factcheck.org is sticking by their assessment that Romney was at most a passive investor at Bain after 1999. They conclude their piece that replies to the Globe, TPM and Mother Jones with this: Dishonest Campaigns The Romney campaign cited our work in a recent ad to accuse President Obama of running a “dishonest campaign.” The term “dishonest” is theirs, not ours, however. And we make no judgments about the personal character of either candidate, or their campaigns. And we’ll just note for the record that FactCheck.org has also found numerous instances in which Romney has also strayed from the facts in accusations against Obama. He also claimed that he created 100,000 jobs at Bain Capital — a claim we found lacked support because it took credit for jobs added by companies long after Romney had left the Bain. But that’s no excuse for the Obama campaign trying to saddle Romney with responsibility for decisions Bain made while Romney was somewhere else. – Brooks Jackson, with Rob Farley and Eugene Kiely sees no basis for the Obama campaign’s claim that Romney committed a felony Posted by Brooks Jackson on Thursday, July 12, 2012 at the full reply is at factcheck.org
