It's nice to see the globe is fully vetting our presidential candidates, digging, digging and more digging. did you just wake up, I was hoping to see this in 2008.

Why does this matter? The Globe is desperate, as it is becoming more and more evident that Romney will be our next president.

This is the top story when we still have high unemployment, rising poverty and welfare dependency, failing schools, a disastrous foreign policy, subsidies for Obama bundlers, gun walking to Mexico, etc.?

Well, Willard, are you saying you lied to the people or to the SEC? Or are you planning to lie again and say you dud neither?

"OzarK" As I have tried to point out numerous times it does not matter whether Mitt acted illegally or not it only matters how things look. I have civilly tried to point out to Mitt's supporters this is a damaging story that could get worse. Not because of illegality but because of appearance. Mitt needs to release as many returns as possible, deal with the story and move on get back on message. You said, "This is the top story when we still have high unemployment, rising poverty and welfare dependency, failing schools, a disastrous foreign policy, subsidies for Obama bundlers, gun walking to Mexico, etc.?" and you are absolutely right, Mitt needs to get back to his campaign, but apparently does not know how to defuse the current problem. I would say that is a sign of a bad campaign, bad advisers and a bad candidate. I've got nothing against Mitt except I never considered him a real Pol or a real political ideas guy. He's showing it.

Willard doesn't know what do do about a problem unless he can buy it or fire it.

There is no reason to retract a simple fact, that Mitt Romney wants to have it both ways. Either he retired and he wasn't responsible for Bain's layoffs and shipping jobs overseas, like he said, or he hadn't retired and he was responsible for Bain's layoffs and shipping jobs overseas, like he told the SEC. Both of these cannot be true. The SEC filing is false, or the retirement statement is false.

The Globe keeps printing half truths. The real story is that Romney left Bain in 1999 to aid the Olympics. As with most companies it takes time for paperwork to catch up. Mitt was not working for the company any longer. This is but another example of the Globe's liberal bias, printing half truths before reseaching an article.

Something appears rather odiferous about this Boston Globe pickup of an online news site's report of SEC filings related to Mitt Romney's relations with Bain Capital. But that is not the nub... This morning, Friday, July 13, 2012, there was an interesting tale told by Donny Deutsch, a son of an advertising mogul and NBC media maven in his own right. The discussion - led by another media flackeroonee for the Obama mob, good old Mika - was about Romney's credibility given the Glob's story about SEC filings and Romney's departure timetable from Bain. Deutsch told of dropping out of day-to-day involvement with a company, at whose helm he remained at least in name. He said he also occasionally signed documents, yet was not considered the head of the firm. This is most insightful for anyone intersted in the nasty Obamamob attacks on Romney's business career as even Deutsch said during the 'Morning Joe" show that his experience was something akin to the Romney situaton post-1999 as reflected in the SEC filings the Globe tries to claim it dug up. In fact, the Romney documents-SEC story appears to have originated with a fellow named Josh Marshall at a website called "Talking Points Memo" or "TPM". Is the originator of this story important? Maybe not in most circumstances, but when a non-Boston Glob staffer calls Romney and his presidential candidacy untruthful, the newspaper's own penchant for honesty becomes inherently part of the story. Worse yet is the attempt by the Glob and other left-listed media outlets to accuse Romney of criminal activity. Let's not forget that Barry the O, the *****-in-chief hero of those lefties, was a criminal of unknown dimension during his younger and maybe even law school days when he traveled around on a smokey haze that had the rank odor of marijuana about it. And were there other drugs besides MJ involved?

The Globe is getting the reputation of a gossip rag - another 'Enquirer'. It is serious when a reader must doubt & question the credibility of Globe articles.

Anyone still wondering why Obama failed in his 4 years in Washington? Too busy searching the garbage piles for minutia.

Voters know that the present day media with the 'tingles' running up their legs while listening to Obama - will - never - ever vet Obama's history or his 4 years in Washington. That is something readers must wait for another generation of reporters to do for us.

Gotta love how after a 4-year onslaught of birtherism, college transcripts & Rev. Wright, now suddenly conservatives want to talk not about Romney's blatant lies but rather about "the issues." Too funny!

I gather that, others also find it interesting that investigators can easily locate intimate details of Romney's past, yet they unable to find even the smallest scintilla of credible information about our POTUS. Could it be that we may never know (like who killed JFK) the truth.

Cantabrigian01: Your conclusion is true everywhere but Massachusetts. We've had our head in the sand for quite a while claiming to be the smart ones.

They've created jobs. However, they're union jobs. Gotta protect their voters.

In Internet slang, a troll is someone who posts inflammatory, extraneous, or off-topic messages in an online community, such as an online discussion forum, chat room, or blog, with the primary intent of provoking readers into an emotional response or of otherwise disrupting normal on-topic discussion.

Oh Please. If this were Obama you'd all be calling for a Congressional investigation and lobbying for impeachment.

Half-truths? Care to provide examples and rebuttals?

Where are the jobs? Ask the receivers of the Bush tax cuts who have been raking it in and not spending a cent to create jobs. That's where! "I was not thinking of running for office," Romney said. "I was trying to fill our my tax forms as accurately as possible." First his wife did it,not he. Second, his tax lawyer did it, not he. Third, the tax office in Utah made a mistake about his permanent address, not he. Legal mistakes, indeed. He has the best lawyers/accountants money can buy. There are no accidental mistakes with that crowd. If we had lawyers like that. none of us would pay taxes. When Mitt was governor, he was never here. He was setting up his presidential run all over the U.S.. It was a joke here,"Where's Willard?" He has been thinking of running for president since 1948. He is just a liar who thinks that as long as he skirts around the law, his lawyers will get him out of it. Makes Bill Clinton look like a boy scout. President, indeed!

And what is that information about the POTUS supposed to be? The Tea Party has thrown every bit of slime against him they could dream up. The best you could do was the birther BS.

Let's change the subject shall we, so sayeth the DNC minions at the Boston Globe. Trying to take the clean-as-a-hound's-tooth Romney, and try to make him into some dark and sinister figure. Not working guys. Even the Washington Post and Factcheck have cut the legs underneath this bogus meme. The economy still stinks despite five trillion in new debt and the Fed window open 24/7. And now you expect the voters to get lost in the weeds of SEC filings and Romney's exit as CEO of Bain? Get a grip.

Here is an article on this from CNN that sheds more light on the subject. I know the Globe leans to the left - but come on! http://www.cnn.com/2012/07/12/politics/john-king-bain/index.html?hpt=hp_c1

The Globe knew this story was a lie when they published it. I'm seriously considering canceling my subscription. The editor can't even bring himself to admit it was a lie, when half of the Obama media is now acknowledging it was a lie.
