Before saying anything about dogs, or making an issue over Mitt Romney transporting his Irish Setter Seamus on the roof of the family car, it seems someone in the Obama campaign should have known that in the second chapter of the President's best-selling autobiography,Dreams from My Father: A Story of Race and Inheritance, he described his childhood in Indonesia in the following way:

With [stepfather] Lolo, I learned how to eat small green chili peppers raw with dinner (plenty of rice), and, away from the dinner table, I was introduced to dog meat (tough), snake meat (tougher), and roasted grasshopper (crunchy). Like many Indonesians, Lolo followed a brand of Islam that could make room for the remnants of more ancient animist and Hindu faiths. He explained that a man took on the powers of whatever he ate: One day soon, he promised, he would bring home a piece of tiger meat for us to share.

Taking on the "powers of whatever he ate" certainly explains the President's dogged determination, slithering political style and grasshopper agility when it comes avoiding blame. That aside, the Barack Obama "eats dog" controversy not only reveals a primitive side to the President's Indonesian upbringing, but it's also a prime example of the dichotomy that exists within the ideology of liberalism in America today.

Condemning the transportation of a dog in a pet crate on a car roof while supporting a President with a history of eating dog is indicative of the imperious elitism the left often promotes.
