Is This a Picture of Mitt Romney Pumping His Own Gas?

Nov. 20, 2012 7:15am Jonathon M. Seidl

A curious picture has popped up on the viral website Reddit. There, a user posted a photo of a man who looks a lot like Mitt Romney pumping his own gas.

“Mitt Romney at my local gas station.. he looks tired and washed up,” the headline says:

Picture on Reddit Says It Shows Mitt Romney Pumping Gas

Photo: Reddit user mkb95

So far there’s no confirmation that it’s actually Romney — and it could be the user simply posted the picture of a look-alike as a joke. But for what it’s worth, the user does offer this tidbit:

I talked to him for a good three minutes while he was filling his tank. I guess he’s moving to one of his houses in the town I live in, La Jolla.

Romney does, in fact, have a house in La Jolla, CA. You might remember it was the topic of those trash collector attacks on him.

By the way, the user also noted that the man did not have any security with him and that posting the picture “was definitely not a negatively inspired post, I just thought it would interest some of you.”

UPDATE:

Business Insider posted another picture from Twitter user @thegirlss who also claims to have snapped a photo of Romney at the same gas station:

Additionally, the Union-Tribune in San Diego did note Mitt was in town this weekend:

Mitt and Ann Romney were back in town this weekend. The GOP’s presidential candidate and his wife were seen quietly dining at Sammy’s Woodfired Pizza restaurant in Del Mar Highlands Town Center mall (see photos on U-T website). They reportedly viewed Twilight Saga’s “Breaking Dawn, Part 2” at the upscale Cinepolis theater complex there.
While at Sammy’s, Romney graciously posed with Sammy’s Manager Areen Yuson and employees Caitlyn Schmit and Jerica Maciel.

Little evidence of their return was visible at their oceanfront home in La Jolla’s quiet Lower Hermosa area, however. This time, no barricades were up and no black SUVs stood vigil, much to the relief, no doubt, of neighbors who had been inconvenienced by past security measures.

And others nabbed pictures of him while he was around the area.

So with all that said, what do you think?

  Wait, how can that be? According to the “chosen people” controlled Marxist Media, Mitt had a limo driver everywhere…….he rode around in a stretch limo, he had servants surrounding him to take care of his every need. You can thank your “chosen people” who control the media for the election outcome. They are propaganda masters.

  Romney is very real. I’ve followed him for years. He and his boys get out and cut down trees and they do their own clean up. The man actually cooks which most men refused to do. They may have a lot of money but they are normal people. They don’t have maids and butlers like the democrats tried to betray him. I think Mrs. Romney had help when she was diagnosed with cancer and going through chemotherapy.

Why not do it yourself? An independent, free life consists of very simple things, and having control of it is a big part of it.

Romney was a self made man not a man who relies on others for his brains. He is a decent person. He doesn’t deserve this tripe.

  Proverbs, how on earth can you see (or not see) if he’s wearing a wedding ring in either of these pictures? I can’t see either of his hands well enough to make that determination. It’s also not uncommon at the end of a long day to have your pants and shirt look less than freshly pressed. After a campaign cycle, to be frank, I’d probably want to just disappear and hide away from the world for awhile without having to worry about a perfectly manicured appearance at every turn. As for no security – I doubt the man will spend the rest of his life with a security detail.
  
  All that said, what clinched it for me, to be honest, is the expression on his face in the second picture. THAT is a Mitt expression through and through.
  
  What I find hilarious is that so many people would be shell-shocked that Mitt Romney would, GASP, pump his own gas. There are photos galore of him doing manual labor, even if no one wants to admit that. He’s just a man, after all.
  
  Now, BamBam, on the other hand… I’m fairly certain that commie, elitist, entitled snob wouldn’t know how to operate a gas pump if his life depended on it.

  Actually, he appears to be gassing up the car to take a trip out to a cabin in the woods. Likely he’ll encounter pure evil there, have to cut off his hand and replace it with a chainsaw. Then he’ll get sucked through a dimensional vortex and end up back in the days of King Authur, where he’ll defeat himself in a grand battle.

  6 months that stupid could do in 60 years. WE are the losers in this race. GOD is in Charge and I trust Him. We have gone so far off the decency range – we can’t recognize a good, decent, capable Patriot when we see him. GOD BLESS MITT/ANN/THEIR FAMILY … He KNOWS he is not a loser, he feels badly for AMERICA. PS Most people with REAL money don’t need to dress up to go to the gas station – most old money, real money folks prefer to do their own chores and get about their day..only the phony wanna bes (like NEWT ) use up a $ 500,000 line of credit with Tiffanys.

  @ REALITY_BITES ETC. Wow…how have you lived long enough to be able to use a Computer and now know about GOD? HE is not a puppet master, dude, He is our CREATOR ! HE gave us FREEDOM of CHOICE. WE misuse that freedom; we elect a Communist; we allow voting fraud; and now we have to live with the consequences. Some of us didn’t vote. Some people who call themselves RELIGIOUS didn’t bother to come out of their homes and cast their ballots. WE all live with that. FOR those of us who LOVE GOD and TRUST HIM, we KNOW that whatever happens, HE will work ALL THINGS FOR GOOD for THOSE WHO LOVE GOD (Romans 8:28).
  IF AMERICANS have to have our freedom taken away; stumble and fall; learn what hunger is; fail; then so be it. Maybe next time we’ll make better choices. Whatever happens I KNOW that it will end up okay for me and mine and all who know GOD. I have no idea what people who don’t know GOD must think or go through..no redemption; no hope; nothing. Must be awful – but that’s what stubborn pride will do to you. MITT and ANN are GODLY people, while I’m sure it makes them sad that AMERICAN have thrown away the benefits of having them in the WH, they will be and are just fine. HOW does anyone get to know the real GOD? They get off by themselves and simply ASK HIM to ‘speak to them’ to ‘lead them to Him’. That’s how “simple” it is, dude.

  Call the Obama administration to see if they can start a program that will invest in community shoe lace replacers. It would be a “shovel ready” job and could employ thousands of new government workers.

No, what I think is that the author is a jackass for calling him “tired and washed up”

  how about just got into the area…dropped the family off at the house…ran out to put gas in the SUV that was sitting in the garage…and it was like 2am or something….looks like he just woke up…
  
  and for the other comment..you can’t see his ring finger..so you don’t know about the wedding ring… you can’t tell the brand of his shirt or pants either…who says he only wears tailor made clothing or Armani suits? I have seen him in Levi’s and t-shirts or polos quite a lot….

Oregon is the only state that I know of that will not allow you to pump your own gas. Deposed hippies man the pumps in that state.

So what, back in the 80′s I saw Bill Gates pumping gas into his rental car. BFD.

  Yes, and I’m so thankful I don’t have to get out of my car in all kinds of weather to pump gas into my car. I like the fact that gas stations still provide employment for people in Oregon too, instead of saving those dollars by making you all do your own. Gas is cheaper here than in California and Washington as well.

Looks like Bruce Campbell. Wouldn’t it be unusual to see such a high profile guy without Secret Service protection only a couple weeks after the election?

What staggers me is not that he is pumping his own gas, but the look of devastation on his face — look at his eyes. Absolute, total betrayal of a man by his own “party”. That’s at least FIVE GOOD MEN AMERICA has sacrificed in a month’s time (or less) not counting ALL the military we have lost in senseless wars during the same time.

Anyone out there doubt for a minute that satan is in control of our country (in leadership positions)?

GOD, good morning, from YOUR kids down here. LORD, we surely hope YOU are coming soon and / or will cut us loose to take care of business. Hope that didn’t make YOU blow coffee through YOUR nose this a.m., but things are getting really bad down here, LORD, esp. in ISRAEL. We could surely use some DIVINE INTERVENTION from YOU. The other guy, YOUR enemy has been intervening way too much. Time for his “time out”.

We love you, LORD. Sure be good to see YOUR face, GOD. In JESUS’ name, amen.

  dont read too much into a photo – you know how those inquirer magazines
  
  I’d be willing to bet Romney is not down – he has a good family, wealth, and lots of free time….Unless his ambition to become president has overwhelmed everything else

  Romney’s run meant more for us than for him. It is harder for the rest of us to weather the storm. He can go Jim Rogers on us faster than we could.
  
  Jim Rogers is over in Singapore weathering the tax sh/tstorm. Meanwhile the rest of us have to put up with the machination of election savvy but economic morons.

  GRANDMA – there is still a way to change the election result. If 1/3 of the States do not cast their vote in the Electoral College then the vote goes to the House of Representatives. See the details. There are enough RED States to do this.

It does resemble Mitt. Too bad the picture didn’t show more of the car with its license plate.

Why is this a story? I’m sure Mitt pumps his own gas many times. I’m also sure he get tired and has bad day. Don’t you? He isn’t a god, he is a husband, father of 5 boys and business man.

  That would be great. Bain Capital, the only Corp. making money during Obama’s reign of economic tyranny. What a thought.

He doesnt look ‘washed up’, its just what someone looks like without spending an hour in ****&makeup. Where is that soft orange glow that usually comes from his head?

He is not necessarily tired nor washed up. Just a normal person out and about doing errands like the rest of us.

  It sure looks like him but I’m not sure. Anyway he would pump his own gas, just like he did laundry in a laundry mat during his campaign. I saw a picture of that also.

I don’t think that is really him based on the wal-mart looking clothes.

Who GAS (gives a sh**) if it’s Mitt or not, nothing in this world will change if it is or it isn’t. 4 Americans are still dead and were murdered by the Democrat party and that will NEVER CHANGE.
America is such Media Whores, they will believe anything on the telly or the web.

Why is there a question?? Because it COULD be him. We know there would be a question if a similar situation involved Obammy or Bubba, because they would NEVER pump their own gas.
