Who Invests in Bain Capital ? - PeachParts Mercedes-Benz Forum

Nice list of who puts union monies into the evil Bain. Sounds like a bunch of hypocrites.
Not to mention all the monies Dem's accept for campaigns.

Quote:

Bain’s private-equity executives have enriched dozens of organizations and millions of individuals in the Democratic base — including some who scream most loudly for President Obama’s re-election.

Is Bain really a gang of corporate buccaneers who plunder their ill-gotten gains by outsourcing, euthanizing feeble portfolio companies and giving cancer to the spouses of those whom they fired? If so, union bosses, government retirees, liberal foundations and elite universities thrive on the wages of Bain’s economic Darwinism.

If, however, these institutions relish the yields that Bain Capital generates by supporting start-ups and rescuing distressed companies, 80 percent of which have prospered, then this money is honest — and Team Obama isn’t.

Did you see where the person at the DNC who implied that he was a Bain Capital employee that had to give bad news to a group of workers was not ACTUALLY a Bain Capital employee, but rather was a union fat cat? So much for integrity of the convention.

Typical or what?

If it wasn't for Obama, we'd have trillion-dollar deficits, huge unemployment, collapsed housing market, and tens of millions on the gov't teet. Oh, wait... Nevermind. Forget I said that. All is good here; nothing to see.

He's the best of a party that created the problems its claiming to be solving.

The country is wise to the Democratic BS.

Now that's funny!!! Expecting integrity from either party is like trying to get orange juice from an apple.

I notice a distinct lack of response from our resident public "servants". Probably busy getting their talking points telling them how to respond to the revelation of their hypocrisy. To be fair- I don't think any of them are intelligent enough to know where their monthly cheese actually comes from.

117 views and still no replies from our public "servants"? I guess we'll have to wait until Monday when they go back to work and get their debriefing from their handlers- since they don't work weekends like I have to. If they were true to their cause they would demand that their money be invested in other companies. Even better would be if Bain refused their business, then they wouldn't have to be tainted by the evil capitalists. I won't hold my breath waiting for that though! Talk about biting the hand that feeds you!

Nothing on that list for me to feel hypocritical about, thanks for posting it. ;-)
I work 7 days a week by the way, and I'm a retired public servant.

Bain is evil unless you're an investor.

Wow- I guess the troll card is now as popular as the race card when somebody doesn't agree with you! I would really like to hear an explanation from all the Bain bashers on how they can rationalize away their hypocrisy. Kinda like "environmentalists" who think that man is a blight on their great Gaia, but they are still alive. Be true to your cause or STFU.
