Really? Romney did not make ONE decision for Bain after 1999? Not one phone call? Not....

one meeting? Not one person met him in Utah, had dinner with him to talk about the company or business decisions?

How does Willard think anyone will believe that BS?

First we have the revelation, coming from Obama for America National Press Secretary Ben LaBolt that there is now proof that Romney flew back to Massachusetts for Bain Capital board meetings after 1999 when he supposedly didn’t have anything to do with Bain. Here he is last night on The Ed Show:

"Mitt Romney is holding himself to a double standard because he claims credit for jobs created by these companies that Bain acquired during his tenure – jobs that were created to date. But he won’t accept responsibility for transactions that he was involved with for companies that shipped jobs overseas and went bankrupt with workers losing their jobs and their pensions and their health care benefits. And so he’s furiously tried to extract himself from these three years – 1999 through 2001. Now, he was CEO, chairman of the board, sole owner and sole shareholder. We’re supposed to believe that he didn’t have any involvement with any of these companies? You know, a new report has emerged tonight in sworn testimony in 2002, Romney said that he left Salt Lake to travel back to Massachusetts to appear at board meetings. And so the suggestion that he’s not involved in any of this – that he’s legally responsible, but not personally responsible simply isn’t credible."
