If true, could King Barack have his goons arrest Romney on felony charges?

They could but they won’t because it will be FAR more effective to make this drip drip drip all the way to November. You can count on them doing just that. Hussein will just sit back and let the press and surrogates tear Romney apart.

Romney is going to get slaughtered in November. I can not describe how upset I am “we” nominated this idiot.

Thanks SO much GOP Elite for this turd you gave us.

Unbelieveable.

when, by law, one must file contemporaneous paperwork with the Secretary of State of the state the business is incorporated in noting the change of principals.

But, what if Mitt delivered pizzas or mowed lawns while in high school or worked as a rough neck on an oil rig while in college.

Do we expect him to know those exact dates.

There are a lot of fence sitters and Rmoney haters over there and this may be enough to peel some of them away from voting at all this year.

To Tau

My opinion of your comments is that you have little understanding about the mechanics of CEO transitions. This lack of knowledge is evident to many FReepers and it may lead to people thinking that you are ignorant about many things, in addition to the things you are clearly ignorant about.

Clinton's problem in his trip to Ireland is they couldn't pin down exactly who his Irish ancestors were.
You have to distinguish between Travelers and Gypsies of course, but I think the Blythe family were authentic Roma who'd been pretty much Americanized at the time ~ probably by the Church of the First Born. Many of the earliest Pennsylvania records report on crimes commited by Gypsies as well as COFB congregations and members, in the same jurisdictions.

BTW, COFT prays over you ~ no folk medicine I've ever been able to find.

He was creating wealth for himself and his rich criminal friends by destroying jobs and companies and outsourcing to China - just to clarify.

"You can cede control and still be chief executive officer. It happens all the time for various reasons. The company is for sale but they still want the cachet of a famous CEO at the helm. The bring someone in to run day to day operations. Or, the CEO wants to move on, but they still want to give investors, employees, customers, etc. the appearance of stability while they groom a replacement.

There are scores of other reasons, but these two are the most common.

The CEO retains the title, but someone else carries out the day-to-day responsibilities. I have dealt with quite a numbers of vendors which have done the foregoing for a period of a few months to several years. Three years is about average.

In a former life, I was essentially acting CEO for a small operation while the elderly and respected CEO retained the title. When the board engineered a coup to drive him out, I left rather than betray his vision for the organization.

This is common business practice and there is nothing nefarious about it
."

Unless you are publicly held and in the financial industry. Then you have investors to answer to, and can get into deep trouble for doing this. Did I mention in the financial industry?

I doubt any of these yahoos have opened a series 7 book in their lives, much less the rest of the requirements necessary to be a trader.
