Seamus travelled on the roof lots of times. When he saw that crate going up there, he'd 'go crazy' with anticipation. 'Joy, oh joy, another vacation, woof!'

Dog Seamus ‘Loved’ Trips Atop Family Car, Says Ann Romney

Seamus, Mitt Romney’s Irish setter who traveled with his young family strapped to the roof of their station wagon, “loved” those trips, despite once getting ill, Ann Romney told ABC’s Diane Sawyer in an exclusive interview....

“The dog loved it,” Ann Romney said. “He would see that crate and, you know, he would, like, go crazy because he was going with us on vacation. It was to me a kinder thing to bring him along than to leave him in the kennel for two weeks.”

“Once, he — we traveled all the time — and he ate the turkey on the counter. I mean, he had the runs,” Ann Romney said, laughing as she explained how the dog got diarrhea.

So the Seamus was on the roof, for lots of trips, and that one time he 'got the runs' he'd been eating too much turkey! Yes, it's still LOL funny all these year later. It was for his own good - 'a kinder thing to bring him along' than having Seamus looked after at home, or getting him lodgings.

I'm starting to think Mitt and Ann WERE made for each other, for eternity.

1. The woman Threw herself under the bus for her husband... That's loyality OR he "ENCOURAGED" her

2. Yes she laughed about it! Seamus 'got the runs' from eating

too much turkey - it's all OK now. Ha de ha ha ha.

9. Up until now...

I thought they only did it to the dog on one occasion - apparently it was many times - Thanks Ann

3. Ann R-money thinks diarrhea is funny. Ha ha ha ha ha.

18. I gave my dog a big pork roast bone once

don't ever do that. Diarrhea is NOT funny.

Neither is Romney.

If Seamus loved it so much, how come he ran away, never to be seen again???

4. And she can read Seamus' mind too!

She said that "Seamus looked forward to trips on the roof of the car!"

17. The more she speaks, the more ignorant she sounds.

5. Why would a dog enjoy being separated from the family in a small, cold, windy box?

[demgrrrll]

6. Beats me.

7. Wasn't this trip and actual "move" from Boston to Montreal or Toronto? nt

[catbyte]

8. Ugh.

[HopeHoops]

10. That explains why the dog ran away. There's a special dog kennel in Hell waiting for you Ann.

11. Timmy was trapped in a well

And Seamus went and jumped in with him rather than stay with the Romneys.

12. i say... put her and her husband on top of their car

let them wallow around in their own diarrhea.

that solution sure WORKS FOR ME!

13. Follow up question:

"Would you advise people do that today?" "Does it sound like a good idea?"

[alcibiades_mystery]

14. These people are insane

This sounds like Karl Rove coaching, though: yes, take the Seamus on the Roof story and rebrand it as a fun time for all. Anybody with a lick of sense knows that strapping a dog crate to the top a car for a trip of hundreds of miles is a ludicrous and cruel action. I mean, you have to be an imbecile to believe this story.

15. another vacation...we traveled all the time....kenneling a dog for 2 weeks. These people are not

like us

[polichick]

16. Maybe she'd like to ride on top of the car.
