Mitt Romney on strapping dog to roof of car - YouTube

Seamus, the Romney family dog who was strapped to the roof of the Romney's station wagon for 12-hour drive up to Canada. Yes, you read that right: Mitt Romney placed the family dog in a car carrier and strapped him onto the roof of his car. For twelve hours. On the highway. You'll forgive the dog for having dirtied the windows of the car with a bout of diarrhea. Wouldn't you be scared if you were put all alone into a box strapped atop a car going 60 or 70 miles per hour?

Now that Democrats have made brought this up in the campaign, I'm curious to see how the Republican establishment will defend Romney's decision. Maybe they'll accuse Democrats of being Communists for raising questions about Romney's treatment of his dog. Or perhaps they'll fall back on Freedom with a capital "F" and defend the Tenth Amendment right to carry your dog wherever you damn well please. But one thing I'm sure of: They won't defend Romney's judgment. Because on this, there really is no defense.

And in other news, the Challenger exploded in mid-air, and some Arabic guys hijacked airplanes and crashed them into buildings in NYC & DC.

Tells you a lot about his judgement process though. That is one of the dumbest things I've ever heard of. Up there with Michael Jackson hanging a baby over a railing for the cameras.

We're talking about character judgement. If Mitt Romney will strap his dog to the roof of his car for 12 hours, What kind of leader is he?

I am surprised he didn't hitch up the dog and have him pull the car.

Given his actions as part of Bain Capital I believe he will just sell the country short to his immense profit.

Clark Griswold strapped his dead aunt to the roof of the family truckster. But he wasn't running for president at the time
