In reply to the discussion: Oh, "Managing Member of Bain in 2002 Mitt Romney," you are SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO screwed. [View all]BumRushDaShow
(167,352 posts)17. Does he not realize
that in the age of the internet and electronic databases, these things are no longer just sitting lost and inaccessible in some anonymous folder in a metal file cabinet or box in storage? Nowadays, they are all scanned, catalogued, entered into a database as an image file, and searchable online for anyone, including lazy pseudo-"journalists" who people ABC, CBS, NBC, CNN, Fox, (and in some cases, MSNBC).
I think there really is a generation gap there as he went off to enjoy the good life. He sits up there posing with an ipad on the artificial beach created at his lake front mansion, but he doesn't compute what the device is (or what's behind it).
I guess because he's used to others doing for him.

But he liked firing people. For some people, it's not about the money. It is about their dignity. nt

They're giving equal time to soulless anuses like Ed Gillespie who said he "retroactively" resigned.

He's giving it up that running something like Bain is something to be ashamed of.

As a "Manager", shouldn't he have fired himself for getting paid $$$$$$$$$ and doing nothing?
