the evidence. First of all, look at photo for October 5 , Barney clearly has a royal flush (hearts). Clearly he had to tell the difference between black and red to put together this winning hand. Next, let's look at the July 28 photo. How is Barney going to put together attractive floral arrangements for this important event without the ability to see color? Finally, the June 8th photo. The caption says Barney looks at a Blue Jay. How would Barney know its blue if he can't see color? The evidence speaks for itself.
