Seamus 'Loved' Trips Atop Family Car, Says Ann Romney

Seamus 'Loved' Trips Atop Family Car, Says Ann Romney (http://news.yahoo.com/dog-seamus-loved-trips-atop-family-car-says-230153730--abc-news-politics.html)
By Russell Goldman | ABC OTUS News – 12 hrs ago

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.

Seamus' 1983 trip from Boston to a summer cottage in Ontario, Canada, inside a dog carrier lashed atop the family's Chevrolet, has become a regular barb in Romney's side and is routinely used by his critics to paint him as uncaring.

Mitt Romney told Sawyer that the Seamus attacks were the most wounding of the campaign "so far," but Anne Romney insisted the dog loved traveling that way and looked forward to trips.

"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."

Adding to the left's narrative that Romney had little compassion for the animal is a detail from the 1983 trip that Ann Romney confirmed to Sawyer. The dog became sick, defecating all over itself and the windshield of the car, leading Romney to hose them both off before they continued on the drive to Canada.

"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.

In a 2007 blog written during Romney's first campaign for the presidency, Ann Romney said the dog rode "in an enclosed kennel, not in the open air" and compared the experience with a person riding on a motorcycle or roller coaster.

great thread slug...

Good thing you are jumping on other people for cutting and pasting worthless info.

I don't care much for Romney but if this is all that's coming out after two campaigns you got to believe this guy is pretty clean.

Mitt Romney’s latest canine controversy involves his bundler Fred Malek who was arrested over 50 years ago in conjunction with an incident where a dog was killed and barbecued in an Illinois park. Mr. Malek is hosting a fundraiser for the Romney campaign on Monday in honor of Ann Romney’s birthday. Dogs Against Romney, the stealth PAC backed group dedicated to dogging Mr. Romney about the 1983 incident where he put his Irish Setter on the roof of his car, sent a press release this morning pointing out Mr. Romney’s upcoming fundraiser is hosted by “fellow animal abuser Fred Malek.”

[Smiling Assassin27]

Seamus was fine. Of course, Obama's re-enactment of Chevy Chase's signature move from Vacation has made Americans worse off than Seamus:

If this is the best you can dig up, your in deeper trouble than I thought....

[Garcia Bronco]

So they had the dog in a crate, or they load strapped the dog to the roof. The latter sounds almost impossible.

[alkemical]

I'm sure that it wouldn't be hard to google "mitt romney corruption" and find some dirt.

I was thinking much the same thing..

I have a Weimaraner and if I so much as go near the front door holding my car keys she goes nuts..

as she takes up the entire back seat not much AC gets back there she loves to smell the outdoors with the windows open..

Since she gets about 50% of here sensory input through her nose she gets the side windows partially down on the Volvo and the rear windows all the way down on the mustang convertible.

Used to think it was bad for the dog to allow this, but smell is her thing..

Now allowing a dog to be loose in the back of a pickup IMO is a no no.. To easy for one to get thrown out of the bed..

I'm guessing that their setter is happy as a clam in the crate on the roof. getting all those smells of the country side..

[Smiling Assassin27]

Seamus is a pu$$y.

Maybe Mitt can "lash" his wife on top of the car and tour the country, eating bugs at 70 mph since she thinks that's such a great idea.

If I mention ride or touch my keys, my dogs go crazy too but I don't tie them to the roof of the truck. I have a "Colorado" topper and a padded Bedrug liner in my truck. I'll admit it's not the safest way to transport them but they are too large to fit in the cab which still isn't that safe.

It's just common sense you don't treat your animals like that, but that family obviously is lacking what 99% of what everyone else has.
In most states she could be fined and or jailed for doing that to her dog.

Your acting like they put him on a leash and staked him to teh roof of the car..

MOST traveling dog kenels I have seen have plenty of protection from the elements wind, rain and bugs..

Most have grilles to allow airflow, whihc most likely were covered on the front side..

BTW most Setters I have seen are long haired and built to be outside..



Sorry I see nothing wrong with what they did to keep the family together..

[Rohirrim]

It was only a matter of time before the rightards came up with the idea that tying your dog to the roof of your car and driving a 1,000 miles down the freeway is actually a good idea. :rofl:

If Romney was a Democrat he could be smoking a joint and could have his racist preacher duct taped on the hood of his stolen minivan with a bullhorn , who would then shout obscenities toward other drivers on the rottenness of America while blasting down I70 at 110 miles per hour – and all we would ever hear from the “mainstream” news are crickets chirping…softly: no big deal, no big deal….

If wishes were horses, beggars would ride.

If, if, if...

If any of you rightards had a shred of pride or decency left, you would stand up to the propaganda of your party and have the guts to simply say, "Putting a dog in a box, strapping it to the roof of your car, and driving a thousand miles on a freeway is a bad thing to do. It is animal cruelty." But you don't, and you won't, and that's the problem. Whatever your party tells you to say, you will regurgitate on cue.

I am pointing to the double standard, but unlike LA I can say something bad about "my guy". Strapping a dog on the roof a car is a bad thing -- if my kid did it he would get an ear full. I think it is more than a bad thing -- its boardering moronic.

[Bob]

maybe one point conservatives are making is -- Romneys actions are lame toward a dog but with Obama they are destructive to an entire nation...there might be a slight difference in scope and scale.

Horse****. Nothing but propaganda. As far as real policy goes, Obama is nothing more than a moderate Republican. His policies have pretty much mirrored Bush's policies right out of the gate.

The right wing has gone hysterical on Obama. And it's pretty clear why.

[Arkie]

This video makes some good points like having to endure 120 dBs for 12 hours, but they didn't mention the effects of putting the wet dog back on top going 70 mph.

My dog would constantly want to ride in the back of my truck no matter what the speed or the weather. This is such a non issue but it shows that the election is on. What is funny is this is like beating a dead dog, because this story is old old old. Not a lot different then bringing up Obama's coke snorting. You people realize you can go to prison for having coke right, had he been busted he wouldn't be President right now. Far worst the how Obama transported a dog.

Its great for Obama because he has Air Force one, but thousand of dogs get stuck in the bowels of airplanes for transport. If that isn't illegal I don't see how this would be. As long as dog in a Kennel I bet its not much different from being in the bed of a truck.

[cutthemdown]

Oh and i like how in that video the kennel looks like its about ready to fall off. Yeah just like Romney. How about a demonstration of how Obama used to snort cocaine.

Not much difference between in a Kennel on the roof, and in the bed of your truck. In fact the Kennel probably safer for the animal. Now if you bought a cab then fine, but otherwise......

Of course the part you're leaving out is where the dog **** all over the car, Romney hosed him down, and then continued down the freeway at 70 miles an hour with a wet dog on top of his car.

Keep coming up with excuses. It just makes you look pathetic.

[cutthemdown]

Should i get my video camera, a friends truck, my DB meter and see how much better it is in the bed of a truck on the freeway lol! I'm too lazy to do it but I bet it would also be loud.

Sorry but what is pathetic is making this an issue out of this. If this is all the left has I think Romney may have a shot. I thought he didn't a few months ago, but maybe.

They should start pressing Obama for exactly how many times he snorted coke. Oh yeah it's going to be a great election of the real issues.

[cutthemdown]

The dog was in a Kennel. Not much different then if Kennel in the bed of a truck. The one end of a kennel usually closed to the wind.

If they strapped a dog on top of the car in no kennel then I would be upset like all of you. I'm not saying it was best way to transport a pet. I wouldn't do it. But I also would not dangerously put my dog in the bed of a pickup truck either. My dogdie has a harness, sits in the back seat with the harness hooked to the seatbelts. But i have no kids, if i had a bunch of kids also it would make it tough.

Maybe if you want to judge the man do it by how he has looked after his family. Smearing him over this is childish and ridiculous. It makes for good interent fodder and that is about it.

You're just parroting the right wing talking points. Again. Character issues are ALWAYS major issues in a presidential campaign. Romney has already wounded himself with women and hispanics. During the entire primary he has been unable to shake the perception that he is a cold fish who just finds it impossible to communicate with the average, working man in America. This whole dog story just encapsulates and highlights who he really is.

[cutthemdown]

No it shows you what you want to believe.

[cutthemdown]

The truest indicator of character can be found in how a man treats his wife and kids. Both Obama and Romney seem to be good enough men to be President. You never really know whats in a mans heart though. I'm single, I'm selfish, i wouldn't vote for a President who wasn't married with kids lol!

I will focus on more important issues.

[orinjkrush]

Have Aliens Been Breeding With Our Political Class? (http://www.veteranstoday.com/2012/01/15/mitt-romney-alien-or-psychopath/)

The weight of the evidence suggests that human-alien hybrids are among us. That explains Mitt Romney. He's smooth, suave, handsome – like he was cast in plastic, rather than nurtured in a human uterus. There’s something inhuman in his voice and facial expressions and the way he moves and handles himself. He reminds me of the androids in Disney World’s Hall of Presidents. If I were asked to distinguish between Romney and a walking, talking android simulacrum of Romney, I would pick the one with more gravitas. That would definitely be the android.

Is Romney a plastic shell, operated in real time by a gray alien equivalent of Karl Rove? Possibly. But it seems far more likely that he is, like Ted Bundy, an inhuman human: one of the 2% of males who are clinical psychopaths.

According to psychopathy expert Martha Stout, psychopaths often give themselves away by mistreating their pets. Not necessarily in an aggressive or outlandish fashion; they just fail to exhibit the kind of care that someone with a heart would take for granted. Romney’s treatment of his dog would appear to be a classic example.

[cutthemdown]

So now Romney is a sociopath.

They abused the dog by taking it on vacation.. Instead of in a kennel, the last time I did that my St Bernard died of a broken heart he missed the family that much....

Yeah. I read that. When he was a child in Indonesia somebody gave him a taste of dog. He wrote that it was too tough. I ate some dog in Korea, when I was in the army. Didn't like it. Obama's right. It was too tough. I like beef. And chicken. And pork. Still, I wouldn't strap any of those animals to the roof of my car, wet, and drive a thousand miles either.

Most dogs love riding in the open back of a pickup. I never really had a pickup for my old dog to ride in, but if you cracked the window, she loved sticking her face out into the wind.

In hindsight, I guess some of these dog tasters would've wanted to issue a citation and demand I buy a 5-point backseat dog harness.

My two dogs also love to stick their heads out of the window driving around town. But not on the freeway going 70. I wouldn't let them do that. And I doubt either one of them would be happy if I put them in a kennel, hosed them down, strapped the box to the roof of the car, and then took off down the freeway at 70 MPH for hour after hour.

Keep trying to pretend this **** isn't cruel and unusual punishment, rightards. I've got all day. :puff:

Who says he was going 70? Who even said this dog carrier had a front opening that faced forward, uncovered? You girls like to assume a lot.

You can't tell when your dogs like or hate something?

You don't know dogs. You don't know what torture is. You do know how to make yourself look like an idiot.

Motorcycling is basically like waterboarding. Only with air. Hadn't you heard?

Uhh, let me take a guess: When dogs are happy, they smile and wag their tails? Do I win?

Seriously, though. This is the part of the argument where you have failed miserably, but just don't know when to stop and are willing to go on failing for page after page. Enjoy.

I know that when I get the hose out in the back yard the "Supposed water dog " Weimaraner takes off to the opposite end of the yard..

and when the keys come out of my pocket and I'm near the front door I have to fight her for who goes out first..

If their dog jumped into the kennel when he saw them getting ready to go on vacation, I'm putting my money on he liked it..

but then I guess they should have consulted our resident dog whisperer before making the trip.. to see if he liked travelling like that..

SO many know it all activist morons..

Exactly. It is very easy to tell what your dog does, or doesn't, like. The supposed doggy defenders don't seem to know the first thing about dogs. Dogs are much smarter than some are giving them credit for. They know what is going on.

But it also does not mean you're abusing your dog..

IMO Unless they are heavily sedated, anyone that puts a dog in the belly of a plane is an abuser..

now the real question is are the morons that think taking your dog on vacation V. kenneling them which is abuse..

Maybe you can tell us what the Romney pet was thinking when it sh*t itself on their international trip, strapped on top of their vehicle going 70 mph?

[Arkie]

So all truck beds are covered, and everyone has foam padding? I see dogs riding in uncovered truck beds all the time. The law doesn't seem to care.

It's illegal in some states, and thousands of dogs get killed every year riding in the back.

RIF

"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.

Again RIF..

the dog did what dogs do ate something he got his paws on and got sick..

no brain surgery there.. and I suspect the dog felt better because he was not laying and covered in fecal matter..and the car was greener after getting hosed down.. less wind resistance..

Hilarious!Hilarious!

Air tight. Funny. You want to spare the dog a motorcycle style ride just to suffocate him.

Then I guess slather him in bbq sauce, fill his chest cavity with butter and rotisserie the little guy. But very slowly because that meat's a little tough from what I've heard. :)

From what I read they fashioned some kind of wind shield for it. Making it functionally no different than a pickup.

[Arkie]

Romney said it was completely airtight.

[Bob]

Yeah, the rightard media machine rode that horse until it was a stinking carcass. Most of the people of America saw it for what it was, a low class smear job by association, and ignored it. This story is not association. This is Romney being Romney, abusing the weak with almost sociopathic indifference.

really? I know you want your guy to win, but this is a pretty silly line.

[Bob]

Obama probably still snorts coke. We should make Presidential nominees have a drug test. I think Obama still doing them. Sometimes he looks stoned to me.

Really? This is another pretty silly line too...

[Bob]

Have Aliens Been Breeding With Our Political Class? (http://www.veteranstoday.com/2012/01/15/mitt-romney-alien-or-psychopath/)

The weight of the evidence suggests that human-alien hybrids are among us. That explains Mitt Romney. He's smooth, suave, handsome – like he was cast in plastic, rather than nurtured in a human uterus. There’s something inhuman in his voice and facial expressions and the way he moves and handles himself. He reminds me of the androids in Disney World’s Hall of Presidents. If I were asked to distinguish between Romney and a walking, talking android simulacrum of Romney, I would pick the one with more gravitas. That would definitely be the android.

Is Romney a plastic shell, operated in real time by a gray alien equivalent of Karl Rove? Possibly. But it seems far more likely that he is, like Ted Bundy, an inhuman human: one of the 2% of males who are clinical psychopaths.

According to psychopathy expert Martha Stout, psychopaths often give themselves away by mistreating their pets. Not necessarily in an aggressive or outlandish fashion; they just fail to exhibit the kind of care that someone with a heart would take for granted. Romney’s treatment of his dog would appear to be a classic example.

This is embarrassingly stupid of you to assert – not because you believe it, because you likely don’t, but that there might be 1% (the protesters of capitalism) for example, who might think your post makes sense. Romney is guilty of being plastic – that’s all – and I would imagine if one is in the media’s crosshairs all of the time one would be inclined to become ever more plastic…

[Bob]

Again, I have to assert the obvious -- if this is what you have, that Romney is mentally deranged because of doggy travel-gate? You might have to make up something. How about you try asserting that Romney's wife has never worked because she only raised 5 good kids -- I think you should try hammering that one, it will appeal to the 1% as well.

[Arkie]

2% of males are psychopaths. I'm not saying Mitt is a psychopath, but he does share many of the characteristics.

[cutthemdown]

Really? This is another pretty silly line too...

LOL I was just being silly.

Just so everyone knows though dogs often get sick on road trips regardless of where you put them. My dog pukes with every car ride over an hour lol. She is getting older though and was much better at it in her younger days. I basically don't take her anywhere anymore, just let her kick it. She turns 15 in January 4th.

It's one thing to be in another country, seven years old, and some adult gives you a local dish to eat, and being an adult and engaging in animal cruelty. If you can't see the difference, it's because of rabid partisanship.

[L.A. BRONCOS FAN]

It was only a matter of time before the rightards came up with the idea that tying your dog to the roof of your car and driving a 1,000 miles down the freeway is actually a good idea. :rofl:

If they can defend all of Dubya's high crimes and misdemeanors, then this dog thing would have to be a piece of cake.

Sure, it's a little strange.

Then again, I think it was a little strange that back then, I had never worn a seat-belt, in my entire life. Today, I wouldn't drive down up the block without one.

Back then, toddlers would ride with their brothers and sisters in the back of trucks. Today, you wouldn't take an adult on such a ride, unless you wanted to get ticketed. You sure wouldn't take a toddler on a ride in a car unless she was in a carseat. Back then, carseats didn't exist. Things have changed.

I am an animal lover. My animals run my house. But I don't think this is a big deal. Would I do it? No. But think about a few other things:

Do you think it's inhumane to put your dog in an airplane? Is it okay to put them in their kennels, so that they can spend six or seven hours in a loud place, like a cargo hold?

Do you generally freak out when you see cows or horses being transported in the backs of trailers?

Would you feel the same level of outrage if you heard he had driven around farm and ranch land with a dog in the back of a truck?

First, let's keep it in context as something that happened in a totally different era. And second, let's keep it in context as something that is really pretty inconsequential, in the big scheme of things.

The Obama eating dog thing is similarly ridiculous.

The Obama eating dog thing is similarly ridiculous.

Great attempt, but none of those examples fit and there is no excuse. No, I wouldn't have put my dog in a box in the 80s or 70s and gone down the freeway at 70mph with him tied to the roof of my car, and then, when he **** all over my car, I wouldn't get out, hose him down, and continue on down the road another few hundred miles with my now wet dog tied to my roof.

I think it is an important fact because it speaks to the character of the candidate who is already felt to be aloof, disconnected, and cold. It's certainly no less relevant than the mountains of **** that have been thrown at Obama for three years.

We'll have to agree to disagree on this one. I think that if it shows anything negative, it's maybe a bit of ignorance towards how to care for the animal. I know enough about the Romney family (from first-hand experience, with some of the boys) to know that they are decent people.

And, for what it's worth, I agree with you about Obama. You won't find a single post on here where I've participated in some of the strange, petty stuff that gets tossed around about him.

[DomCasual]

And this is the kind of thing where I think intelligent people should take the high road. It has nothing to do with anything important. Just because some clown on the other side is willing to quickly run to the lowest common denominator, it doesn't mean you have to. Eventually, cooler heads are going to have to prevail.

Again, we might just agree to disagree.

[BroncoBeavis]

The Right wants us to think Romney's little dog story is a non-issue. The American Kennel Club doesn't think so:

When asked about today's Dogs Against Romney protest outside the Westminster Dog Show in New York City, American Kennel Club Spokesperson Lisa Peterson said she was aware of the Romney story.
"The AKC promotes responsible dog ownership [and] putting your dog in a crate for car travel is the first step toward responsible dog ownership," Peterson said. "The second step would be to put that crate in the car," she added.

The AKC represents millions of American dog owners.

Hilarious!
Sounds like a winning formula for the Democrats.

What would the AKC Club President think?

Hilarious!

Really, kids used to ride in the backs of pickups back in those days routinely. But you expected dogs to be given more consideration.

I like Romney because he has proven to be able to work with both sides on an issue. He flip flops a little too much, but that can be good. We don't want someone who won't change his mind or is too stubborn. He's just a way better organizer then Obama. Obamas whole admin been a train wreck of incompetence.

Not to mention when racial tensions flare in the country Obama instantly on the side of the blacks and panders to them, throws gasoline instead of water.

[cutthemdown]

There is only one way for Romney to come out good on doggygate. He will have to rebuild the doggy chamber, make it a bit bigger, bolt it to the top of his campaign bus, then go on a 12 hour ride on top of it city to city, stopping at dog shelters along the way and giving them money and doing a speech.

We will call it the apology to fido tour 2012. Sometimes along the way he can **** himself and then the crowd can hose him down.

For Obama it's easier he just has to promise he will tell his home country of Indonesia to stop forcing kids to eat dog.

[Bronco_Beerslug]

When he got elected gov he enacted several measures that closed loopholes for businesses on taxes. Biz called them tax increases and conservatives railed on him for it.

You asked for an issue i gave it to you. A President that can piss both sides off would be a good thing. At least he won't pander like Obama does.

This from a guy who said he won't even have relationships, or friendships with republicans. Yes you are a fount of tolerance and acceptance. Also you admitted that not once have you voted for a repub. I have voted for lots of dems proving I am way more in the middle then a far left wack job like yourself.

Oh also you forgot number 4.

[cutthemdown]

At least he doesn't outright lie like Obama does.

[peacepipe]

At least he doesn't outright lie like Obama does.actually he does lie.

[lonestar]

Sure, it's a little strange.

Then again, I think it was a little strange that back then, I had never worn a seat-belt, in my entire life. Today, I wouldn't drive down up the block without one.

Back then, toddlers would ride with their brothers and sisters in the back of trucks. Today, you wouldn't take an adult on such a ride, unless you wanted to get ticketed. You sure wouldn't take a toddler on a ride in a car unless she was in a carseat. Back then, carseats didn't exist. Things have changed.

I am an animal lover. My animals run my house. But I don't think this is a big deal. Would I do it? No. But think about a few other things:

Do you think it's inhumane to put your dog in an airplane? Is it okay to put them in their kennels, so that they can spend six or seven hours in a loud place, like a cargo hold?

Do you generally freak out when you see cows or horses being transported in the backs of trailers?

Would you feel the same level of outrage if you heard he had driven around farm and ranch land with a dog in the back of a truck?

Actually they did exsist and in some states mandatory to have an infnat in them..

But it was indeed ok for kids to be holding them in some states.. In fact it is still ok for parents to hold kids up to 2 years old on airplanes..

FWIW it was not like they were traveling from a southern state to Canada IIRC they lived in Detriot about that time.. and I know it is hard to believe for some but about that time the speed limit nation wide was 55. Not blasting away at 70 like most of y'all have subscribed to..

I'd guess that those trips were in the 2-3 hour range.. Hardly a big deal.. or at least as big a deal as you bleeding heart liberals claim it to be.

[cutthemdown]

Yeah he does lol.

Just when I thought I'd seen it all where false equivalencies were concerned, you come along and set the bar higher (or lower, as the case may be.)

L0L @ your spin on my refusal to consort with rethugs.

If I refused to consort with white collar criminals, would you consider that evidence of "intolerance" as well?

Same difference.

[L.A. BRONCOS FAN]

Let's see...

Reviewing the types of republicans:

1) Super-rich, self-absorbed, predatory capitalist a$$holes.
2) The religiously insane.
3) Uneducated, anti-intellectual, willfully-ignorant rednecks.
4) Racist, xenophobic, misogynist hate mongers.

You tell me: Who in his right mind wants to "pal around" with any of the above - unless he's a fellow republican? Ha!

If he lives in LA there are loads of other morons to cohort with..

I moved out of their 25 years ago when it was semi sliding into progressive thought now the entire state is wacko..

The only reason my son lives there is he can surf and ski on the same weekend.. That and he makes $300k a year..

I suspect he also will soon move away after being raped by state taxes like I was way back..

So liberal = little girls?

Some of you should be embarrassed. The fact that you aren't, says a lot about you. You probably get beat up by 7 year olds in the park. Man up...
