No, Obama doesn't *EAT* dog meat (present tense). He ate it as a kid when he lived in another country, another culture and probably didn't know there was anything offensive about it.
Republicans are embarrassing themselves by dwelling on this. What a non-scandal.
FTR, I think Romney strapping the family dog on top of their vehicle WAS stupid. Maybe not deliberately mean or cruel, but definitely stupid. It sounds like the kind of idea a MAN would have for taking an animal along on vacation.  Romney should have responded with, "I thought he would enjoy the ride, but it made the dog sick. Stupid decision on our [my?!!] part, but it's never happened again, and we LOVE our dog." End of story. ...instead of responding with something about Obama eating dog meat as a kid.
