All this noise is about Romney at Bain, 1999 to 2002. But even beyond that (and the laughable claim, if nothing else, that he “left” Bain in 1999), there are his pre-1999 investments in offshoring, and his trying to hide said investments in shell companies in the Caribbean.

To say nothing of his evading tax by being paid in artificially-low valued shares which subsequently “miraculously” matured into multi-million dollar investments.

The guy’s a crook through and through.

It’s just business as usual.

The only difference is that he’s under scrutiny because he’s running for office, and due to a certain recent worldwide economic meltdown, the phrase “successful business man” just doesn’t have the positive ring it used to.
