Your comments make me wonder if you hold the door for people. I certainly don't have to, but I was raised to be courteous.

How is the guy a gold digger? It was an anonymous video until now.
Do I hold the door open for people. DAILY. I also refer to people as "sir" just as a common courtesy. Just because some one is driving a twenty-three year old truck with 200k miles on it doesn't mean they don't have twin brand new Jaguars in the garage.

I'm sure he'll benefit from it one way or another.

I disliked Romney and everything he stood for, but I think this guy got a brush of fame and took advantage of it.

People are just saying that Romney is jerk for not saying "thank you".
This is exactly what I said - If I understand correctly, people paid $50k a pop to eat a meal with Romney. I'm guessing Romney's time was pretty important, and if he was speaking on a subject at that exact moment maybe he failed to pause his conversation and acknowledge the waiter because he brought us a second glass of water.

I'm a nice guy, I try to put a smile on the cashier's face at the drive through and what because I know their job sucks - been there done that - but if I'm in mid sentence when a waiter or waitress brings a drink to my table it's entirely possible that I might not say "thank you" or even acknowledge them.
