Presumably, he didn't get to put his signature on anything after you escorted him off the premises. And most important, if you needed to prove that he was CEO in name only, you had a copy of the severance agreement to wave around.

Romney claimed to have left Bain, period. If it really WAS an "administrative leave," WHY didn't he say so...because he was, in reality, FIRED???
