Silo Catches McCain Lying: Records PROVE Rick Davis is -STILL Director Of Lobbying Firm

Silo Catches McCain Lying: Rick Davis is Still a Director at Davis Manafort
By: Lindsay Beyerstein Wednesday September 24, 2008 4:39 pm

?

Rick Davis, Treasurer/Clerk, Davis Manafort, Inc.

The McCain campaign claims that campaign manager Rick Davis separated from his lobbying firm, Davis Manafort, in 2006:

In fact, the allegation is demonstrably false. As has been previously reported, Mr. Davis separated from his consulting firm, Davis Manafort, in 2006. As has been previously reported, Mr. Davis has seen no income from Davis Manafort since 2006. Zero. Mr. Davis has received no salary or compensation since 2006. Mr. Davis has received no profit or partner distributions from that firm on any basis -- weekly, bi-weekly, monthly, bi-monthly, quarterly, semi-annual or annual -- since 2006. Again, zero. Neither has Mr. Davis received any equity in the firm based on profits derived since his financial separation from Davis Manafort in 2006.

This record, which I retrieved from the Virginia State Corporations Commission shows that Davis is still an officer/director of Davis Manafort, Inc. He is also currently the clerk/treasurer of Davis Manafort Partners, Inc.

.....................

The public record shows that Davis has an ongoing business relationship with the firm Davis Manafort, Inc--a firm mortgage Freddie Mac paid $15,000 a month up until the government took it over last month, purely because of Davis's proximity to Senator McCain.

If you are still a director of a company, you have not separated from it. The McCain camp is lying again.

1. When will Rick disappear from McCain's campaign?

Soon, I would guess.
