Seamus travelled on the roof lots of times. When he saw that crate going up there, he'd 'go crazy' with anticipation. 'Joy, oh joy, another vacation, woof!'
Dog Seamus ‘Loved’ Trips Atop Family Car, Says Ann Romney
Seamus, Mitt Romney’s Irish setter who traveled with his young family strapped to the roof of their station wagon, “loved” those trips, despite once getting ill, Ann Romney told ABC’s Diane Sawyer in an exclusive interview....
“The dog loved it,” Ann Romney said. “He would see that crate and, you know, he would, like, go crazy because he was going with us on vacation. It was to me a kinder thing to bring him along than to leave him in the kennel for two weeks.”
“Once, he — we traveled all the time — and he ate the turkey on the counter. I mean, he had the runs,” Ann Romney said, laughing as she explained how the dog got diarrhea.

So the Seamus was on the roof, for lots of trips, and that one time he 'got the runs' he'd been eating too much turkey! Yes, it's still LOL funny all these year later. It was for his own good - 'a kinder thing to bring him along' than having Seamus looked after at home, or getting him lodgings.
I'm starting to think Mitt and Ann WERE made for each other, for eternity.
just your average family :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D

Obama as a Boy Ate Dog Meat
ABC NEWS ^ | 4/17/2012 | Jake Tappert

Much has been made about Mitt Romney, in 1983, putting his family dog Seamus in a kennel on top of his roof and driving from Boston to Canada, with said canine Seamus making his displeasure known in a rather scatological way.
Democrats have signaled they have every intention of making sure the American people — especially dog-lovers — know the tale. In January, senior Obama campaign strategist David Axelrod tweeted a photo of the president and Bo in a car, with the snide observation: “@davidaxelrod: How loving owners transport their dogs.”
The Romney campaign signaled tonight that they are not about to cede any ground when it comes to a candidate’s odd past with man’s best friend.
And the Obama campaign shot back, with a spokesman suggesting the Romney team was attacking a child, since the Obama act in question took place when he was a kid.
The Daily Caller noted that in President Obama’s best-selling memoir, “Dreams from My Father: A Story of Race and Inheritance,” the president recalls being fed dog meat as a young boy in Indonesia with his stepfather, Lolo Soetoro.
“With Lolo, I learned how to eat small green chill peppers raw with dinner (plenty of rice), and, away from the dinner table, I was introduced to dog meat (tough), snake meat (tougher), and roasted grasshopper (crunchy),” the president wrote. “Like many Indonesians, Lolo followed a brand of Islam that could make room for the remnants of more ancient animist and Hindu faiths. He explained that a man took on the powers of whatever he ate: One day soon, he promised, he would bring home a piece of tiger meat for us to share.”
After his mother married Soetoro, Obama lived in Indonesia from 1967 until 1971, from roughly the age of 6 through 10.

Wow...

Who cares? I see far worse shit than a dog riding on top of a car every day here in Thailand. I put my dog on the foot rest of my bike when I go out, he fucking loves it.
-
The whole dog on the roof thing kinda irks me too.
I think in some cases having a lot of money can go to your head and make you kind of oblivious to things that you shouldn't be oblivious to.
-
it's not a big deal until you watch that video of the dog in there. loud and bumpy.
i dont care if my prez is a dick and abusive, if he can fix the nation. it sucks, but people who work at walmart kick their dogs and I sitll shop there.

Romney straps dogs to the hoods of his cars while Obama straps bombs to planes to secure oil for bankrupt England and France.
-
Personally, I think this story may actually help Romney. No serious person believes he did anything wrong. Its not like the dog died or anything. But the store helps personalize him.

Only sheeple like 240 and Simple Jack (Blacken) would base their vote for president on a family vacation story from 25 years ago.

Could be worse, Simple Jack. They could have eaten him like Obama would have 35 years ago. :D :D :D :D
For those of us with GEDs (read: not you), this is a non-story.
This whole "story" is a testament to how deep in the hole the far-leftists know they are. If this is all they got then they might as well pack their bags now and leave.

Obama ate dogs as a kid

Why talk about pesky things like OBAMA'S RECORD!? Romney's dog from nearly 30 years ago is far more important.

Obama’s dog days (Democrats pay for barking up the wrong tree)
The Washington Times ^ | Wednesday, April 18, 2012 | The Washington Times
Posted on April 19, 2012 8:52:11 PM EDT by DBeers
The 2012 presidential campaign has become a dog-eat-dog contest. For months, Obama campaign operatives sought to make an issue of Mitt Romney carrying his Irish setter Seamus in a rooftop dog carrier during a family vacation in 1983. Some major media outlets picked up the non-story, and the Obama campaign buttressed it with an endless series of snarky tweets and barbs. The liberals are chasing their tails with this tale.
On Tuesday, the Daily Caller’s Jim Treacher juxtaposed the Seamus story with a passage from President Obama’s book “Dreams From My Father: A Story of Race and Inheritance,” in which he describes eating dog meat while growing up in Indonesia. The message Democrats were trying to establish was that Mr. Obama was kinder to dogs. The book snippet supplied the rejoinder: At least Mr. Romney never ate one.
On its face, the dog-eating anecdote is just as much a non-story as the adventures of Seamus. But it exploded over social media and Twitter, and within hours, even mainstream-media news hounds picked it up. Man bites dog is always news. It’s the kind of story that lingers, a humorous situation that lends itself to endless one-liners. (“Why are there no more Blue Dog Democrats? Obama ate them.”)
The Obama campaign is struggling to come up with a strong response, but nothing seems to stick. It can say the dog-eating took place when Mr. Obama was a child, that it was in a different culture or that the first family has not prepared dog in the White House. However, it cannot escape the ick factor, which will hound it until November. Now the Obama campaign will have to call off the dogs on Mr. Romney. Bo, the White House pooch, will have to retreat to an undisclosed doghouse until Election Day.
