In reply to the discussion: I do not own a dog... [View all]MADem
(135,425 posts)88. But that isn't what I said--see, you can't even be forthright in defending yourself.
You had to make up words to try to rebut, and hope no one will notice. And you doubled down, and repeated your false characterization for a second time.
But see, I noticed. I noticed the first time and I let it slide. Now, I'm calling you on your mischaracterizations. Let's review, and remember, we're talking about putting a dog in a crate on top of a swiftly moving car for 12 hours:
Someone who would do this to a defenseless animal--and anyone who doesn't have a problem with it--has issues.
Your petty little response was to say anyone who disagreed with you was "psychotic."
That response, in and of itself, is most interesting--and not in a good way.
I will also infer from your comments that you are not a vet, and nothing about the profession. I will also infer that your skills in animal care are very poor indeed. But don't believe me, Google the topic of dogs soiling their crates, and you'll find that the quoted vet isn't a "Frist" on this topic. That's basic animal care knowledge, that any individual of even moderate intelligence working in a kennel environment "gets." It's not a great mystery to most people.
Keep flying your flag, though. Or digging your hole. You're not getting a lot of backing, here--ever stop to wonder why?

This single incident resonates with everybody. It represents everything that is wrong with Romney.

Dog inside the car vs strapped on top in a crate - you don't see a difference?

Imagine that scene of the Roomneys cruising down the highway with dog shit running down the winows

Don't forget--the poor dog crapped himself in fear, and RMoney's "solution" was to blast the dog's

Keep revealing yourself--calling other people "clearly psychotic" says much about you.

No, as your quotation indicates, the original source was in the Boston Globe story.

Bummer. I had to do without a dog for two years a while back - the house seemed "empty".

How does your sister feel about crating a dog on top of a car at 70 mph?
