Bain Capital's bloody hands.
August 9, 2012 at 6:15 am
Interesting article I stumbled upon.
Did Bain Capital receive startup money from leaders of
El Salvadorian death squads?
Quote:While they were on the lookout for investments in the United States, members of some of these prominent families -- including the Salaverria, Poma, de Sola and Dueñas clans -- were also at the time financing, either directly or through political parties, death squads in El Salvador. The ruling classes were deploying the death squads to beat back left-wing guerrillas and reformers during El Salvador's civil war.
In 1982, two years before Romney began raising money from the these well-heeled Salvadoran financiers, El Salvador's independent Human Rights Commission reported that, of the 35,000 civilians killed in that tiny country's civil war, "most" died at the hands of death squads.
Also, slightly unrelated, but
oops!

The last Republican to balance the budget, which makes the phrase 'fiscal conservative' and oxymoron for their party. Bastards have never given two tosses about the deficit until now. Or a Ron Paul mixed with Alan Grayson would be good 
exactly, if the republicans had an "ike" right now, the country would be in a much better spot by default. i also like your idea of a ron paul mixed with alan grayson but i'd like grayson more with dennis kucinich <sp?> out of ohio.

Well, it's just like back in 88 with Pat Robertson and his diamond mines and blood wars.
