No matter what the president does he just can't win! Romney caught flack earlier this year when it was learned that in 1983 he took the family dog, strapped it down in a dog kennel and placed it on the roof of the car while he traveled form Boston Canada.
Now Romney aides have pointed out that when President Obama was a child in Indonesia he was fed dog meat.
Actually this story is really not even breaking news. The president himself wrote about it in his best-selling memoir, "Dreams from My Father: A Story of Race and Inheritance". The president recalls being fed dog meat as a young boy in Indonesia with his stepfather, Lolo Soetoro.
His stepfather, who practiced a form of Islam that included ancient animist and Hindu faiths, believed that a man took on the powers of what he ate. President Obama was also fed snake meat and roasted grasshoppers. His stepfather also promised him he would one day bring home tiger meat. This practice is nothing new for the people of Indonesia.
Anyone with a television and cable has seen shows where the host goes to different parts of the world eating all kinds of crazy crap. Just because Europeans don't do it that doesn't mean it's wrong and it doesn't make other cultures inferior.
Whether Romney condones the story or not it just goes to show you the lengths a campaign will go to in order to slander someone.
If this is all the Romney campaign can dig up on the president then Obama is going to win in a landslide.
If you’re thinking about running for president you better keep track of what you eat! I suggest you keep your meals simple and bland because you never know when your food intake will be called into question!
Bon Appetite!
