Dogs Against Romney

Well, look what just arrived in the inboxes of people on the DSCC's fundraising email list:

Jed,

I never thought I’d say this, but I agree with Newt Gingrich. Mitt Romney would be a terrible president.

Mitt Romney. Who likes “being able to fire people.” Who said “corporations are people.” Who laid off thousands and shipped jobs overseas. Who forced the family dog to ride on the car roof for a 12-hour drive!

[...]

In case you do not know what he's referring to, I direct you to definitely the sad story of Seamus, the Romney family dog who had been strapped to the roof from the Romney's station truck for 12-hour drive as much as Canada. Yes, a person read that correct: Mitt Romney placed the household dog in an automobile carrier and buckled him onto the actual roof of their car. For 12 hours. On the actual highway. You'll forgive your dog for having dirtied the windows from the car with the bout of diarrhea. Wouldn't you panic shitless if you had been put all alone right into a box strapped atop an automobile going 60 or even 70 miles each hour?

Now that Democrats possess made brought this up within the campaign, I'm curious to determine how the Republican business will defend Romney's choice. Maybe they'll accuse Democrats to be Communists for increasing questions about Romney's remedy of his canine. Or perhaps they will fall back on Freedom having a capital "F" as well as defend the Tenth Amendment to carry your canine wherever you darn well please. But something I'm sure associated with: They won't protect Romney's judgment. Because about this, there really isn't any defense.
