From the Guardian: “Twenty-nine years ago Romney took his family on a 12-hour road trip from Boston to Ontario, strapping the family dog to a kennel on their car roof. As the Chevrolet station wagon barreled down the highway, Seamus clung on for dear life; even after the dog suffered a diarrhea attack, Romney just sprayed everything down and continued with the journey.
“The song is part of a campaign by Gerald V Casale, one of Devo’s founders. Remember Seamus proposes to ‘make 2012 the year where animals like Seamus are valued and honesty is praised.’ The group has rallied behind Dogs Against Romney, a Facebook page with more than 70,000 fans, and Casale has also contributed to a forthcoming video game, The Crate Escape: Seamus Unleashed, which is due on 26 August – National Dog Day in the US.” (via Towleroad)
