Deception: Time For Mitt Romney To Come Clean!

Mitt Romney has insisted that he left Bain Capital in 1999. Well if that’s the case then the DOJ should open up an investigation into who was filing falsified reports with the SEC: Government documents filed by Mitt Romney and Bain Capital say Romney remained chief executive and chairman of the firm three years beyond […]

Mitt Romney has insisted that he left Bain Capital in 1999. Well if that’s the case then the DOJ should open up an investigation into who was filing falsified reports with the SEC:

Government documents filed by Mitt Romney and Bain Capital say Romney remained chief executive and chairman of the firm three years beyond the date he said he ceded control, even creating five new investment partnerships during that time.

Romney has said he left Bain in 1999 to lead the winter Olympics in Salt Lake City, ending his role in the company. But public Securities and Exchange Commission documents filed later by Bain Capital state he remained the firm’s “sole stockholder, chairman of the board, chief executive officer, and president.”

And Mitt himself should be investigated for falsifying documents:

Also, a Massachusetts financial disclosure form Romney filed in 2003 states that he still owned 100 percent of Bain Capital in 2002. And Romney’s state financial disclosure forms indicate he earned at least $100,000 as a Bain “executive” in 2001 and 2002, separate from investment earnings.

So what is it Mitt, did you lie to the government or are you lying to voters? There’s now a paper trail, including government forms filed by you that contradict what you say.

But Romney’s problems don’t stop there. He still needs to answer to his greed that has cost countless Americans their livelihood. Things like this:

Sankaty is a story in itself. It was recently the focus of an Associated Press investigation that reported that Sankaty “is among several Romney holdings that have not been fully disclosed” and that there is a “mystery surrounding” Sankaty. Reporting on this Romney entity, Vanity Fair noted that “investments in tax havens such as Bermuda raise many questions, because they are in ‘jurisdictions where there is virtually no tax and virtually no compliance,’ as one Miami-based offshore lawyer put it.” With Sankaty, Romney was using a mysterious Bermuda-based entity to invest in a Chinese firm that thrived on US outsourcing.

Is screwing over the people of your own country to increase your wealth what Republicans now consider patriotism? If so then color me an America hater, because I don’t believe in screwing over people just to help my own portfolio. Perhaps that’s why I’m not Romney rich, but at least I can sleep well at night.
