Romney’s garbage man blasts him in new political ad. Criticizes Mitt for “not caring about garbagemen.” Crash and burn: Romney once played undercover trash collector while campaigning for Massachusetts governor: “…a lot of us don’t think garbage men are worthy of notice; I disagree – anyone who works that hard deserves our respect.” And they do get paid, don’t they?

I'm pretty sure the garbage collectors in La Jolla aren't exactly living in poverty.
Lessee if I understand this. When a useful idiot cant decide who to vote for they check with their garbage man???? Wow. I know democrat voters ie useful idiots are stupid but I didnt think their party would so obviously point it out to them. But of course, you can get more intelligent information out of your garbage man than you can from the MSM.
The only garbage I've seen was coming from Richard Hayes's mouth, and we all can smell that Union stench.
He's not only a garbage man, but he's black, lol. They must be desperate, the progressives.
When we have a free and robust society and economy, this man has more then enough opportunity to do other things than be a garbage man. Yet it would seem he is incapable of doing anything on his own and wants the government to help and support him in some way. Why should Mittens thank him again? He should thank Mittens for the millions in taxes he pays.
"“My name is Richard Hayes, and I pick up Mitt Romney’s trash. We’re kind of like the invisible people. He doesn’t realize that the service we provide — if it wasn’t for us, it would be a big health issue, us not picking up trash.
No . . . somebody else would be paid to do the job. And I agree with you Joe . . . he should be thanking Mitt for paying the taxes that give him a job.
PS- You can't stop the signal!
especially if you bring a Reaver fleet screaming to the fray..
LOL, well done sir!
ya know what cracks me up about that 'verse?
Over the years, its clear to me that both conservatives and liberals think they are the Independents (browncoats) in that scenario
That is funny. Joss is obviously not one . . . but Mal is almost certainly a libertarian.
You know what, you two are real shiny.
Why on earth would I take advice from a man who's life choices resulted in him being a garbage man?
The world needs garbage men.. at the very least, his life choices led him--to some extent--away from the welfare teat (perhaps a nibble now and then, rather then full-on latch/suckle?)
Super, by making do as best he can he isn't a lamprey on society. That is the bare minimum we should expect of fellow citizens.
What a profoundly dumb ad, but it's what you expect from a profoundly dumb union. I'm only surprised that the oppressed and suffering Richard Hayes didn't accuse Romney of being responsible for his wife's death.
Coming next: what did Mr. Hayes find in Romney's garbage? Empty scotch bottles? KKK literature? Dead Mexicans?
I read that the garbageman in question works 32 hours a week. Makes $4700 a month and gets all he can eat free.
If Team BO wants to go positive in their next add, they could haul out the DC sanitation workers who handle the system near the White House to testify that the President's sewage smells like Chanel No. 5
Now, is this a real garbageman, or this another of those "composite characters" Sock Puppet is so fond of?
