That was normal for them, they did it often, and their was a wind screen in front of the kennel. The dog wasn't sick and then put on the roof because it was sick. The dog didn't become sick from being on the roof. It rode on the roof many times without being sick. But reasonable people might disagree about how to treat their dog.
What is not reasonable is running at least 40 articles on it in the NYT. Not reasonable to exaggerate the story decades later for political purposes. Not reasonable to not get the story straight.
In sane parts of the country, dogs ride in the bed of pick up and like it.
Yes, Romney did put up a wind screen to help keep the dog from huge winds while they drove.
I will forever think that dog lovers would not do this. In my lifetime I have owned over 20 dogs. NONE OF THEM WOULD WANT TO BE ON THE ROOF OF A CAR WHILE IT’S RIDING!
I am not going to argue this anymore.
I think it says volumes about Romney. Why didn’t he just admit it was a dumb thing to do?
As for the dog being sick BEFORE the ride, from a turkey dinner as they say....hey, I got a bridge to sell anyone believes this....cheap. Does anyone really believe that the dog would have pooped that turkey while running around the house?
Heh.
Yeah, it was overkill for a kind of silly story.
If only Romney would have just said he made a mistake. Instead he and his wife laughed like a hyena.
I’m done.
Believe what you will.
