(Newser) – Mitt Romney's infamous decision to strap the family dog to the roof of the car on a vacation trip will be immortalized in song. Devo will release "Don't Roof Rack Me, Bro! (Remember Seamus)" on Aug. 25, reports Rolling Stone. (You can listen here, via a Huffington Post link.) Group founder Gerald Casale is apparently a big dog guy, because he's also got a Seamus-themed website and a smartphone game in the works, and he's a supporter of the Dogs Against Romney movement. The song is sure to be on Times columnist Gail Collins' download list.

Devo makes me laugh, in a good way.

All for it great idea.  You can pretty much judge people by the way they treat animals.  Hey we never did get a straight  answer concerning what happened to the dog.  Oh we got a lot of answers from the Romney clan but no two the same. And it that lies the problem.
