Mitt Romney has been implicated in a complex case involving perjury, stock manipulation, and possibly consumer fraud.
Mitt Romney lied in the divorce proceedings of his wealthy friend, Tom Stemberg, founder of Staples, according to a story by radaronline.com. At least that is what Stemberg's former wife, Maureen, says. She is a MS patient who says her husband was so vindictive he even cut off her health insurance. Unfortunately the records for this case have been sealed, and participants are unable to discuss them. Other forces are in motion to lift the gag order.
It is a matter of public record that Mitt Romney went on the stand claiming that Staples as a business was "overvalued." He also specifically said:
I didn't place a great deal of credibility in the forecast of the company's future.
Because of Romney's testimony the court valued the corporation at a paltry percentage of its actual worth, and Maureen Stemberg was granted a tiny settlement.
Meanwhile, weeks after the divorce was finalized, Mitt Romney and his buddy Tom Stemberg sold their shares of Staples to Goldman Sachs and made millions in the process.
This is a case in a long line of cases that show a side of Mitt Romney's business ethics that he does not want the American people to know about.
I suppose you’re right - why risk a backlash at this point...hmmm
Yawn. He-said, she-said. Hey, anyone can claim just about anything. If there wasn't some points of contention there would not have been a divorce, court proceedings, etc. I'd be more suspicious if people came out of any court case, any divorce, and weren't angry and bitter and claiming the other side lied.
Makes MSNBC look like Huntley-Brinckley.
Another Dan Rather special report..........
This is one bitter hateful divorcee - no wonder the husband moved on.
The lawyer has a blood sucking leech for a client and the client has a blood sucking leech for a lawyer.
“OH MY GOD, this is 1000% times worst than the killing of a simple American Ambassador and 3 other Americans in Libya, quick all a Seante investigation into this matter——sarc!”
The Old Media will certainly deem it more newsworthy than Libya. It’s biggest value to the dems and the Old Media will be pushing Libya out of the news cycle.
And wouldn't Ms. Allred just be twinkling and prancing if she got a part in Stemberg’s movie?
What a lot of vermin they are.
if freepers think Current TV is lefty...and it is
they should try:
LINK TV and FSTV....Free Speech TV
both on DISH
we are talking Mother Jones lefties...red diaper babies...Vanessa Regrave...Van Jones
far far left
David Corn is a Bircher to these nuts
I watch them to entertain myself
this is what the FARC watches...Sendero TV
Unfortunately, there are a lot of divorced women in this country who will only listen to the victimhood of the the ex-wife. Their bitter hearts will go out to her.
the ex is a classy lady - she likes to ‘tweet’ (as if anyone would possibly be interested in what SHE has to say)and there are hundreds of tweets you can view where she makes disparaging remarks about Mormons...there’s a whole list of nasty tweets about Romney’s debates and speeches, where she beseeches her fellow libtards to ‘save their president’....she’s a nasty nutty libtard.
I’d worry more if Current were an actual news outlet.
I have only been paying a passive amount of attention to this story. Gloria is not to be denied attention so it was a hard to miss story. But what struck me is that if the case was sealed, did that act not require the agreement of both parties? Gloria made it political which actually diminishes the claims of the ex-wife.
But somebody who states that Mitt Romney is 'implicated in perjury and stock fraud' is making accusations without any foundation.
Rich liberals are the most covetous bunch on God's green earth.
I just read it too. Here’s the link and spread it around (http://www.bobkrumm.com/blog/)
Instead of giving that 5 million bucks to BO, I wish Trump would use to dig up dirt on Gloria. A person with her standards and morale standards probably has huge skeletons in her closet.
Please Donald help us rid the world of this dirt bag lawyer. There’s got to be pictures of her doing something crazy with four men at the same time or money laundering or taking kick-backs....Heck, maybe you can just pay someone to invent a scandal like she does.
In any case, there’s just got to be something to hold over her head whenever she pops out of her hole. She destroyed Meg Whitman, Hermann Cain, and even got Tiger Woods to write a big check (who admittedly wsn’t a very symathetic person). It’s payback time, Donald.
You got a link to that Bob Krumm thing or could you elaborate?
These tweets will undoubtedly come out to besmirch her character.
I am angry that I have to pay for Current TV on Direct TV. Ugh! It is terrible and I only accidentally saw it one night for 1 minute!
(1) The AP reported she received 500,000 shares of Staples, Inc., of which she sold 250,000 prior to the IPO. Had she held those shares another 4 years, to 2005, her stake would have been worth $5.2 million.
(2) If she felt that Romney had purposely undervalued the entity prior to an private placement, underwriting or public offering, she was well within her rights to sue at that time. Why didn't she do that - 21 years ago? Far too late now.
