RCade's summary on Drudge ReTort: "A new Mitt Romney campaign video on the economy features Ryan King of Midland, Michigan, a recent college graduate who says he has fallen on hard times. King, who claims he has $3 to his name and eats bologna sandwiches because they're cheap, does not disclose that he's a Republican activist who was the vice treasurer for the Midland County Young Republicans in 2009." (Sourced Greg Sargent's blog) According to Daily Kos, King has a degree in business administration from Northwood University.

2. The GOP must have a dearth of fat blowhard liars ih can't find a job as bootlicker someplace.

SO is the BAstard lying about being unemployed? Perhaps he should learn Hindi and try starting over in Calcutta.

Pick yourself up by your bootstraps. That's what every republican says that we should do.

4. "before I cash my paycheck tomorrow"

that's what he says at 1:01. "I have $3 to my name, before I cash my paycheck tomorrow." Then later he says, "is it my fault I can't get a job?"

5. "Employers want experience-etc"

Got news for ya baloney boy- that shit didn't start in 2009. It was already like that in 2007 when I found myself unexpectedly out of work, and who knows how long before then? I was out of circulation for a few years before that because I went back to school to finish my degree. When I came out in 2004 all I could get were temp/contractor jobs- and now temp agencies -at least in my area- have all started making you take those fascist "personality tests". You know, the ones with "no wrong answers"- just answers that will keep you from getting the job.

6. You must be in Georgia too. I'm out of work since 2008 and it's

the same story. The ad looks totally legit to me; you could run it as an ad for the Democrats.
