“I almost fell off the barstool when I read that it was Bain Capital (Mitt Romney, former CEO), that told oil giant BP it was a good idea to cut costs. The cuts would lead to death, mayhem and the destruction of the Gulf Coast (not to mention BP’s poisoning of Alaska, Africa, Central Asia and Colombia).
In 2007, after BP’s criminal negligence and penny-pinching led to the explosion at the BP oil refinery on the Gulf Coast, in Texas City, Texas, the company brought in industry pooh-bah James Baker, their lawyer and former Secretary of State, to write a report. Baker is Big Oil’s BFF, but in this case, he was horrified, and told BP to get its act together and spend some real money on operating safety.”

Obama reelection strategists getting desperate.
“I almost fell off my chair when I first heard Obama was the son of the devil, but let me to you some obscure relationships that probably don’t directly tie back to him and would never be noticed if politics were not getting involved.”
perhaps….but it would be protocol for Bain or any other adviser to suggest cost cutting measures that lead to serious problems.
Sorry, but the article starts out with “I almost fell off the barstool when I read that it was Bain Capital (Mitt Romney, former CEO), that told oil giant BP it was a good idea to cut costs,” and is therefore worthy of the garbage can. The author can eat shit.
Mitt Romney was not working with Bain in 2007. This is obviously a political hit piece, and should be treated with all the contempt it deserves.
hit pieces are cool as they try to misconstrue and paint pictures.
sounds like everyday politicking and main stream business as usual.
