The lies were flowing tonight
http://littlegreenfootballs.com/article/41055_Romneys_Binders_Full_of_Women_Yet_Another_Lie
One of the most strikingly absurd moments from tonights debate was when Mitt Romney claimed he had binders full of women that he had helped get jobs while governor of Massachusetts.
Because, like so much of what Romney says, this claim was simply not true. .................
What actually happened was that in 2002 prior to the election, not even knowing yet whether it would be a Republican or Democratic administration a bipartisan group of women in Massachusetts formed MassGAP to address the problem of few women in senior leadership positions in state government. There were more than 40 organizations involved with the Massachusetts Womens Political Caucus (also bipartisan) as the lead sponsor.
They did the research and put together the binder full of women qualified for all the different cabinet positions, agency heads, and authorities and commissions. They presented this binder to Governor Romney when he was elected.
