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 don’t think he will release anything now. He moved himself back stage so that the Benghazi emails could be in the spotlight. It was the right thing to do out of respect for the four lives lost.
This is old news that has come up every time she has engaged lawyers to get more money. Old, old pitiful accusations.
The Dems are truly shameful.
the records for this case have been sealed, and participants are unable to discuss them.
Okay, so which is it? Is she unable to discuss it and if so why is she?
yea, I am sure nothing is there, but this lady is a kook, she is going to try her damndest to bring him into the mud.
I have no other course, but to vote for Obama!
These leftists are such douche bags.
Not necessarily. If All Red's charges are shown to be trivial and the press does not run with them, then there is no need to go nuclear on Obama and risk generating a backlash.
Isn’t it fascinating this woman, apparently a virulent hater of Mitt and Ann Romney (who btw also has MS), thinks Romney committed perjury. Yet with all her lawyers and money in this case, the judge obviously didn’t think Romney committed perjury.
I hate liberals and their bs. At some point long after this divorce, I gather the husband no longer was responsible for his rich ex wife’s healthcare. So?
They also like to say Romney testified, and then “weeks after the divorce case ended” the husband made a lot of money on his stock. Sounds like Romney testified then cashed in a week later, but I think the divorce went on for years. Years later they took the company public.
Just stupid.
Current TV is a disgrace. Most people who are on it are certifiable. I accidentally clicked it on a few times, and the programs were outside the realm of normalcy and sanity. Sure hate to think that there are a few people who actually watch this and believe the programming to be honest and true.
Ummm. Wouldn’t a lesser valuation lead to MORE shares of stock being included in a divorce settlement.
Then again, when to idiot liberals ever pass Math 101?
If (and it’s a big if) Trump has anything, it’s almost certainly related to the documents he challenged Obama to release, not a divorce filing.
More likely, Trump is trying just to make himself useful by applying his own penchant for attention-whoring to overshadow Allred’s similar, but less-well-honed vanity.
Yes, that is Algor.
He’s still chasing ManBearPig together with PedoBear, I think.
Trump had nothing, it was just an offer to donate 5 million to a charity if Obama gave up all his papers.
Obama has used more than that just to hide his BC. Stupid idiot Trump stunt.
There’s just something about Obama in trouble leading to sealed divorce records being made public....
Now just where the heck have I heard that one before???
And... she wants TV to air a movie about her life. Perhaps Gloria will also be in the movie.
Trump made his announcement before debate three, contributing to O’Zero’s unease that night as he wondered what out of his past had gotten loose. Doing the $5 million dollar offer was a great business move. It will have the Libs wondering what is there that he won’t take the money for charity.
Heard that during the trial he stated that the Staples stock was over priced or overvalued or something in order to deny the ex any money from it and then when it went public............surprise, it was more valuable than stated. What a shocker huh? According to the dems, I guess she’s lucky that he didn’t cause her to get cancer and die. What a bunch of losers, liars and thieves.
Saw Mitt in Reno today. Great crowd. Some code pinkos on the way in worrying about him not providing mamograms or something. They were ignored by everybody.
Helping keep mankind warm for 65 years.
The Boston Globe is joining hands with its parent comoany the NYT to seek the delicious nuggets Ms. Allred promises is in the sealed records.
That’s why we read the Herald.
the woman's a nut.
She obviously thinks she looks regal like Obama when she does the chin in the air thing.
I bet you they are actually hoping the judge would rule against it.
