Mitt Romneys Criminal History!

Summary
Subject ROMNEY has been arrested on two occasions, in Massachusetts and Michigan, and, per Utah law enforcement, been verbally abusive with sheriff's deputy there. Known associates are currently under investigation for impersonating a police officer and fraud and money laundering.

Other Names and Aliases
"The Jobs Senator" (1994)2

"Team Reform" (c. 2002-2004)3

"Conservative Republican" (c. 2006-2007)4

Arrests and Other Contacts with Law Enforcement
WAYLAND, MASS. (1981) -- ARREST- DISORDERLY CONDUCT.
In June 1981, ROMNEY attempted to launch family motorboat at Cochituate State Park despite park ranger advising that he was prohibited from doing so because his boat did not display proper registration. ROMNEY was arrested and charged with disorderly conduct. ROMNEY handcuffed and transported in bathing suit to Natick police station, where released on own recognizance.5 Disposition: Charges were dropped when ROMNEY threatened to sue the state for false arrest; case dismissed at Natick District Court in February 1982. ROMNEY successfully petitioned that the files be sealed.6

BLOOMFIELD HILLS, MICH. (c. 1965) -- ARREST- CHARGE NOT KNOWN.
ROMNEY was arrested along with future wife Ann Davies for actions in connection with practical joke at Cranbrook Academy. Reportedly ROMNEY and several friends "bought huge blocks of ice from the local gas station, laid towels over them, and went sliding down the slopes of a nearby golf course."7

HUNTSVILLE, UTAH (2002) -- USE OF PROFANITY WITH LAW ENFORCEMENT
On February 10, 2002, while overseeing 2002 Winter Olympics, ROMNEY became extremely angry upon encountering a traffic jam at a venue and proceeded to berate two persons authorized to direct traffic there, including with obscenity laced tirades, according to a police captain at the scene and a volunteer targeted by ROMNEY. The traffic volunteer Shaun Knopp stated that ROMNEY "asked me who the f___ I was and what the f___ I was doing. We got the Olympics going on we don't need this s___ down here."8 Weber County Sheriff's Office Capt. Terry Shaw, commander of the Snowbasin venue, stated that ROMNEY twice used the F-word while also berating one of his officers, Deputy Kodi Taggart. Capt. Shaw stated that ROMNEY "was abusive" to his officer and advised, unsuccessfully, that "he needs to apologize."9 ROMNEY denied part of the allegation, insisting he hadn't used the F-word since high school -- but admitted he used a word he described as "H-E-double hockey sticks." Disposition: The Utah Department of Safety advised it had decided against initiating a "profanity probe."10

Known Associates
FABIAN, ALAN: Until August 2007, FABIAN was a national finance committee co-chair for ROMNEY. Now under federal indictment for mail fraud, money laundering, bankruptcy fraud, perjury, obstruction of justice and defrauding companies of $32 million in Maryland.11

GARRITY, JAY (a/k/a "Trooper"): Until July 2007, GARRITY provided security and advance for ROMNEY whom he codenamed "LXX"; GARRITY now under investigation in Massachusetts and New Hampshire for impersonating a police officer and other charges.12

HEALEY, KERRY MURPHY (a/k/a "SHERRY" 13): HEALEY recruited by ROMNEY as accomplice for 2002 Governor's race; subsequently relegated to background role.

Additional information
POSSIBLE ANIMAL CRUELTY (1983)
In 1983, ROMNEY transported the family Irish setter, SEAMUS, in a dog carrier strapped to the roof of his Chevrolet station wagon during a 12-hour drive from Boston, Mass. to Lake Huron. No complaint was made or charges filed at time. However, Massachusetts law prohibits carrying an animal "in or upon a vehicle, or otherwise, in an unnecessarily cruel or inhuman manner or in a way and manner which might endanger the animal carried thereon."14

POSSIBLE RECKLESS DRIVING (date unknown)
According to a published account, "red lights make [ROMNEY] impatient." Per the report, at a red light at an intersection in Boston, "There was a truck in front of him but no other traffic anywhere in sight... .So [ROMNEY] pulled out around the truck -- to the left of the truck and then right in front of it -- and made a right turn. Then, at the next intersection, where again there was no traffic, he stopped and then went straight on through a red light. And then, suddenly, a policeman appeared out of nowhere.15

ALLEGED BRUSH WITH INTRUDER (c. MID 1960s)
Subject ROMNEY maintains that while a high school student at Cranbrook School in Michigan he encountered an intruder in his dorm: ROMNEY, who says, "I figured I was dead for sure," states he escaped the unknown intruder by jumping out a ground-floor window and running for help.16

In a way this helps Ron Paul. The US can't really understand Pakistan. If you get into situations where everyone ends up feeling bad, then what? Keep doing what you've been doing? Every politician who says what we want out of this, what our ideal is, ultimately has to say how we get there. And that seems terribly difficult. If Pakistan is in a kind of civil war, what actions can we take? What are the limits of American power, especially with a sometime and dubious ally like Pakistan? There seem to be elements of wishful thinking in what the candidates are saying.

Bhutto’s death is a tragedy. She was a very brave and courageous woman. Another blog was talking about how Hillary might benefit from this. I guess there is a way for Hillary to spin this to her advantage, but this is a twist of events that might not benefit her because Bhutto is a woman. Political leaders lives are at risk when they run their countries. JFK was assassinated. An attempt was made on Regan's life. This stuff happens. While this country is ready for a woman president, I don't think it is ready for the potential that a woman may die by violence in office. I hope this never happens here, but Bhutto was (as leaders go) a relatively young, beautiful woman and it happened to her.

Steve, Hartford, CT — Thu, 27 Dec 2007 16:52:41 GMT

I love how the Clinton supporter came in to go after the non-existent political attackers in this thread, which seems clearly intended to imply that supporters of other candidates are likely to do such a thing (in other words, it's a veiled attack on Edwards and Obama supporters).

That said, all of the candidates' responses are very appropriate. There is nothing to criticize in any of them (unless you disagree with Richardson's proposal, though I think it sounded pretty good).

Why must the best, most charismatic leaders face such violent opposition? Lincoln, MLK, JFK, RFK, Bhutto...They never wanted anything more than peace and prosperity, so how can there be people so diametrically opposed to their ideas as to use violence?

It speaks to the weakness of these people's positions that they must resort to such tactics. It's time to take up the banner of love again, and bring the violence on. It's time again to show the kind of courage it took to face firehoses and police dogs with only picket signs. It's time to show the kind of courage it takes to tour a country filled with violent extremists to advocate for freedom.

Never mind the election, it's almost immaterial compared to this. Racism in America is not gone, so who will take up the banner of peaceful protest once again? Extremism (obviously) lives on, so who will now take up the mantle of justice, peace and moderation?

Any takers?

Bhutto's Reaction To Obama's Comment on Military Force

QUESTIONER: You may have covered that, what I was going to ask you next, but let me try it anyhow.

We had quite an interesting, and indeed still are, mini-debate here politically between two — initially two of the Democratic aspirants for presidents, and it spread now across party lines. And Barack Obama kicked it off by saying, "If we have actionable intelligence about high-value terrorist targets and President Musharraf won't act, we will." That's a direct quote from a recent speech of his. What is your reaction to that?

BHUTTO: Well, I wouldn't like the United States to violate Pakistan's sovereignty with unauthorized military operations. But the issue that I would like to stress is that Barack Obama also said, if Pakistan won't act. And that's the critical issue, that the government has to act. And the government has to act to protect Pakistan's own serenity and integrity, its own respect, and to understand that if it creates a vacuum, then others aren't going to just twiddle their thumbs while militants freely move across the border.

Elizabeth -
What in the world is that for? I don't think Bloomberg said anything out of the line...Wow, you did!
It is so very important for us to remember that each of the candidates is truly reacting to her death as they should be. Hillary has a more personal approach because she knew the woman. Bidden's comments were also appropriately more personal. The other candidates have not been in the same position, but are still very concerned, saddened and very aware that there are major implications in this event for each American presidential candidate to be aware of.

Now we need to focus on not letting her death be in vain. We should all remember that she was killed in the name of freedom and democracy in a region where the majority was behind her. Those who silenced her are as much our enemies as they were hers.

Moving on, I was extremely saddened when I heard this news on CNN today. I remember a few months ago, watching Ms. Bhutto's interview with Wolf Blitzer and I was struck by her poise and courage. This truly is a big loss to not only Pakistan but to the world as a whole.

Wayne, Fort Collins, Colorado — Thu, 27 Dec 2007 17:27:06 GMT

Jorgensen, what does Romney's alleged criminal history have to do with this article? Nothing. Stick to the topic. There have been some great comments about the "handling" or "response" to the Bhutto situation.

To all else: the candidates are in a lose-lose situation. If (when) they comment on Bhutto the naysayers will accuse them of politcizing the unfortunate events. If they do not comment (in a timely fashion) on Bhutto other naysayers will accuse them of a lack of readiness to act in International affairs. Either way, some will find a negative about a candidate, real or perceived, and use that to tear down one while trying to build up another.

As posters, we too are caught in the middle. What happened to Bhutto, those killed/injured in the attack, and the negative implications that have and will occur in Pakistan, the Middle East, and throughout the world, are incredibly unfortunate. Wayne

Frankly, I think it is in very poor taste for commentators, candidates' aides, or candidates themselves to try to exploit this tragedy for political gain. This was a courageous, vibrant leader who believed so much in her country's future, that she willingly risked her life, and sadly, paid the ultimate sacrifice. For candidates to try and capitalize on this horrific event in any way is utterly disgraceful, in my opinion.

The post above on Romney is very interesting. I always thought he was a shady charactor. ALSO the murder of Benazir Bhutto was a needless tragedy. President Musharraf did not give her adequate security, and in my opinion he was probably in on it. I don't care how public the areas are that she appears in. If her security was conducted properly, her murder could have been prevented. HOW COULD THAT GUNMAN GET THAT CLOSE TO HER? HE WAS ABLE TO SHOOT HER THREE TIMES AT CLOSE RANGE. I think it was an inside job. So Sad. What a waste of a Great Person.

Now if that is true what does that say about the Bill and Hill show? As you read Hill's remarks you can see that she is really trying to use this to bolster her imiage.
CC, boston, ma (Sent Thursday, December 27, 2007 12:03 PM)

I don't know if the Clintons encouraged her to go back to Pakistan or not, but she is a grown woman - a strong woman - who can certainly make up her own mind about these things. More likely, she felt that her presence was needed in her home country - that her people needed to return to more moderate policies. She is not the first leader to return to a politically unstable, dangerous country with hopes of bringing about reform. To insinuate that Bill or Hillary is in any way responsible for this tragedy is completely and utterly ignorant.

Throwing bad money after bad money doesn't seem helpful. She might be alive today if the Bush administration's efforts in this regard were successful.

If you are the first to respond, it can very well sound from the heart. If you are the 15th individual to respond, you are jumping on the wagon to be heard, and it looks tacky.

I feel that I am pretty educated, not a genius by any means, but would someone please explain how every Republican should have blood on their hands for this assasination? I just cannot figure this out.

Personally, blamming a horrific act like this, in any degree, in such a blanket format is shameless and self serving. If I may make an assumption, if there is anything else wrong in this individual's life, someone else is to blame, and they are probably a Republican.

While Bush and the rest of the warmongering GOP have been trying to scare the daylights out of the American public about the nonexistent "threat" of Iranian nukes, the real threat has been growing in Pakistan. It's a nation with real nuclear weapons that could really fall into the hands of Islamic extremists who would use them any way they could if they got their hands on them. But Bush has been too busy destroying Iraq to worry about Bin Laden, whom Bush said at one point he didn't even bother to think about anymore (not that he thinks much about anything). Somebody ought to start thinking about Bin Laden again.
