Romney Possibly Implicated in Medicare Fraud Scandal

Hmmm:

“In the debate the other day, Mitt Romney (made) the claim that he never did business with the government, which is absolutely false,” Rep. Ted Deutch (D-Fla.) said in a conference call with reporters Friday. “In fact, Mitt Romney served on the board and personally pocketed $500,000 from the Damon Corp., a company that was fraudulently bilking Medicare out of millions of dollars.”

Bain Capital bought Damon Corp. in 1989, when Romney was at its head. The firm in 1996 agreed to pay a $116 million fine after pleading guilty to overbilling Medicare from 1988 through 1993, according to PolitiFact. Romney was never charged with wrongdoing.

via Gingrich, Democrats criticize Romney links to Medicare fraud – The Hill’s Healthwatch.

    Apparently, Romney is no [innocent] daisy. I hope Florida voters take a look at this before Tuesday’s vote. Now, I can understand Gingrich more, when he stated that Romney held the truth captive during Thursday’s debate………

      Yes, this has been a disgusting primary season against quite a powerful Government foe with conniving veterans Pelosi, Reid, Schumer and others pulling the levers against the will of the people.
