The dog-eat-dog world of the 2012 presidential campaign just got a little nastier.
The Daily Caller’s Jim Treacher on Tuesday flagged a passage from President Barack Obama’s memoir “Dreams From My Father,” in which Obama recalls eating dog meat in Indonesia when he was a young boy. (The president describes the meat as “tough,” but not as tough as the snake meat he also ate.)
“Say what you want about Romney, but at least he only put a dog on the roof of his car, not the roof of his mouth,” Treacher wrote, referencing the infamous tale about Mitt Romney’s dog Seamus being forced to ride on the roof of the former governor’s family car during a highway drive in the 1980s — a bizarre story that the Obama campaign has seized on to question the character of the president’s likely Republican opponent.
Treacher’s article has caught fire on Twitter, inspiring the hashtag #ObamaDogRecipes. Here are a few of the more creative tweets we found:
