Your position:
Romney ran Bain.
Bain invested in Stericycle.
Stericycle was involved is handled aborted babies.
Romney was therefore involved "in this sordid business.”

Reality:
Bain acquired an interest in Stericycle, a medical-waste disposal business, in late 1999.
Romney may or may not have had input on investments after February 1999 (Romney is challenging the story posted earlier).
Bain Capital said recently that Romney had no involvement in management or investment activities since February 1999.
In April 1999, Romney was quoted as saying he was working 16-hour days, 7 days a week, running the Salt Lake Olympic Committee.
No one thus far has shown Stericycle was handling aborted babies at that time.
No one thus far has shown Romney was involved in making the Bain deal.
No one thus far has shown Romney knew Stericycle was involved in disposing of aborted babies at the time the Bain deal was made.

I don't need to show that Stericycle waited until Bain sold its interest. I don't even think that's right, as I believe Bain sold in 2004 and the first mention of Stericycle and abortion was in 2003. What I am saying is that I prefer reality to fantasy.

Listen, anybody can create imaginary doubts about anything. Let me suggest another one to add to your list: “How do we know that it’s not a different Mitt Romney?” Let’s see someone prove that!!

As we discussed in earlier posts, Romney tried to deceive us when he wanted us to believe he was done with Bain in 1999. That’s the point of these articles all over the news today. Obviously, he doesn’t need your help to make up facts.

If he’s got an exculpatory explanation for all this, Romney can and will hold a press conference and get it behind him. If he doesn’t, well, then he just doesn’t.

And, remember, not all Republicans are conservative and not all Republicans are opposed to abortion He still has his liberal base.
