You guys are showing your complete ignorance of private enterprise, the law, and a well vetted part of Mitt Romney’s career — his tenure at Bain Capital.

1) It is well established that Mitt Romney left Bain to go salvage the Salt Lake City Winter Olympics.
2) It is also well established that his name remained on some SEC documents. This stems from winding down his partnership interest in Bain Capital. It is a quirk in the law. It has been well vetted.  
3) FactCheck.org, the Washington Post, and CNN Finance slap down Team Obama’s hyperbole.
4) Complete lack of sense.  In order to take you seriously we would have to accept that Romney was both working 24/7 saving the Olympics in Salt Lake City AND running an incredibly important Capitol Firm in Boston simultaneously.  If this is true, If he is capable of this, he would be no doubt the greatest president of all time.  ...wait you think this made up crap is a negative??? You don't make sense even if we take you seriously.

SEC records don't lie and on top of that Romney himself testified that he still had ties to the
company

Maybe you missed the bold underlined sentence, so I'll reiterate it a few times:

winding down his partnership interest in Bain Capital
winding down his partnership interest in Bain Capital
winding down his partnership interest in Bain Capital
winding down his partnership interest in Bain Capital


Man leaves company to save Olympic games and... 
 ...winds down his partnership interest in the company (Bain Capital). 
Understand you can do that without running the company! 

Tony Resco buys Obama a house = nothing to see here
Romney saves the Olympics and winds down his partnership in a company in order to do so = scandal!! LOL.

Take it down a notch. I posted Romney's own words, which were in testimony he gave to prove Massachusetts residency in order to stand for Governor. Now, if he wasn't connected to Bain then, he lied under oath then and if he was connected to Bain, then he's stretching the truth now. Either way, it appears he has honesty issues.
That either/or is ludicrous.  Maybe you don't understand what "winding down his partnership interest in Bain Capital" means.  Maybe it didn't occur to you that you can go out of town on business for an extended period of time (saving the Olympics, fighting in a war, etc) without surrendering your residency OR perhaps you need to take it down a notch and think for 5 minutes.

I'm not trying to get into a back and forth,
I'm not either. 

I just think there is more to all of this than Romney is saying.

...like what ??   He's Superman or something?

Winding down for 3 years? Seriously?

He left for the Olympics, He probably considered returning to BAIN after the Olympics.  That was likely the plan.  He was in no Rush to liquidate his partnership in a firm he was returning to.  Instead he ran for Governor.
