Three Carlyle founders each land a $138m payday
With the private equity sector facing scrutiny in the public sphere during the Republican nomination race, one firm's founders enjoy a massive payout
Dominic Rushe guardian.co.uk, Wednesday 11 January 2012 17.24 EST

The trio who founded private equity powerhouse Carlyle Group took home more than $400m in compensation last year, according to a regulatory filing.

The huge payday for the firm, which claims presidents and prime ministers among its advisers, comes as the private equity industry has fallen under intense scrutiny over the course of the race for the Republican nomination.

Current GOP frontrunner Mitt Romney has come under fire for his time at Carlyle rival Bain Capital, where he amassed a large personal fortune.

Carlyle founders David Rubenstein, Bill Conway and Daniel D'Aniello each received $138m in pay last year, according to documents filed with the top US financial watchdog the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).

They watched real time coverage of the attack on the WTC together.

Looks like great-great-grandma (at the age of 65) has fallen off her rocker.

Wait, what?

It's the fault of Dunkin Donuts for 9/11?

I wonder what these DUmmies think about the new CEO of Apple computer getting $378 million in compensation last year.

Well that's completely different, the DUchebags approve of apple.
When you are the beneficiary of someone’s kindness and generosity, it produces a sense of gratitude and community.

When you are the beneficiary of a policy that steals from someone and gives it to you in return for your vote, it produces a sense of entitlement and dependency.

The DUmmies approve of Apple, but I'm sure they feel everyone who works there is insufficiently taxed, and anyone making over $100,000 should be killed.

They're just predatory capitalists.

I never in my life believed I'd hear Newt agreeing with the DUmbasses.

As he would say, I'm fundamentally astonished.

I know.  I don't believe he's quite in his head. 

Speaking of working for Apple, remember when Taverner said he used to "work" for Steve Jobs?  That was great.  What happened to that sweet gig?  He would have pulling down a nice chunk of change, if it was true.

I don't think he can call it "working for Steve Jobs" when he finds an iPod in a purse he snatched. I'm sure Apple employs some drug abusers, but not semi-conscious nodding junkies like Taverner.
 
Was he the deadbeat who was going to work for a Swedish company and get 12 weeks vacation, cradle-to-grave unlimited benefits, etc., just like a eurotrash employee?

Yeah, that was another one of his pipe dreams/made up stories.

I hope those ****ers and others like them choke on the money. It's time to storm their mansions and drag their asses out into the streets. 

A favorite phrase of the DUmmies, "it's time!"  Meanwhile, there they lounge.
