SEC Documents Indicate Romney Committed Perjury

http://current.com/s...ecrets-and-lies

Political junkies are abuzz today with the latest Romney flip-flop, but this time it’s a little more serious. This morning, The Boston Globe reported that although Romney has said that he retired from Bain Capital in 1999, SEC filings by Bain claim that Romney remained the “sole shareholder, sole director, Chief Executive Officer and President” of Bain until 2002. And we’ve got the documents to show it.

Check out this excerpt from Romney’s 2001 Public Financial Disclosure Report, which he signed.




Now, check out this bit from the Securities and Exchange commission document filed by Bain Capital in 2002, signed by Romney:




So which is it? Did Romney lie to the American people about having left Bain three years before he actually did or did he lie to the SEC when he signed the 2001 filings? The Boston Globe stated that the discrepancy is important because “[Romney] has said his resignation in February 1999 meant he was not responsible for Bain Capital companies that went bankrupt or laid off workers after that date” and because Bain is the main source of Romney’s wealth.

The answer might be in the details. Politico published a statement from Bain Capital this afternoon:

“Mitt Romney left Bain Capital in February 1999 … Due to the sudden nature of Mr. Romney’s departure, he remained the sole stockholder for a time while formal ownership was being documented and transferred to the group of partners who took over management of the firm in 1999″

Which, apparently, is why Romney’s name is on the SEC filings three years after he “retired.”

Discrepant details or not, this is not good news for Romney. Lying to the SEC is considered a felony; lying to American voters is, well, just not right.

Romney Guilty of Perjury and Felony Lying to the Federal Government!

***WILLARD "MITT" ROMNEY THE LIAR NAILED BY HIS OWN TESTIMONY!***

This is BIG folks! Willard has repeatedly said that he left Bain [Vulture] Capital in February 1999, and that he was too busy organizing the 2002 Olympics top be involved in Bain.

NOW HE'S BEEN PROVEN A LIAR BY HIS OWN TESTIMONY!

Check out the story here:

Mitt Romney's repeated claim that he played no part in executive decision-making related to Bain after 1999 is false, according to Romney's own testimony in June 2002, in which he admitted to sitting on the board of the Lifelike Co., a doll maker that was a Bain investment during the period.


Romney has consistently insisted that he was too busy organizing the 2002 Winter Olympics to take part in Bain business between 1999 and that event. But in the testimony, which was provided to The Huffington Post, Romney noted that he regularly traveled back to Massachusetts. "[T]here were a number of social trips and business trips that brought me back to Massachusetts, board meetings, Thanksgiving and so forth," he said. 


Romney's sworn testimony was given as part of a hearing to determine whether he had sufficient residency status in Massachusetts to run for governor. 


Romney testified that he "remained on the board of the Staples Corporation and Marriott International, the Life Like Corporation" at the time.


Yet in the Aug. 12, 2011, federal disclosure form filed as part of his presidential bid, he said, "Mr. Romney retired from Bain Capital on February 11, 1999 to head the Salt Lake Organizing Committee. Since February 11, 1999, Mr. Romney has not had any active role with any Bain Capital entity and has not been involved in the operations of any Bain Capital entity in any way."


Perjury! Felony lying to the Federal Government! If Willard was still actively managing Bain as late as 2002, that he means he was ACTIVELY involved in:

Mitt admitted that he worked for Bain for 25 years. 1977 + 25 = 2002 I guess he didn't think people could add.


--OUTSOURCING AMERICAN JOBS TO CHINA
--APPROVING AN INVESTMENT IN A COMPANY THAT DISPOSED OF ABORTED FETUSES
--DESTROYING MORE AMERICAN COMPANIES AND AMERICAN JOBS.


Read the whole thing, and then SPREAD IT AROUND!


Let's wring Willard's political neck with this!
