Are all the Romneys hopeless pathological liars?

Exhibit J - Jane Romeny,
the sister that supposedly looked after Seamus after Mitt junked him.

She knows that Seamus was happy in the crate. Why?

If Seamus did not like riding in the rooftop carrier he would have found a way out ... He was a Houdini.

One other tidbit, if you can believe anything this woman says, Seamus was sent to California after he kept running away from Mitt's house and ending up at the pound.

Romney's dog-on-the-car-roof story gains new life

Comedians, animal-rights activists and even his GOP rivals are reciting the potentially damaging story from a family vacation, as told by one of the candidate's sons in 2007...

A few weeks after the story first came out, Romney's sister Jane told the Globe that Seamus often left the family's home to visit his "dog friends" in the neighborhood. "He kept ending up at the pound," she said.

So Romney sent Seamus to live with Jane in California, where he had more space to roam freely. If Seamus did not like riding in the rooftop carrier, she said, he would have found a way out of the space.

"He was a Houdini," she said.

that neither of the Republican front-runners is fit to be elected dog-catcher!

Poor Seamus.

was keeping things hidden in his butt. Letting them out when time was ripe.

I know, I know. Just shutup now?
