Re: romney lies to american people

Here is, even, Fox News criticizing their boy.

Quote:
If Romney vetted himself, his tax returns would KO shot at White House

Only time will answer those questions, but one thing we already know for sure: based on the one year of tax returns he's publicly released so far, Mitt Romney himself wouldn't make the cut as a vice presidential contender if he wasn't already at the top of the ticket.

Think about it. What candidate for president -- even a GOP candidate for president -- would pick a guy as a running mate who would only hand over one year of tax returns, as Mitt Romney has done?

And would anybody pick that guy if that one tax return revealed Swiss Bank accounts and more than $30 million in off shore accounts in the Cayman Islands-- especially in an election year when public anger at Wall Street remains so high?

The answer is: no.

"Just four years ago, Mitt Romney gave the McCain campaign 23 years of tax returns -- and didn't get picked for the VP slot. John McCain knows why he didn't pick Mitt Romney in 2008. And he may know many of the answers to the questions raised by the release of Mitt Romney’s single tax return in 2012."

It is amazing to me how worked up people are on how Romney spends his own money yet let lying BO pass with sending OUR money from the stimulus to overseas companies.

Esther, I don't believe anyone is giving Obama a pass. The thread is focusing on Romney.

PO what is it you don't get about his role at Bain...it is very clear he had no control. Why are you continuing to disregard facts?

Glenn Kessler jumps the shark

7/13/12 1:06 PM

Washington Post Fact Checker Glenn Kessler, who has dismissed the significance of Mitt Romney's role at Bain Capital after 1999, announced yesterday that he would reconsider his assessment following the landmark Boston Globe report.

Globe will not issue correction to Romney

The Globe story accurately described the contents of those documents.

Following story - contradictions

Romney Interview Directly Contradicts His Previous Statements About Bain Tenure
Jul 13, 2012 at 6:54 pm

Mitt Romney told CBS News‘s Jan Crawford Friday evening that he did not attend Bain Capital meetings after he left the company in February of 1999 to run the Winter Olympics.

Mitt Romney Blatantly Contradicted Himself Tonight On When He Actually Left Bain Capital

Here's another contradiction that will only muddy the question of when Mitt Romney actually left an active role with Bain Capital.

Romney & Bain Both Lying---Bain’s Own SEC Filings Show Romney Controlled Bain in 2001

A Schedule 13D is used to disclose ownership in a corporation. Here, Bain is making the disclosure. Here is the electronic signature:

Note that the document is signed on behalf of Bain by a managering director who certifies the information is true and complete. For exactly what the document says, read below the fold.

The Schedule 13D states that:
