Presidential hopeful Mitt Romney built his $250 million fortune with the help of two of Britain's most disreputable business figures - Guinness fraudster Jack Lyons and crooked newspaper boss Robert Maxwell. In the 1980s both men invested large sums in the Republican candidate's first private equity fund, started during his years at Bain & Company, which launched his now highly controversial career in finance.

“How Mitt Romney’s $250m fortune was built by two of England’s most disreputable business figures”
Tony Rezco and Blago?
Oh. I thought maybe he got his fortune through bootlegging. Oh. Wait. I guess that was THE KENNEDYS!
OK. OK. OK. ... He gained his fortunes by being a gigolo and marrying two rich bitches. Oh. Wait. That was JOHN KERRY!
Never mind.
this is a propaganda hit piece as anyone can see
But, as so many wonderful things resulted, like Camelot, etc., nothing to compare, so move along, nothing here (ever) to see ...
Yah think?
As obvious as it is to some of us, it no doubt sends a "thrill up the legs" of the handful of Mitt and Mormon HATERS who will show up in 5, 4, 3, 2....to add their special delusional, diatribe to the mix.
Guilt by association, and from a British tabloid? Weak. Notice how they mention the murders and other salacious details of the two men’s lives, as if they have anything to do with Romney’s.
It would be racist to notice Rezko and Soros, etc., in Ubama’s background.
György Schwartz? No, that’s Obama...
How do passive investors “build” a fund’s success?
Hmmm. (Yawn) Investments associated with crooks. How about that?
November 3, 1998. The year we almost got rid of him, but 8,113 voters took the time to travel to the polls only to vote “None of these candidates.” Thus Harry Reid won his senate race by 401 votes.

Business can be ugly and you deal with ugly people. When all you have ever done is flap your gums and never run a business then you are Hussein Obama. Clean as a whistle as far as this goes..
Obama has rarely worked in the dreaded competitive private sector. He is a creature of Gov’t and NGOs and universities. Last time he ever did real work was as a teenager in Hawaii. Working at Baskin Robbins and as he tells it giving his friends free scoops
