Romney Led Bain's Investment in Firm That Disposed of Aborted Fetuses
The Atlantic Wire ^ | July 2, 2012 | Elspeth Reeve

Posted on 07/02/2012 10:59:19 AM PDT by van_erwin

David Corn has a report out this morning that pushes the continuing attacks on Mitt Romney's tenure at Bain Capital forward not just because of the business it involves — disposing of aborted fetuses — but because it extends the length of time he worked at Bain. According to Securities and Exchange Commission documents, Romney was involved in Bain's investment in a company called Stericycle in late 1999. What did Stericycle do? Well, it was a fast-growing, profitable medical waste company. But it also had some problems, such as getting fined for keeping body parts and dead animals in unmarked containers or exposing workers to tuberculosis. And then there were the fetuses. Romney now describes himself as "adamantly pro-life" now but embraced pro-choice positions on abortion in the late 1990s and early 2000s. Back when Bain was involved with Stericycle, anti-abortion activists have waged a campaign against the company.

But that revelation may not be the most significant part of Corn's report (conservatives who aren't wild about Romney's conservative credentials aren't making much noise now that Romney is the Republican nominee). The most damaging part may be the dates.

Corn should spend his time more productively...like digging up Obama’s school records.

I guess it’s shocking, in a way, but I really haven’t been expecting any more than this out of Romney. The other I day suggested that after he loses in November, he might do just about anything, including operate a chain of abortion clinics. I didn’t know about the facts in this story at the time.

Romney is as liberal and as dangerous as they come.

Yes.

This thread is proof of what I’ve been saying all along: As bad as Obama is there is something infinitely worse...an electorate, especially a “conservative” electorate, that has abandoned principle.

Has Romney responded to this story?

Maybe Romney doesn’t see what all the fuss is about. The fetuses were already dead before he got them. What’s a guy to do? This is a capitalist country, isn’t it?

We teamed with Stalin to defeat Hitler. Didn’t mean we had to like or support Stalin’s agenda.

We did NOT team up with Hitler to defeat Stalin. We did NOT elect a president who sold cyanide to Hitler.

And, we're not going to elect Romney this year.

“And, we’re not going to elect Romney this year. “

Then it will be Obama and America will be lost. On the plus side I’ll turn the heat up when they throw you in the ovens.

I don't blame you, driftdriver; you had no way of knowing that Romney was so deeply involved in the "business" of abortion. None of Romney's slick ads ever mentioned how many jobs he created disposing of the bodies of millions of innocent boys and girls slaughtered for profit and convenience by the "business" of abortion.

How deep in the abyss can a human being be asked to go to try to find the "lesser" of evils? As we now know that Romney rented his soul for money stained by the blood of innocent, murdered children, can we not now change Romney's name from the lesser of evil to the Lessor of Evil?

But, I don't blame you, driftdriver; you had no way of knowing.

You might start carrying some pepper around, that way you’ll be tasty in the ovens.

Just a question on Romney's company, Stericycle.

Doesn't the "cycle" in Stericycle suggest that Romney was recycling the fetuses in some way?

IMO only a sick mind would make that assumption.

Is Mittler going to formally propose putting sensible conservatives in ovens??? As his pom pom girl you are in a better position to know his plans. Even I did not realize that.

driftdriver:

As opposed to your #151???

Bain helped recycle murdered babies for profit. Mittler was a "founding father" of Bain. Mittler, as a Bain investor, personally reaped profit from the sale of the corpses of murdered babies.

People are responsible for what they do. Even Mittler. Even Mittler's pom pom girls. Being rich is not a get out of hell free card.

Is it safe to assume that greed and corporate raiding and offshoring the jobs of modest Americans were founding bedrock "principles" of Mittler's Bain Capital but he somehow ignored morality and the innocent victims of abortion whose murdered corpses were "recycled" for profit???

Got copies of any correspondence from Mittler to Bain asking them not to fatten his personal take by trading in the corpses of murdered babies??? Safe bet is that no such correspondence exists. There are numerous abortion enthusiasts who would NEVER sit still for any investment of theirs actually selling the corpses of the aborted. Since Mittler like his mommy and daddy before him is an eager abortion lover and supporter, I wonder why people who pose as "conservatives" here would also be his pom pom girls?

"Lean to the left, lean to the right, etch-a-sketch and fight, fight, fight!" Right???

Please tell me that you are not a Mittler pom pom girl. Say it isn't so. Say it isn't so. The SOB and POS formally persecuted the Roman Catholic Church to which we both belong and has not indicated any intention to avoid continuance of Obozo's similar and very slightly lesser but unacceptable persecution under Obozocare and the Sebelius regs.

That does not bother you but muawiyah's alleged affiliation with the USPS does?????

On second thought, maybe that is how Mittler’s pom pom girls address God and what they think of Him.

driftdiver:

1. In response to #140 and all of its specific questions, you chose to shut up. One is not surprised. You cannot be blamed. There IS NO rational defense of Mittler that can be made to conservatives as, apparently, you well know.

2. Therefore like other leftist pom pom girls: Rachel Maddow and her pro-Obozo ilk, Ann Coulter and her pro-Mittler ilk, your only response is frustrated insults and potty talk.

Mittler is a militant pro-abort and always has been, a militant faggot coddler and marriage destroyer and social revolutionary and always has been, a gun grabber and always has been, a church persecutor and a wide variety of other repulsively leftist things, but you knew that. Although you deny it, you have eagerly signed up as the Madame Defarge of the American version of the French Revolution. Mittler stars as the Robespierre wannabe.

I think actual conservatives have your number now and forever.

Yup ~ we have tag team acolytes of the Antichrist working this thread ~ they have no souls. They’ve been purchased long ago by the lord of this earth.
