2016 Postmortem
Related: About this forumSo if your signature on a SEC document stating you are CEO and Managing Director doesn't mean
you are in charge and confirm the truth of the document, why do they need to sign the document?
Factcheck.org will not back off their claim that Romney had nothing to do with the company since 1999. They are claiming it is reasonable that he could "technically" be the CEO, have absolutely nothing to do with the company except to sign these documents without reading.
If 25 years of service is really 22 years of service isn't that a lie in and of itself? Or really bad math skills. Plus it is really odd 25 years of service is the number of years he signed document for Bain as CEO.
I thought the purpose of the these SEC documents were to put the CEO on the chopping block if the document was falsified. When I sign financial documents I am swearing they are true and would be held responsible if they are not.
Romney wants to be given credit for anything good but take no blame for anything bad. Typical Romney.

I don't think even Condi Rice wants THAT sort of care being giving to treaty considerations with Putin.
