In the wake of the grave controversy regarding Mitt Romney's alleged animal cruelty, the Boston Globe has now reported that Romney may also have been a habitual violator of his hometown's dog leash law. This latest disclosure threatens to end his once promising presidential ambitions prematurely.

Caught by surprise by the Globe's investigative reporter, Romney's sister Jane blurted out the corpus delecti:

She says he was such a social dog that he often left Mitt Romney's Belmont home to visit his "dog friends" around town. "He kept ending up at the pound," she says. "They were worried about him getting hit crossing the street." So a few years after Seamus's ride to Canada, Mitt sent Seamus to live for a time with Jane and her family in California. "We had more space, so he could roam more freely," she says.

Sources suggest that the sister may also have been in violation of similar leash laws in California.

Well that's how I'd anticipate reading about this nonsense on the prevailing leftie blogs.

Pfff, animal abuse. The whole thing is so petty, so intellectually dishonest, so sanctimonious and phoney, it makes me laugh.

There are plenty of issues on which Mitt Romney should be held accountable -- and is answering to every day. His treatment of the family dog isn't one of them.
