There are 2 videos at the link, first one looks like a homemade video with pictures telling the "Tree Stump Story" the second one is CBS news discussing the good works that Romney has done including the Tree Stump.

For those who can't watch the videos the story is, back in 2008 during some wildfires in CA Mitt Romney showed up to this guys house and helped remove a stump from his yard from a tree that had been on fire. He wasn't just standing around giving orders he was there with a shovel and a chainsaw hacking and digging away. He was offered breakfast, but declined until the job was done. No press was there only photos were by the people there, and he was doing this while he was running for POTUS in 2008.

0bama was asked for comment and said,"He didn't dig out the stump".  :-)

Captain Zero would be afraid to get his hands dirty. If he was there, he would just stand at his podium, with the TOTUS, and talk the tree out of the ground.

IIRC , there was a picture of Obama at some ground-breaking ceremony and he was the only one that didn't lift a shovel.

I believe that.
