COMPLETE TITLE

BREAKING: Palin Urges Romney to Release Tax Returns, Provide Proof of 100,000 Jobs Created at Bain Capital

###

Former Republican vice-presidential candidate Sarah Palin has called for Gov. Mitt Romney to release his tax returns, as well as the data that could substantiate his claim of having created 100,000 jobs as CEO of Bain Capital.

Romney has resisted releasing his tax returns, and his campaign has thus far refused to provide the hard proof to back up his claims about Bain.

“Governor Romney has claimed to have created 100,000 jobs at Bain, and people are wanting to know: is there proof?” Palin told Sean Hannity on Fox News.

*snip*

Earlier this week, Big Government pointed out that Romney’s claim to have created 100,000 jobs contrasts with claims he made during his 1994 U.S. Senate campaign, when he claimed to have created 10,000 jobs at Bain. Romney retired from Bain Capital in 1999.

Palin said that Romney needed to come clean about his record, given the likelihood that Democrats would probe the tax issue and Romney’s tenure at Bain if he were to become the Republican nominee.

The former Alaska governor also told Hannity that she did not think it was inevitable that Romney would become the Republican nominee.

I know it’s dated the 11th. I did a search here.
Nothing came up. If it’s a duplicate that’s hiding
somewhere with a different title, let me know.

[Jane Long]

Is this from a few days ago? Or has she repeated the request? Just checking.

[Utmost Certainty]

It’d be cool if we didn’t preface old news with misleading title headers like “BREAKING:”.

[basil]

I hadn’t seen it before now, so thank’s for posting it.

I really wish Mrs. Palin would have thrown her hat in the ring.......

[fkabuckeyesrule]

I was just thinking that if its fair to blame Bush for everything that happens years after he’s left office then it should also be fair for Romney to that credit for jobs created after he may have left bain Capital.

[Allon]

This is “breaking”?

[nhwingut]

Breaking news... from 5 days ago. LOL!

Palin Urges Romney To Release Tax Returns, Etc.

[Christie at the beach]

I saw her in this interview days ago when she was defending Rick Perry and Newt. She was trying to help out with the confusion/ the damage from talk radio, I do believe.

[Psalm 144]

I expect the corporates at Fox are going to make things hard for her. That network was lockstep for the Distinction Without a Difference in 2008 as well.

It’s easy to imagine there would be a whole lot more unity behind Sarah than what we’ve got now. She is a force..despite the attempts to destroy her by the left and the country club RINO establishment.

Romney retired from Bain Capital in 1999.

I keep reading that he left in '99. Where did that come from? Did he sell Bain? Because I found this. Look at the date.

The following is an excerpt from a S-1 SEC Filing, filed by NETLIBRARY INC on 8/17/2000.

If romney wins, I think a Conservative will run third party, hopefully Sarah

[greeneyes]

Did you check out the Big Hollywood video of Cobert’s satire on mittens? Calls Romney “Jack The Ripper” and urges to vote for the not-Romney.

[matthew fuller]

So much for her VP slot under Romeny.

On Judge Janine or whatever her name is - last night after the huck forum, sarah said it was unfortunate that the republican party was making such a big thing out of the bain thing, and that EVERYTHING should be on the table, and we should look at everything about the candidates, and it was a legitimate form of inquiry. She also said willard should release his tax records. And today, Newt said he was releasing his tax records on Thursday. And she also said one of the reasons she hasn’t endorsed anyone was because she was very controversial and didn’t want to harm anyone’s candidacy, which made me wonder if Todd’s endorsement of Gingrich was a proxy for her.. I have never thought of Todd as someone who cared about endorsing anyone... I think sarah was sending a message and most people didn’t get it - or I am just looking at it weirdlly..
