At first, the new campaign video from the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees seems to be a dialed-back take on Priorities USA’s infamous “Mitt Romney gave my wife cancer” spot. Really, though, aside from the “victim” still being alive, it’s essentially the same line of attack. Mitt Romney’s garbage man, Richard Hayes, knows that his body’s going to break down from hauling Romney’s trash each week, and Romney just doesn’t care.

Please hug your garbage man today and ask them to vote for Mittens.
I care about my garbage man’s happiness exactly as much as he cares about mine.
OK, I will! This seems ripe for a counter-ad of Mitt’s actual garbage man, who most likely gets a generous Xmas bonus from them every year.
This weirdo wants hugs from the people on his route? Better check the sex offender files.
The trash hauling company I use is owned by my republican county commissioner. His employees are well paid non union guys.
This ad is so stupid that it will backfire. It’s already the object of ridicule.
Yes, it’s such a sad story (sniff, sniff)...the poor man...Romney didn’t even have the decency to run out of the house and give the guy a hug. Which reminds me of my own work history. (reaches for hanky) Did you know that none of the employers I worked for more than 35 years had the common decency to hug me after I got done working? They just gave me these things called paychecks. Can you believe it? They thought paying me for services rendered was adequate compensation. The b.....ds. They never once thought (sob) that hugging me would have been better. (sniffles)
This ad is so stupid that it will backfire. It’s already the object of ridicule.
Or the other low paid people who Mitt has visited, brought Christmas dinners to, helped fix their houses, counseled them when they went through troubles, paid for their kids’ education.
We may disagree with some of Romney’s policies, but I have nothing but admiration for the way he lives his life personally. He is a succesful man who goes above and beyond to give back to his community.
Mitt Romney WAS a garbage man for a day when he was running for Governor.
He worked in child care and even made hot dogs at Fenway Park to ‘walk a mile in someone else’s shoes’.
He needs to come confront that misrepresentation. The closest BO has come to taking out the trash is, well, I won’t go there.
You too? Same with me. That’s what happens when you work for a capitalist pig. /S
Now I have to practice:
Puedo yo tener un abrazo hombre de basura?
As opposed to Obama, who takes his garbageman out to dinner?
I think.....you know.......that this guy....you know........doesn’t really understand.......you know.......that no one......you know....is talking about cutting ........you know.......his job you know. You know, Romney was .....you know......talking about the people .....you know.......who have NO job ....you know the ones .......you know ......like the Obamaphone lady.....you know.......who are just leeches .....you know.....on society.
OMG IS THIS FOR REAL???????????
THIS NEEDS TO GO VIRAL
IT IS SO STUPID IT IS AMAZING
Mike Rowe, the “Dirty Jobs” guy is pro-Romney.
I think he needs to make a similar ad showing himself in the hundreds of Dirty Jobs he’s done over the years.
This is just stupid and in the end, probably good for Romney.
Our garbage man never gets out of the truck, which is fitted with an “arm” to lift and empty the specially designed trash bins.
Seriously...an absolutely STUPID waste of somebody’s donation. STUPID!
Personally I would like to kick the SHlT out of my trash guy! @sshole leaves 1/2 on the ground EVERY TIME!
Oh and he is a White Trasher BWAAaaaaaaahaaaa!
First no one hugs a trash man——— Germs
Second Trash Truck depicted picks up can automatically -no human lifting
