That plant closed 8 years after Bain invested in the failing company and long after Mitt left. My understanding was that Bain repaired them then years later sold the company to a Canadian co which eventually closed the plant. Hardly murder. The goal of private equity is to resurrect dying companies, get them healthy and sell them off. Under Romney, Bain resurrected AK Steel (i think that's the name) from the brink of bankruptcy. They are now the 3rd largest steel mill in the country employing thousands.

This is just another lie in many being spread by the liar in chief under cover of a complicit media. Lets look back on the past few weeks. Romney is a felon. Romney is a murderer. Romney hasn't paid any taxes in 10 years. Romney drinks the blood of babies in his Mormon ceremonies.

Meanwhile in the real world Obama squandered 800 Billion dollars of stimulus money. He could have used a few billion to keep our space program alive. Or to do some of the infrastructure jobs that he is now pining for another stimulus for. That would have saved some jobs. Instead he spend hundreds of billions of the dollars on green energy grants and subsidies with the promise of 5 million new green energy jobs. We got nothing. We actually lost jobs in the coal industry with more job losses there looming. Next he sold us a healthcare plan that was supposed to lower the average family's premiums by $2500 per year while being deficit neutral. Instead we got $3000+ increases in premiums alongside a slew of new taxes and deficits. Boeing opens a plant in SC and Obama goes after them eventually blackmailing them in to a deal with the union in Oregon that they would not have made otherwise. Then he cow tows environmentalists (Hollywood libs were all over this issue, there is a video of Julia Louis-Dreyfus making a plea to Obama on behalf of environmental loons) and blocks Keystone but lies about the reasons and claims 3 years of environmental impact studies just wasn't enough. There is a pattern here.

This administration sells their policies on blatant lies. They lie about everything. They believe the ends justify the means. They know the complicit media will not call them out. Hence we get commercials calling Romney a killer.
