Do the SEC documents suggest that Romney is either lying or a criminal as Obama's camp has claimed?
Or is Romney telling the truth that he ended active management in 1999 while running the Olympics and handling other obligations, but did not officially agree to a severance contract until 2002.
Add him to President Bill Clinton and Mayor Cory Booker, both Democrats.
What does Obama fundraiser, one time Democrat Candidate for the Senate, and Bain big wig say? Well Steve Paglicua says:
They now have 4 people spilling their guts at Bain during that time, 3 registered Democrats and 2 actively campaigning for Obama -- including Obama Bundler Jonathan Lavine -- and they all say Romney is 100% telling the truth.
So why does Obama keep pushing a lie? Oh that is right, Obama's own words:
They are desperate, plain and simple. They think that people are so stupid they won't understand this or try to find out the facts and in some cases that might be true....bu those folks probably were already voting for Obama.
There is also a big point here that needs to be made, Bain was not a publically traded company so even if what they are implying was true (and it is NOT), no law was broken, felony or otherwise. Bain Capital was a private company.
In Romney’s 2002 race for governor, Romney testified before the state Ballot Law Commission that his separation from Bain in 1999 had been a “leave of absence” and not a final departure. Source
Maybe Andrea didn't get the memo?
Governor Romney left Bain Capital in February of 1999, Romney spokeswoman Andrea Saul said in a statement to CNN. Source
Huh? How is CNN and Politifact calling a Dem President a liar a problem for Romney? Obama is in full blown panic mode. And the blogosphere equivalent to birthers arent eloping his cause.

Huh? Did Romney go back after 1999? Did I miss something? Another swing and a miss by an increasingly desperate left.
In the years Romney describes himself as on leave from Bain, here's how Bain was describing him in reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission: sole shareholder, sole director, chief executive officer, president, and even managing director -- of a firm he says he wasn't managing.

I think the suggestion, properly made, is that Mr. Romney has ... once again ... lied. Whether he's violated the law is something for Attorney General Holder to determine.
I would think that as owner and president of Bain, Romney would have voiced his dislike for all the outsourcing Bain was doing even if he wasn't at the board meetings which is unlikely.
