Op-Ed
A page where people can oppose the publishers.What's Romney doing on Obama's car roof? [Joe Quigley]
Joe Quigley fantasizes about an Obama trip to Canada
For those unfamiliar with the Romney dog-strapped-to-car-roof story
Back in 1983, Mitt Romney traveled 12 hours to Canada with his Irish Setter, Seamus, strapped to the roof of the car in a kennel.
Then the doggy do-do
Then, as the Boston Globe described when they broke the story in 2007, Romney’s son noticed a brown liquid dripping down the back window.Romney hosed the dog off and stuffed the hound back into the crate.
The dog allegedly ran away when the Romney family finally reached its vacation destination.
NMA's video, "Mitt Romney ‘dog on roof’ story just won’t die" imagines what Seamus’s fateful trip might have looked like.
Joe Quigley of Dennis draws political cartoons for the American Federation of Teachers/Massachusetts, and for the Elizabeth Warren Campaign.
Right now he has a "Red, White & Blue" sales at his online store on Zazzle.

About
An op-ed is a piece of writing, expressing an opinion. The name originated from the tradition of newspapers placing each columns on the page opposite to the editorial page. Thus the term "op-ed" is simply a combination of "opposite" and "editorial."
