One of the steelworkers who spoke at the DNC claiming that he was a steelworker who was fired by Bain was not a steelworker, and did not work for Bain.

Steelworker Featured at DNC Didn’t Work for Bain Capital

ABC News breaks a story that one of the three featured speakers supposedly deprived of a job by Bain Capital is just a union negotiator who never worked for a Bain-financed company. The Democrat Party deliberately misrepresented steel union negotiator David Foster as someone who worked under the Romney-controlled Bain Capital.

ABC News reports:

    The Democratic National Convention on Wednesday featured three speakers billed as “former employees of companies controlled by Bain Capital.” [...]

    David Foster was supposedly one of those former employees on the convention schedule. He told the story about 750 steelworkers who lost their jobs when the Bain-controlled company GST steel filed for bankruptcy in the early 1990s.

    But Foster, according to a former spokesman for GST Steel, never actually worked for the company.”

It is so typical for the Dems and union thugs to lie. I hope to God that obama loses by the biggest landslide in political history.

They act as if Romney's track record is as bad as 0bama's when in reality when he was at Bain he had like an 80% success rate, which is way better than 0bama's rate of 0%.
I may not lock my doors while sitting at a red light and a black man is near, but I sure as hell grab on tight to my wallet when any democrats are close by.

There are two things that amaze me--that ABC would actually out the dems on this lie and that the dems honestly think that they won't get trapped in their blatant lies. I guess they think that the press is totally complicit, but sometimes even the MSM can't overlook all the BS of the dems.

When I saw it was ABC, I was quite surprised myself.

Same here especially since they totally ignored the phony platform vote.  I expect that reporter may be looking for work soon.

I am thinking the same thing. It sucks that you can't print the truth anymore.

Libs will keep fact checkers busy indefinitely.
There were only two options for gender. At last count there are at least 12, according to libs. By that standard, I'm a male lesbian.

That can be a career that is in demand. Fact checking liberals. You would never run out of work.

What's the problem? It's fake, but accurate.
“The national budget must be balanced. The public debt must be reduced; the arrogance of the authorities must be moderated and controlled. Payments to foreign governments must be reduced, if the nation doesn't want to go bankrupt. People must again learn to work, instead of living on public assistance.”
