Boy, this is tinfoil hat stuff. Bain purchased 20% of Series B convertible preferred stock as an investment a couple of years ago. Edgar also has common stock and a series C conv-pref. Bain owns none of either of those. Bain does not own Edgar, they just have some 11.4% coupon prefs. Nice coupon, btw.

Edgar filings are all done via computer. No one at Edgar sees the data in the filings before they are filed w/ the SEC. To believe that an investor in one of Edgar's stocks or debts would be able to see that data is ludicrous.

Boy, this is tinfoil hat stuff.

Newt is dead to me. I am finished with this fat lifetime bureaucrat who was one of only 18 Republicans (all the rest Rockefeller types) who voted for the Dept. of Education in 1978 (it only passed by 5 votes). He was best friends with Alvin Toffler and promoted his book that called for the scrapping of the U.S. Constitution and its replacement with a more "efficient" world government. And HE is going to lecture us on conservatism? Newt is NOT a conservative. He says FDR was the best Prez of the 20th Century. He calls himself a "realpolitik Wilsonian". Woodrow Wilson? Do I really need to go into him?

Newt himself served on the board of LBO firm Fortsmann Little, which is Bain Capital on steroids, which makes him a total hypocrite on this "vulture capitalism" stuff. So if he became the nominee, Obama would use these same sorts of attacks on HIM. All pressure should come to bear for this phony to leave the race, and join with Bachmann, Perry and Cain to endorse Santorum - our last hope at derailing the vile Mittens.
