The best magazine in the world, does it again.

In 1983, Romney and his family were preparing for their annual vacation to a family cottage in Beach O'Pines, Ontario.
Beach O' Pines is a private gated community located on the shores of Lake Huron in Lambton County, Ontario, Canada. Beach O' Pines was the site of what is considered one of the most important real estate and civil rights cases in Ontario and Canadian history, in which the Supreme Court of Canada struck down a restrictive covenant that restricted ownership of a section of land to "persons of the white or Caucasian race".
Seamus was enclosed in a carrier on the roof of the Romney family's station wagon. Sometime during the trip, the dog became afflicted with diarrhea, causing excrement to flow down the windows of the car. Romney stopped at a gas station to wash Seamus and the car, put Seamus back in his carrier, and continued the twelve-hour trip to Ontario.
In 2012, in response to Mitt Romney’s road trip, web designer Jack Shepler created the neologism 'romney' which means 'to defecate in terror'.
Kudos, then, to cover illustrator Bob Staake, for being political correct in omitting 'SANTORUM' flowing down the car window.
RIP
Seamus had the nickname 'Mr. Personality' because he was a social dog, was later given to Mitt Romney's sister, Jane Romney of California, and has since died.
