Barack Obama, or his ghost writer, wrote about eating dog seventeen years ago, in 1005. Yet liberals were gleefully running with the Mitt Romney put his dog on the roof of the family car for months. I assume based on talking points from the White House. Now if Obama were a smart man, or had actually read the book “Dreams of My Father” which bears his name as author, he would not have gone near the subject of the Romney family dog.
One inquiring mind, British of course, wants to know why the lams stream press was is so lame, from Tim Stanley, Telegraph( [1]UK):
We all know the story of how Mitt Romney took his dog for a ride on top of his car. The Romneys were driving up to Canada for a family holiday, so they stored Seamus in a crate on the car roof. Understandably nervous, the poor pooch lost bowel control on the freeway and Mitt had to pull over and wash it all off with a hosepipe. Golly, I’ve written and read that story so many times I almost feel like I was there. You can buy t-shirts with slogans like “Mutts Against Mitt” and “Dogs Against Romney.” Whether Mitt wins this election or not, he’ll always be known as The Guy with a Dog on the Roof of his Car. Within fifty years “Romneyphobia” will become the technical term for a fear of low tunnels.
The saga of Seamus is one of a number of negative stories that have bedeviled the candidate throughout the race – heavily promoted by the White House. It’s often been used by the mainstream media to confirm his “weirdo factor” and the impression that he just “doesn’t get ordinary people.” Hands up: I’ve used it many times myself. But on Tuesday an equally bizarre story broke that deserves just as much airtime – and I don’t know why it has taken so long to get some. For while Romney may have terrified a dog into soiling itself, Barack Obama has gone one step further. He’s actually eaten one.
It appears that liberals have little curiosity into anything beyond their talking points.
Did Obama even bother to proof read his ghost writer’s manuscript, or did (does) he believe that American voters would find dog eating charming?
