[UPDATE BELOW] Mitt Romney may have strapped his Irish setter Seamus to the roof of his car during a family vacation, but at least he never ate dog like Barack Hussein Obama did…when he was six…in Indonesia.

With TMZ's report yesterday about a Portuguese water dog heading to the White House, the White House has now granted the Washington Post the exclusive: "The girls named it Bo -- and let it be noted that you learned that here first.
