Mitt Romney said that he had no recollection of returning to Massachusetts for business meetings in 2002 following his departure from Bain Capital to head the Olympics in Salt Lake City.
I left Bain in February of 1999, Romney said in an interview with CBSs Jan Crawford on Friday evening. People can point out how - I was in Salt Lake City for three straight years. I dont recall even coming back once to go to a Bain or management meeting. We were, I was out there running the Olympics and it was a full time job, I can tell you that.
Romney testified to Massachusetts officials in 2002 that he maintained business ties during his Olympics work, undermining his argument that he had no connection to Bain Capital or related companies after 1999.
So not once, Crawford pressed, you dont remember a board meeting, you dont remember talking about whether or not there should be outsourcing jobs overseas? Do you remember any involvement with Bain Capital from 1999 on?

(4,919 posts)I've known people like him... Folks with NPD lie constantly in amazing ways... Narcissists will say anything to anyone to avoid feeling shamed in the moment... Narcissists say what they think their audience wants to hear... They avoid inconvenient confrontations of facts with a "How dare you question me?!?!" defense. He's very predictable once you know a little about NPD. He will never admit to doing anything wrong or contradicting himself (despite the recorded evidence).

(4,919 posts)I think minutes are also legally required. It's important to recognize that Bain only existed and operated to make money for it's shareholders, err single shareholder... Mitt Romney. It's insulting for Mitt to tell us that he wasn't involved... He was Bain.
