I will answer the questions for you:

1) According to Wikipedia.com MR stopped making investment decisions for Bain Capital in February 1999. According to Wikipedia.com: “ He did not involve himself in day-to-day operations of the firm or investment decisions for Bain Capital...”

2) When did Bain invest in Stericycle? According to the Huffingtonpost.com: “Bain’s $75 million investment in the company was announced in August and finalized in November of 1999.” The Huffingtonpost article further states:

“There is no publicly available data showing that either Romney or other officials at Bain knew of Stericycle’s work with Planned Parenthood and abortion clinics before the investment.”

3)When did Stericycle begin the practice of picking up aborted human remains? According to lifenews.com: “ The Stop Stericycle campaign lists documents showing contracts and other information linking the business with abortion clinics. The first document offered as proof comes in 2003”.

So there we have it the time line.

To summarize: MR took his leave of absence from Bain in February 1999 to head the Winter Olympics and played no role in its investment decisions from that point. Bain invested in Stericycle in August of that year. There is no documentation of Stericycle removing aborted human remains prior to 2003.

In your eagerness to implicate MR has being directly involved in the business of abortion you conveniently omitted many key facts as well as the timeline of events.

Sorry to annoy you with the facts.

Your “facts” are false.

Sophisticated Romney lying spin.

1) He still owned the company. Any talk of him not being involved in decision-making is pure nonsense, only to be believed by the irretrievably naive. He was the responsible party, period.

2) The idea that he wasn’t aware of what a company he was investing $75 million dollars in did strains credibility far beyond the breaking point.

3) Again, LifeNews exists to provide cover for the compromised fake Republicans who work hard to pass themselves off as “pro-life” when they are nothing of the sort.

As I showed you far back up this thread, Stericycle was taken to task years before the times in question for “improperly” disposing of the remains of murdered babies.

“The Mother Jones story itself, however, cited public OSHA violations by Stericycle from 1991 — well before the Bain investment — which included improperly keeping ‘body parts, fetuses, and dead experimental animals in unmarked storage containers, placing workers at risk.’”

Sorry to annoy you with facts.
