Comments on: Romney Campaign Claims He Retired Retroactively (But Kept All of the Profits) http://www.politicususa.com/romney-campaign-claims-retired-retroactively-but-profits.html Real Liberal Politics Wed, 22 May 2013 20:10:01 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=189 By: get real http://www.politicususa.com/romney-campaign-claims-retired-retroactively-but-profits.html#comment-199263 get real Mon, 16 Jul 2012 07:26:33 +0000 http://www.politicususa.com/?p=84149#comment-199263 What part of ‘CEO, Chairman, President and sole stockholder’ does Willard Mitt Romney not understand?

If he doesn’t even know that, he should automatically be disqualified from even running for President of the United States. By definition.

Any jobs that were moved out of the country due to those decisions should be moved back. Any money made by Mitt during this retirement period should be returned to Bain, along with interest this money has earned. Then, and only then, will I believe Mitt might be telling the truth.

How stupid do they think we are? Retired retroactively? What does that even mean? It completely defies logic! Is he implying that he was effectively retired – i.e. not participating in the day-to-day operation of Bain Capital – but just didn’t get around to making it official for three years? If so, then why did he continue to draw a salary and why did the company continue to tell the SEC that he was still in charge in every meaningful way?

The answer to all this is pretty simple: Mitt wants to have it both ways, and his entire life experience tells him that he absolutely can. Hopefully the voters won’t let him get away with it.
