Last Thursday Willard was all over TV denying that he had anything what so ever to do with Bain Capital and Bain's business decisions or operations after 1999. He was still the sole stockholder during that time????

In 2002, when he decided to run for Governor, defending his claim to Massachusetts residency before that state's election commission, Willard said "When I left my employer in 1999 I left on a basis of a leave of absence indicating that I would return...to my employment at Bain Capital..., but I (after my Olympic duty ended) decided not too and entered into a departure agreement...."

Before the same group his attorney said that during his (Romney's) leave his work in the private sector continued unbroken. "Now while (heading the Olympics) what happened to his private and public ties to Massachusetts? They continued unabated...."

Now you can make the argument that what I call Willards "flip flops for political gain" on abortion, gun control, immagration, gay rights, healthcare etc were "wise policy corrections", there is no way to color the fact...when it comes to Willard's relationship to Bain between 1999 and 2002...He either did lie in 2002 or he is lying in 2012!

Now he is a politician and lies from politicians is what we all expect and get. The rub comes when the backers of a particular politician refuse to accept or admit his or her lies.
