Mitt Romney Bain Capital Claims Don't Hold Up To Evidence

Seems evidence is piling up casting doubt on Romney's telling the truth.

But a growing pile of evidence shows that Romney was involved in Bain's dealings far longer than he claims. From signatures on Securities and Exchange Commission filings to his own sworn testimony, this body of proof reveals how Romney's fingerprints lingered on Bain transactions well into 2002, even while he was managing the Olympics.

While the Romney camp and other Republicans have blasted attacks on the former governor's business record as unfair, irrelevant, and "out of control," the inconsistencies between Romney's claims and the documents trail may be very significant to his campaign. While the issue of honesty may prove to be a sticking point with voters, the implication that Romney was still in an active role while Bain was involved in deals that sent American jobs overseas may cut even deeper.

Being a shareholder, CEO, partner or board member doesn't mean that he was active in the day to day business.

Articles like these rely on the ignorace of non-business people to think that titles automaticly mean that Romney was involved in decision making.

It's just a minor variation of the class warfare that Dems play everyday.

Let's suppose that Romney played a more active role in Bain after 1999 than he says he did.

SO WHAT?

What political hay could the Dems make out of it?

If it were not a problem or a multiple problem area why would he not just admit that he was involved. Of course now he has painted himself into a corner and if he were to admit it how it would reflect badly on his honesty.

Also because to lie, if there was a lie, on an SEC document is a crime. But the statutes of limitation have run out, so he probably would not be prosecuted if it were found that he did lie. However that also would reflect very badly on his character.

Of course the truth just might be that Romney wasn't involved in the day to day of Bain when he took his leave of absence.

But the Obama koolaid crowd can't fathom that possibility because Obama's got nothing else to campaign on. :laugh:

Signing the SEC forms is standard fare not requiring that Romney be running the business himself.

Obama koolaid drinkers are as dense as granite.

Killing babies is a crime in the sight of God Crabtownboy and you and your idol Obama are supporters of such. Obama is a rabid supporter as many have shown on this Forum. In all honesty CTB you and your kind have a serious problem. AS if you didn't know it.

Troll, totally off topic. When in doubt or confused shout killing babies. How about contributing something constructive and rational to the conversation?

Posted a bunch of stuff in a previous thread about Steve Jobs being in a similar position, and how he handed over the day-to-day operations to someone else, but still signed SEC documents -- and it's not enough to satisfy.

CTB, we all know you're gonna vote for the unborn human killer. Until you come up with something showing that Romney isn't actually a Mormorn, but a cat-and-chicken-sacrificing satanist, there's pretty much nothing you can post that's going to turn opinions about him.

Your efforts at trying to show flaws in Romney's character are easily countered; how many times has Obama been caught telling a lie? Several? So guess what? You need to focus on something tangible, like the economy.

Do any of you watch baseball? My Yankees lost a few games in a row and then lost A-Rod. He wasn't having a great season, though.

So he's currently not playing baseball for the Yankees, but he's still listed on the roster. May we still refer to him as "the Yankee's third baseman" or is that a potential felony?

Neither you nore the Hufffington cares about the truth. Only about the doubts you can put in the minds of people. This posting is political tactics and not about honesty, integrity, or truth.

Is that what you are doing with all your anti-Obama postings? :laugh:
