Mr. Romney is, in my opinion, a crook and a liar(a robust term for ‘flip flopper’. And the tabloid journalists at the Washington Post are a pathetic but prominent example of the failure of the American educational system , college journalism ,and ethics courses.
This is the money quote:
‘concluded that much of the language saying Romney was “sole stockholder, chairman of the board, chief executive officer, and president” was boilerplate that did not reveal whether he was actually managing Bain at the time. (For instance, there is no standard definition of a “chief executive,”

I will save and use the above as poor journalism and worse logic.
Mr. Romeny was not having sex with that Bain creature and there is no definition of what ‘is’ is. The Washington Post oozed into truly Clintonesque language and logic.
‘sole stockholder, chairman of the board, chief executive officer, and president”
‘boilerplate’ my jolly ass. He ran the company, period.

That’s my feeling, too. If the sole shareholder, chairman of the board, CEO and president wasn’t running things and didn’t know what was going on, then who did?

I get the feeling that Romney may be trying to determine if maybe there was some janitor who worked there back then who is now deceased. If so, he could be the guy who will now be designated as the manager who was in “actual control” of the company between 1999 and 2002.

Romney is really just making it worse by trying to cover this mess up. He should just release the documents and forthrightly answer questions, even if the answers turn out to be a bit embarrassing. He can always say, “Please remember that all this happened before I created my current pro-life position.”
