Group targets Mitt’s role in ’02 Olympics

"A group of Utah business people who sat on the
2002 Salt Lake City Olympic committee have
formed a “truth squad” aimed at
criticizing former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney
for trumpeting his role in rescuing the troubled games ...

"... the group’s members — many of whom helped
select Romney to chair the Games — are preparing a full-on assault."

who were involved in the process for a decade and a half view it"

Nonsense. The SLC committee was rife with corruption. Mitt brought the games to a successful closing. Would that have happened anyway? Perhaps.

He always thinks its his turn. It stems from his days of watching the civil rights marches. LOL
