LOL! The leftist "swiftboating" of Romney continues. Remember when you and I shared righteous indignation at the dirtbag "swiftboating" of John Kerry? At least one of us isn't a hypocrite, eh?
Romney is quoted in the release from Regan Communications of Boston as saying, “While we will miss them, we wish them well and look forward to working with them as they build their firm,” language that suggests he was still involved in Bain personnel matters.
Huh? WTF? Is it so difficult to imagine an administrative assistant preparing this letter and having Mitt sign it (which in all likelihood was when he learned of the departures)?
And, from an operational perspective, when someone takes a leave of absence and then retires at the end of it, how does one infer from that that the guy was really showing up each day and running the day to day operations during his LOA? It doesn't - that is absurd!
And then there is this:
Last week, FactCheck.org re-published part of an Associated Press story from April 1999, two months after Romney took the Olympic job, which reported he had little time for anything else. Even celebrations of his wife’s 50th birthday and the couple’s 30th wedding anniversary reportedly had to be canceled. The AP also quoted a Romney friend, Bob White, as saying “Right now, he’s doing two, maybe three fulltime jobs,” running the Olympics.
As an elite competitor might log endless time in weight and film rooms, Romney put in 112-hour weeks at the beginning of his tenure as chief executive of the Games, the AP reported.
Fortune magazine reported Thursday that it had obtained confidential offering documents Bain Capital gave to prospective investors in 2000, ahead of the launch of its seventh private equity fund.
The prospectus lists “certain investment professionals responsible for the day-to-day affairs of the Brookside and Sankaty funds, which are affiliated funds of Fund VII.”
Fortune noted that Romney was not among the 18 managers identified in the documents.
