Mitt's pants on fire...
Quote:
His credibility under attack, Republican presidential hopeful Mitt Romney said Friday that he had "no role whatsoever in the management" of a private equity firm after early 1999 and demanded President Barack Obama apologize for aides who allege otherwise.
"This is simply beneath the dignity of the presidency of the United States," Romney said in an interview on ABC, one of several he granted to network and cable stations in the hope of extinguishing the controversy.

Quote:
Securities and Exchange Commission documents have surfaced suggesting Romney played an active role through 2002.
The filings with the SEC place Romney in charge of Bain Capital from 1999 to 2001, the period in which it outsourced jobs and ran companies that fell into bankruptcy.
"Now, my understanding is that Mr. Romney attested to the SEC multiple times that he was the chairman, CEO and president of Bain Capital. And I think most Americans figure if you're the chairman, CEO and president of a company, that you are responsible for what the company does," Obama said.
