Romney's Dog

You've heard this, right:

Romney placed his family dog, an Irish setter named Seamus, into a kennel lashed to the top of his station wagon for a 12-hour family trip from Boston to Ontario in 1983. Despite being shielded by a wind screen the former Massachusetts governor erected, Seamus expressed his discomfort with a diarrhea attack.


Okay -- I wasn't going to touch this one as it happend so long ago. But Romney is defending it today:

"He scrambled up there every time we went on trips," Romney said at a campaign stop in Pittsburgh Thursday. "He got it all by himself and enjoyed it."

Enjoyed it so much he shit himself. And according to one account I read the Gov put the dog back up there after he hosed him off and continued on his way.

How does someone get elected Governor in Massachussets after abusing an Irish Setter?

(That's not Seamus in the pic, just a generic Irish Setter)

Perhaps instead of Mitt traveling in a luxurious limosine to and from work, he should be placed in a kennel atop an SUV. People who abuse animals are scum.
