The Gawker Dumps On Bain Capital

Poynter describes this as a Wikileaks-style data dump, some of it's old stuff and it definitely needs vetting, but here it is for your careful, thoughtful consideration and discussion.

The Bain Files

Supposed to contain more details about Romney's Cayman Island activities.

I guess the Obama campaign will have to give back the money that was bUndled by Jonathan Lavine, a Bain capital exec involved in shutting down a steel plant.

I make a distinction between all the common investors especially if the investment is via a portfolio package and the guy who founded/established the thing at the get-go.  It goes to character of the founder.

Sorry, nothing to do with jonathan Levine.  Back to the rabbit hole we go.  If you don't know who Levine is then you are in no position to lay judgement on Romney or Bain.  Goes to show that you only repeat whatever the dems want you to repeat.

Levine's only the co-fonder who needed the work-around. Romney was the other co-founder who engineered the mechanisms of the work-around. Try again.

Now Clara claims he wasn't a common investor completely debunking her previous post.  She has no **** clue who he is. :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:


What is that immature and childish style of yours?  Oh yeah.  Fail.  Levine ran the company during the time that you are trying to pin on Romney. 


Obamabot mindset:


Romney bad.


Lavine, Obamabot, good.

The Gawker isn't running for President. Mitt Romney IS.

And Bain Capital is created in Mitt Romney's image and likeness because Mitt Romney is its creator, whether he runs the company directly or doesn't.

If you are a democrat senator, congressmen, journalist or supporter you can funnel your money thru foreign countries and open accounts in the caymens with Clara's blessing.

Sorry pumpkin, your excuse does not cut it.  The day you treat all federal elected officials and those who criticize them in the same manner I will believe you are sincere and more then another kentay with better spelling and sentence structure.

So to CLARAfy you are saying that members of congress who write the tax law that allows such financial manueverings are perfectly welcome in your opinion to invest overseas in order to avoid the tax code THEY WRITE?  You do understand who creates the tax laws that the CIC signs, correct?


Remember, clara says it only counts if you are running for president.

Why would anyone want a man that has spent his life finding ways to escape paying his fair share of taxes like most middle class people do. This country is going to overhaul its tax system and having someone like Romney and Ryan setting in the cat bird seat is just too much for me. I think all of us owe something back to our country like the Greatest generation gave us not what  Romney wants to give us, and person  that never served this country in any capacity, just a taker. I was Born and raised in Detroit I Know exactly where the Romney lived and I also know his father because he was our Governor and ran for President and because of his honesty of saying the Military brain washing him which was true, it signaled the end of his candidacy I am telling you this Mitt Romney would not make a pimple on his father butt, The old man was a man and was never like Mitt, because he loved his country and money was not his total focus like it's been for Mitt. kentay

We turned over a real mess to President Obama, he hasn't cleaned it up fast enough, so give us another chance to  create a depression.

I have read those words before.  Fair share.  Owe.  Greatest Generation.  Served the Country.  Pimple on his Butt.  Love his country.  Yeah, he wrote those words for both Bush. And McCain.  Do you have a template so all you have to do is change the names?


Anyway, you are ok with those who actual,y write tax law parking their money in tax havens, huh?
