Obama's 2012 ad: Solyndra isn't Bain Capital
Politico ^ | 1/19/12 | DARREN SAMUELSOHN and GLENN THRUSH |

Posted on 01/19/2012 3:46:31 PM PST by Nachum

President Barack Obama’s first paid TV ad of the 2012 campaign had one basic purpose, Democrats say: to ensure that Solyndra doesn’t become the Bain of the president’s existence.

Typically, the kickoff ad in a presidential reelection campaign has a gauzy, upbeat, “Morning in America” vibe. Not this one — it was a pointed response to a $6 million ad campaign, paid for by the Koch brothers-linked nonprofit group Americans for Prosperity, which hits Obama on the semi-scandal surrounding the now-defunct, government-subsidized maker of solar power components.

It’s clear Obama’s campaign staff in Chicago sees the Solyndra attacks as a real threat in 2012, and wants to define the narrative before the Koch brothers harden public opinion against Obama. Fairly or not, the issue is likely to be a centerpiece of anti-Obama attacks — it offers both the whiff of scandal and an object lesson on the perceived evils of big-government overreach under an activist Democratic president.

I have to agree that this is stupid. Obama and Co have left themselves wide open for criticism. There is no comparison with a successful private company and a failed government sponsored enterprise.

What does that have to do with anything? Romney left Bain Capital in February 1999.

semi-scandal

I would laugh if it weren't deadly serious. The fact that a rock with the word about which even the WaPo article says "In an earlier time, the name on the rock was often given to mountains and creeks and rock outcroppings across the country". is a full-blown scandal, equating to Rick Perry's being a racist, but Solyndra is a semi-scandal. Perry rented some land to use for hunting a couple of times in his life and he's a racist because of a rock with an offensive word which his father painted over a decade before and which had also been turned over. Can we say "macaca?"

The left has destroyed every viable Republican candidate one by one. This is a warning to anyone who even thinks of running for President as a conservative. The left has probably been searching archives and trash bags for years. As Secy of State does Hillary now have access to ALL FBI files instead of just the 900 she got in the nineties?

“What does that have to do with anything? Romney left Bain Capital in February 1999.”

BS. Where are you getting your news?

He didn’t leave, he took a leave of absence in 1999.

In 2001 he gave up control of voting stock. “The divestiture had no financial ramifications, Romney said, affecting only the management and control of the company.”

Romney Plans to Pursue Public Service - SLOC boss won’t return to business after Games; Romney Plans to Pursue Public Service
Salt Lake Tribune, The (UT) - Tuesday, August 21, 2001
Author: MIKE GORRELL, THE SALT LAKE TRIBUNE

EXCERPT

The transition was ensured when Romney informed the 26 managing directors of Bain Capital recently that he was “going limited.” That meant he no longer intended to resume his duties as managing partner and chief executive of the company, which started or took part in 140 corporate acquisitions since 1984 and has more than $12 billion in assets.

In doing so, he gave up control over all of Bain Capital’s voting stock, dividing the shares between the two dozen directors. The divestiture had no financial ramifications, Romney said, affecting only the management and control of the company.

EXCERPT

Romney took a leave of absence in 1999 as chief executive officer of Bain Capital Inc. to take the helm at SLOC.

Bain is one of the nation’s biggest private equity firms with 26 partners.

Earlier this year, Huntsman Corp. announced a deal in which Bain invested more than $600 million in the Salt Lake City-based chemical company.

Under terms of the deal, Bain gained a minority equity stake in Huntsman Corp., which assured the deal had nothing to do with Romney .

Solyndra isn't Bain Capital

They lead off with their weakness. Of course it isn't Bain. It's a direct government ripoff of the people designed to throw away a half-billion dollars on nonsense.

Yes, Glenn. It was a little, tiny semi-scandal. What’s a half billIon dollars among friends and political supporters? And it was very nice and obedient of you to mention the Koch brothers repeatedly an article that has nothing to do with them. Good boy, Glenn.
