Romney has a really hard time actually caring about "you people" - does a photo-op with a well to do "farmer", inspecting his corn crops amidst this wonderful drought we are having.

I wonder how much "free stuff" I mean gov't subsidies this guy has received...
In an attempt to show his concern for farmers hit by the devastating drought that has swept 78 percent of the country, Romney had a photo-op with Iowa “farmer” Lemar Koethe. However, Koethe isn’t exactly the rugged down-home farmer struggling to keep his operation going that you might expect.
Or should I say operations — 54 of them. Yes, according to the Des Moines Register, Koethe owns 54 soy and corn farms. And that’s just one of his jobs.
In previous reports on his activity over the years from the Des Moines Register, Koethe is also a described as a millionaire, a real estate mogul, and a former concert promoter who booked acts like Slipknot at his 24,000 square foot event center.
curious how much of a donation this guy gave to Mittens
