Mitt Romney has reacted to the story that he illegally transported his large dog in a carrier on the roof of his car for 12 hour trips in the 1980s, including one from Boston to Ontario. He says the dog liked it:
“He scrambled up there every time we went on trips, got in all by himself and enjoyed it,” Romney said of the Irish Setter.
And, anyway, the entire controversy is PETA’s fault because they criticized him:
“PETA has not been my fan over the years. PETA was after me for having a rodeo at the Olympics,” he said in reference to his role as chief executive of the 2002 Winter Games in Salt Lake City, Utah. “PETA was unhappy when I went quail hunting in Georgia, and they’re not happy that my dog likes fresh air.”
This dumbass is one sick puppy.
So this is Mitt’s My Dog Ate My Homework excuse for his behavior.
Only a conservative would blame the dog for the acts of the owner.
Typical Republican- now they’re defending “caging” as a good thing.We need a senate investigation! Subpoena Mutt Romney!
“My dog likes it, so we did it”. is no excuse for dog cruelty. My dog will eat herself into a coma, she likes it, but I consider it cruel to allow a dog to become obese because she likes it.
Dogs eat garbage because they like it, but feeding your dog trash is abuse.
My Golden will chase a thrown ball if it is thrown, even with bloody nubs for feet. I don’t do that because I am a responsible adult and understand that although my dog likes it, it is wrong.
Well, it’s official–Romney has proven himself dumb enough to succeed Bush as President. He’ll tell us “But our soldiers LIKE being shot at.”

Please let Mitt ride on the top of a car for 12 hours. What an ass! He is too despicable for words. I’m letting everyone know about this and I have a close friend who is a groomer and pet rescuer. She has a huge network of people. Keep talking Mitt, you’re doing a heck of a job. One more heinous Repub!!
