Did Bain invest in abortion clinics?

You are missing the point. Apparently on purpose.

To call Newt and those who are calling for scrutiny on predatory corporate practices ANTI-CAPITALIST is really no different that those who would accuse the pro-life movement of being ANTI-MEDICINE or people who believe in intelligent design ANTI-SCIENCE.

Indeed the left uses the ANTI-SCIENCE argument against anyone who hasn't bought into the global warming fraud.

If what I am saying about predatory corporate practices and ethical capitalism is ANTI-CAPITALIST, then those of you who oppose Abortion on moral grounds are just being ANTI-MEDICINE.

FWIW I suspect that dozens of Bain Controlled Companies contribute to Planned Parenthood on a regular basis. So the answer to your non-sequitor is... yes.

No, I'm just not letting you reframe the argument to your strawman.

The argument is being made that Bain was "unethical" in it's business practices. Several posters have posted details showing that Bain was not the villain it's been portrayed as. No one has defined how they are applying the term ethical, or any of the pejortives being applied to venture capitalism.

None of us want Romney, but attacking him with lies and an assault on free enterprise is not only wrong it is self destructive. Romney will probably have a solid response to this attack at the next debate and it will probably propel him to the nomination. So much for your "ethical capitalism" and those who would wish to have the power to implement it.

Good on you, Marlowe. Well said. And for the record, I believe in intelligent design, and I think honest, disinterested science reveals intelligent design.
