2002 Romney touted that he knew how to get money out of the federal government

I was waiting for this one.
Saw it earlier. How much you want to bet they brush this under the rug too?

ROMBO can do no wrong in their eyes

“They” being Media,establishment and mushy scared repubs

And how is he different than that today?

He’s as much if not more of an insider imo.

The grease in his hair is oil-logging his brain.

He got the largest ever bail-out for the Salt Lake City Olympics:

“Most U.S. tax dollars per athlete. Federal spending for the Salt Lake City Games will average $625,000 for each of the 2,400 athletes who will compete. (Not a penny of it will go to the athletes.) That’s a 996% increase from the $57,000 average for the 1996 Atlanta Olympics. It’s a staggering 5,582% jump from the $11,000 average for the 1984 Summer Games in Los Angeles.”

“And for the upcoming 2002 Winter Olympics in Salt Lake City, the estimated cost to American taxpayers is 1.3 billion dollars. That’s outrageous Mr. President. And it’s a disgrace,” McCain said. (2001)

Romney has a history of surviving poor decision-making by gulping down federal largesse. He’s built up an impressive mythology about someone who makes things work.”

BAIN – Bain Capital was also beneficiary of US taxpayer dollar BAILOUT – http://thenewamerican.com/usnews/politics/10538-romneys-skeletons-his-bain-capital-received-millions-in-bailouts

ROMNEY STEEL COMPANY PROFITS COST TAXPAYER – As this report says, Romney does have a skeleton in the closet, and it involves federal funds.
“What’s more, a federal government insurance agency had to pony up $44 million to bail out the company’s underfunded pension plan. Nevertheless, Bain profited on the deal, receiving $12 million on its $8 million initial investment and at least $4.5 million in consulting fees.”

“Mitt Romney says he saved Bain & Company, but he didn’t tell you that on the day he took over, he had his predecessor fire hundreds of employees, or that the way the company was rescued was with a federal bailout of $10 million,” notes the narrator in Sen. Kennedy’s unreleased ad as pictures of newspaper articles fill the screen. “He and others made $4 million in this deal which cost ordinary people $10 million.”

Romney came from Bain & Co. to create Bain Capital. Bain Capital, in turn, pulled a ‘leveraged buyout’ of Bain & Co. — the monster child turning on its mother and eating its own.
Here’s an interview with a Venture Capitalist discussing Bain … http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pmrEUHdwAwQ&feature=youtu.be
The interviewee was chairman of the Texas Workforce Commission and head of the Republican Party of Texas. He was in the venture capital business for 6 years after leaving the Reagan administration.
He very clearly explains why Mitt Romney is *not* a job creator, but that what Bain did actually killed jobs, and the difference between venture capital and leveraged buyout companies like Bain, Michael Milken, and Steve Schwartzman. It is not complicated and is easy to understand.

Romney will get crushed by the MSM over Bain. He is the founding father of the “private equity” Wall Street scam. They take over a company and inflate its short-term profits by laying off workers, cutting pensions and selling assets. They then take out huge loans in the acquired firm’s name and immediately transfer the money as “dividends” and “fees” to Bain capital. If the now deeply debt-ridden acquired firm goes bankrupt, Bain gets to keep all that money as it is untouchable in bankruptcy proceedings. Bain socializes their losses to banks, pension insurers, etc. and privatizes their gains in the same kind of Wall Street con job that led to the mortgage crisis. Bain donates to Democrats and keeps the laws in place to allow this to go on. Nominate Romney and you will see all of this exposed by the liberal media in the fall. He is a classic Wall Street crook and will become unelectable. If he did win, you can only expect the collusion between big government and Wall Street to become deeper and more endemic, driving the nation further into bankruptcy.

More: FTD deal (1994-95) that was essentially a hostile buyout forced on the 20,000 members in writing as a “MERGER” but was actually and legally a SECRETLY held Public Auction that ripped off its members, and was a very questionable legal transaction that was not tested in the courts but was DEFINITELY, morally and ethically, of the lowest caliber. Mitt’s knowledge, participation, and or influence, needs an explanation, with NO platitudes or non sequiturs. The first dots to connect are Meg Whitman and Perry Capital NY. The dots will lead to the money, hundreds of millions.

There is more, much more….Medicare fraud, the largest on record.

Then there is the lying… about being a conservative when he governed left of Ted Kennedy and most Democrats. Lies on stage in front of millions of viewers in the debates. Lies in ads. Nasty smears… dirty politics… 2008 was as bad as 2012.

The only use for Romney in a conservative Republican administration would be as a ruthless government agency down-sizer, because he is very experienced in shutting down and gutting businesses and as he says, he loves to fire people.

Guess we won’t be seeing this video with a headline and an unbecoming photo of Mitt splashed on Drudge the day before Super Tuesday.

He is so dull on the campaign trail but when it comes to the taxpayer’s money, can you see the excitement and animation in his eyes? “Yippee! We just hit the motherload!”

Two of the biggest advantages the R’s have is health care and unbridled spending. So we are supposed to elect the one least able to distance himself from either.

Praying Rick and Newt keep getting their message out.

Check it out: Mitt Romney wrote an op-ed USA Today in July 2009 telling the President to use the individual mandate. http://www.buzzfeed.com/andrewkaczynski/mitt-romneys-advice-for-obamacare-look-at-romney

DC INSIDERRRRRRR

That DC money was used to pay off Michigan , Florida, and IOWA…and probably every da#n state Romney had traction in …..to grease for Open Primaries, and strong arm people….. Maybe he used it to donate to Nikki Haley etc..

Game Over

Bill Paxson

We’re Not in the Mushroom Kingdom , Anymore Mario

Game Over Lil Flip

I know Super Tuesday hasn’t happened yet. But I want ROMNEY to GTFO

Hope there are more videos of Romney surfacing over the weekend!!!

Gosh folks!!! This is like the Fractured Fairytales cartoon when Mr. Peabody opens his closet door and everything just spills out in a heap. Where is all this coming from? Is it opposition research coming from the conservative side or is this dirt dug up and fed by Obama’s people? All of a sudden, it appears to be a cornucopia of dirt about Romney precisely at the right time prior to Super Tuesday. Think it’s probably us as Obama would like to keep some of his powder dry if Romney is nominated.
