Obama and top campaign bundler Jonathan Lavine from Bain Capital.
The Obama campaign blamed Governor Mitt Romney for the demise of GST Steel company in a video they released in May. The plant closed in 2001. Mitt left Bain in 1999.
For some reason the Obama camp forgot to mention this… Obama’s top bundler Jonathan Lavine was in charge of Bain during the BST layoffs. Chuck Slowe reported:
Blaming Governor Romney for any issues surrounding the failure of GST is wrong and it is a blatant lie. Mitt Romney had been long gone when the company started to fail and subsequently closed it doors. When are the President and his campaign hacks going to get the story correct? When are they going to get back to their economy and its dreadful condition? Mr. President, you can run but you cannot hide.
It turns out that Jonathan Lavine, current Obama bundler, was actually in charge, at Bain, during that period, when the layoffs occurred. Oops, that isn’t right, is it? Yes, that story is the one that needs to be reported on. Sorry Mr. President, your lies are just getting to be more than many of us are able to handle.
And, Jonathan Lavine is not your average Obama Bain donor. Lavine is one of Barack Obama’s top bundlers. ABC reported:
While Democrats assail presumptive Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney’s Bain Capital business practices, Republicans note that President Obama has not been bashful about accepting cash from Bain executives or other high-profile figures in the corporate buyout business…
…One of Obama’s top campaign financiers – Jonathan Lavine – is also managing director at Bain, bundling between $100,000 and $200,000 in contributions for the 2012 Obama Victory Fund, according to estimates released by the Obama campaign. The president has also relied on other leading figures in the private equity sector as hosts for high-dollar fundraisers and as members of his Jobs Council.
Maybe someday the liberal media will report on this.
WAHAAAAAAAAAA!!!.
Where do these ninnies in the 0bama campaign come from? They are not even doing BASIC CYA research. But then, with the pass the media in general gives them, they have absolutely no qualms about lying and omitting.
Is this that ad with Donny Boxx or whatever his name is?

This is almost better than a guy who once ATE dog tops the guy who put his dog in a crate on top of his car.
Why do I get the feeling that Romney knows about this and knew about it and has known about it all along. He was Mr. Bain Capital after all.
So why has he been holding his punches???
Members of the communist “international” know very well that the purpose of regulation in America is to make returns from overseas more profitable. Besides, throwing whatever pennies that finally make it to workers is worth enriching the local dictator, if only as a matter of “fairness.”
They would compare this to Soetoro's business practices except...HE DOESN'T HAVE ANY.
“This is almost better than a guy who once ATE dog tops the guy who put his dog in a crate on top of his car.”
I had a brief moment there where I misunderstood your post. I read DOG TOPS and wondered if it was like Seinfeld’s Muffin Tops...and then it dawned on me what you meant.
Maybe he's saving his ammo for the debates. That's when people will be paying attention.
For now, he and the first gay president are running about even. It's better not to rock the boat. ANYTHING Romney does now gives the left more fodder to attack him with.
Right now, "If it ain't broke - don't fix it." Maybe it's best he stand back and let Oboma destroy himself. Save the best stuff for later - "Save your ammo, and wait until you see the whites of their eyes."
Sounds like Romney and Obama are all in with the same bunch.
Correct, and technically he is still primary mode. So until the convention is over he can’t really do much.. I believe there is a law..
Romeny spent the bulk of his primary dollars trashing conservative opponents. Obama didn't have primary opponents (other than a jailbird and 'none of the above'), so he is spending his un-used primary bucks now to trash Romney.
Yeh right. They said the same thing about McCain four years ago. DeJaVu all over again.
What the hell are you posting man!?
Yikes!
