– Former Michigan Governor and Current TV host Jennifer Granholm uncovered more evidence that Mitt Romney retained executive titles at Bain Capital well into 2003, more than three years after his campaign claims he stepped down from the company to head the Salt Lake City Olympic Organizing Committee:

10. And he promises to run government

. . . the way he runs his business. With efficient lying. All the time.

I swear, not even Tricky Dick Nixon lied the way Romney does. He's "gated" himself before he could even gain the White House! The way he would change his stance to fit any audience, I somehow knew he would end up being the most mendacious, corrupt, of the bunch. So, he lies on SEC forms, too, to fit the convenience of the moment. How consistently inconsistent. This is someone who has never been called out for his lies before.

Looks like the Repub Convention is going to be interesting after all. I wonder which reject they'll have to dust off for their nomination? Gingrich? Santorum? Cain?


Conservatives will finally get their Notromney on the ticket to lose to Obama by 20 points. What a setback for the GOP, for Conservatives!

Am I dreaming too much? For once my dreams seem to be within grasp.

18. He's gotten away with shit his whole life and never been called on it

and now thinks he's entitled to do so. How DARE they hold me to account!

[snappyturtle]

11. WOW! What gets me is that why do we give the time of day

to what Bain says? Bain=Rmoney! Of course, he'll lie...
he does it all the time. If this isn't enough to get Rmoney
off the political landscape I have no idea what would.

17. You're welcome :)

21. This is damning. MSNBC has been discussing this throughout the day.

This is not going away.

[surrealAmerican]

14. Someone needs to put together a time-line for this.

What he was doing, when, and where. Was he even eligible to be governor?

[Blanks]

22. That would be helpful.

I also think it would be helpful if we had some specific examples of a few things that he was doing while at Bain on the timeline.

Particularly if Bain benefitted as a result of actions that he was taking in his other capacities.

15. document Mitt filed

Here is a link to the actual document Mitt filed. I found it at this site. You can see where he mentions being a passive investor in some of Bain capital companies but there are others which don't carry that distinction
