Bullshit. The article directly referenced reporting done by the Boston Globe, LA Times, and the Salt Lake Tribune. Duck, dodge, and weave - that's all you've got.
Few of the so called
Here is one of the folks from your phony hit piece.My partners were Ricardo Poma, Miguel Duenas, Pancho Soler, Frank Kardonski, and Diego Ribandinarea.
From the article in YOUR SOURCE:
"I owe a great deal to Americans of Latin American descent. When I was starting my business, I came to Miami to find partners that would believe in me, and that would finance my enterprise. My partners were Ricardo Poma, Miguel Duenas, Pancho Soler, Frank Kardonski, and Diego Ribandinarea.
"These friends didn't just help me, they taught me. Ricardo's brother had been tortured and murdered by rebel terrorists in El Salvador. Miguel himself had been chained to a floor in Guatemala for weeks, and tortured. And their torturers were financed by Fidel Castro. I learned from these friends about the human cost when Castro has money.
"So many of you here, in profound and personal ways, know all too well the precious value of liberty – and the agonizing pain of tyranny. You have seen it your families, your friends, your neighbors, and in your own lives.

You are full of shit. Talk about cherry-picking! Here's the next lines from the article;
Romney could also have thanked investors from two other wealthy and powerful Central American clans -- the de Sola and Salaverria families, who the Los Angeles Times and Boston Globe have reported were founding investors in Bain Capital.
While they were on the lookout for investments in the United States, members of some of these prominent families -- including the Salaverria, Poma, de Sola and Dueñas clans -- were also at the time financing, either directly or through political parties, death squads in El Salvador. The ruling classes were deploying the death squads to beat back left-wing guerrillas and reformers during El Salvador's civil war.
The death squads committed atrocities on such a mass scale for so small a country that their killing spree sparked international condemnation. From 1979 to 1992, some 75,000 people were killed in the Salvadoran civil war, according to the United Nations. In 1982, two years before Romney began raising money from the oligarchs, El Salvador's independent Human Rights Commission reported that, of the 35,000 civilians killed, "most" died at the hands of death squads. A United Nations truth commission concluded in 1993 that 85 percent of the acts of violence were perpetrated by the right, while the left-wing Farabundo Martí National Liberation Front, which was supported by the Cuban government, was responsible for 5 percent.
Wonder why Willard didn't thank those guys?
Here's a pic of Willard and his Bain buddies celebrating their initial funding which largely came from blood money;
Nice.

Sorry, NOT ONE of the sources mention anything about "blood money" except the original article in HuffingtonPost. Not one. Nor can anything negative be found about any of those people in simply "Bing" searches other than what I posted.
You got skunked. How do you like your crow?

[font=Arial Black]The article is clearly supported by reporting done by the Boston Globe, LA Times, and Salt Lake Tribune. Just because they didn't characterize these capital investments as "blood money", does not change any of the FACTS. Continue dancing, Markie ...
... you're kickin' ass.
