These are the same people that said Mitt Romney was ineligible to run for Governor in 2004 because by taking over the Olympics he became a resident of Utah!

This was debunked by Factcheck.org about three hours ago. Try to keep up Politico.

Mitt Romney either lied

Speechless. Where have they been the last 3+ years?
Seriously. NOW they're concerned about lies? Why the change of heart?

From the article:

Deputy campaign manager Stephanie Cutter laid out the issue as the Obama team sees it: “Either Mitt Romney, through his own words and his own signature, was misrepresenting his position at Bain to the SEC, which is a felony." "Or," she said, "he was misrepresenting his position at Bain to the American people to avoid responsibility for some of the consequences of his investments,” including layoffs and the outsourcing of jobs.

The only thing more tortured than the logic of the charge is the writing of the author of the article. Really, two paragraphs for on sentence.

Then, at the end of the article is this quote:

People who interacted with Romney at Bain between 1999 and 2002 -- and who would corroborate the storyline suggested by the SEC filings -- haven't emerged. Nor have documents or other details that would suggest Romney has been lying about when he left the company. But, Bauer hinted, there might be new developments to come. “I would stay very much tuned on that,” he said.

This is a great example of why politico is little more than a mouthpiece for the dem party.

Clearly, this is FAR MORE serious than lying to the American people about being a Natural Born Citizen and, therefore, eligible to be POTUS and presenting 3 forged BCs to try to back it up!!

It is obvious that zero says stuff without EVER looking in the mirror!!

They haven't been right about the guy yet! Everything they've hit him with as turned out to be false. Geeeze. Do they just make this stuff up as they go along, or what?
