What Romney Should Say About Seamus
One of Mitt’s supporters is sick of hearing about the dog — and suggests some rhetoric.
A Romney supporter emails BuzzFeed the following suggested response to the media’s fixation on with Mitt Romney’s decision, in 1983, to strap the family’s Irish Setter to the roof for the duration of a road trip:

Subject: what Romney should say about Seamusbut is too nice a guy,
Have any of you fuckheads ever tried taking a long car trip in a station wagon with five boys and a friggin’ dog? Most of you are too selfish to have procreated and therefore have no clue what a long car trip with kids is all about. Let me fill you in, it sucks. I’m a big guy but even my arms aren’t long enough to reach into the back seat, smack the boys around, and drive at the same time. The fighting, the are we there yets, the I gotta to the bathrooms, but you just went, I know dad, but I gotta go again, one’s carsick, the other is hungry, and Josh is giving truck drivers the finger. Hell, I wanted to put Tagg on the roof one trip, but Ann wouldn’t let me. Put a dog into that mix, you gotta be kidding me.
So far all of you giving me grief, know just one thing, I loved that dog, hell, he was the only friend I had on those trips. But it just didn’t work with Seamus in the back with the boys.
So if Gail, MoDo, and maybe even that great theologian Charles Blow want to give up one of their Hampton weekends this summer, I’ll round up five teenage boys, a dog, a station wagon, and they can schlep the five teenage boys, with dog, from Boston to Canada. I’ll even pay the Obama gas prices for them. Once they make the trip, they can then sit in judgment of me and Seamus. Till then, button it.

DwayneSPB a year agoWhy are people acting like the dog wasn’t in a kennel on the roof? Last time I checked dogs ride in beds of trucks all the time and when in a car cabin they prefer to hang out of an open window. Get off it.. It’s the stupidest and least effective argument against Romney out there.

Dennis Fanning a year agoIf you have two adults and five kids and it is such a burden, why the fuck are you bringing along a dog? If his comfort doesn’t matter enough not to strap him to the roof, then what would it have mattered to leave him at home with someone stopping by to give him some kibble?
