This is boring, and I'm a political junkie.  The only interesting thing about Bain Capital is the level of desperation it indicates in the Obama campaign.  He can't run on his record, that's obvious.


It is quite humorous though.  Every major factcheck organization has debunked this crap.  The MA Ballot commission said he left Bain.  And that was a unanimous finding by a bi partisan panel.


But watching the left keep this alive is amusing.  I still don't have comedy central so I need a laugh from somewhere.


Thanks Kentay!
A reminder for kentay:
I fully support going back to ALL, that says ALL THE CLINTON TAX and spend policies that led to the economic boom in the second half of the 90's.

"The Fact Checker" at The Washington Post disagrees!

http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/fact-checker/post/do-bain-sec-documents-suggest-mitt-romney-is-a-criminal/2012/07/12/gJQAlyPpgW_blog.html





Factcheck.org has also debunked this one.  So 2 of the 3 more popular and accurate fact checkers have debunked it.  Politifact is probably looking for how they can spin it but they to will probably debunk it.


Let's see how long this story will continue to be promoted before we turn this into a "what kind of Christian are you" thread.

Thank G-d I can duck when that happens!   :woot:

Ah, hope springs eternal!  Desperation one moment, dreaming the next.   :dunno:

Now she's dreaming that Obama is still running against McCain.
You're dreaming that the Republican economic track record will go away. Keep dreaming.


And Pelosi/Reid did what exactly to correct this track record after 4 years of complete legislative control to include two years of executive branch control?
Pelosi in particular took all that off the table, so she must be a hero to Republicans. She isn't to sane Democrats. IMHO, both parties suck bilgewater.

She "took it off the table" by losing 63 seats in the 2010 election!

Revisionist history.  Pelosi took it off the table the moment she BECAME speaker.

No wonder--you took out my part of the response in your quotes.

I repeat: Nancy Pelosi took impeachment off the table the day she was sworn in as the new Speaker.

I did not.  I quoted your post exactly.  And where did the subject of impeachment come from?  I hadn't seen that word pop up earlier in the thread.

Does anyone remember the papa Bush/Dukakis and the Bush/ Kerry presidential races and what the Republicans did to the Democratic candidates. if you do then you're looking at the mirror image in the Obama/Romney presidential race. It's taken a long time but the Democrats have finally learned to give back to the Republicans what they gave to the Democrats in 1988 and 2004. The Republicans  make a hero look bad and a coward look like a hero and another Democrat look weak on Incarceration of known criminals, when he had been a strong Governor and was reelected for 3 terms of Mass, while Romney was only elected to one.  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.

Your memory is a little selective, kentay.  [Surprise!]  Willie Horton wasn't the invention of Papa Bush, the Willie issue was dreamed up by Algore in the Democratic primary, Bush 41 just copied it, so don't act so sanctimonious, as if the pure-as-the-driven-snow Democrats are finally copying the filthy Republicans.  What a joke!  Why do you try to put over junk like that?

I remember how Lee Atwater before he died ask everyone to forgive him for what he did during the 1988 election. I forgave him and pray that god forgives him too for admitting his dirty tricks and seeking redemption. Isn't it amazing how differently we all feel about our lives when we look death in the eye. kentay
