TMZ is reporting the following:

Mitt Romney LIED under oath when he testified in the divorce of his good friend and screwed the friend's wife out of a lot of money in the process ... so claims the ex-wife of Staples' founder TomStemberg.
Multiple sources connected with the divorce tell TMZ ... during Tom's uber nasty divorce case with ex-wife Maureen, Mitt Romney gave a deposition and testified during the trial that Staples was worth virtually nothing. Romney testified that the company was worth very little and Tom was a dreamer and "the dream continues."

Romney characterized the Staples stock as "overvalued," adding, "I didn't place a great deal of credibility in the forecast of the company's future."

Partly as a result of Romney's testimony, Maureen got relatively little in the divorce, but we're told just weeks after the divorce ended, Romney and Tom went to Goldman Sachs and cashed in THEIR stock for a fortune. Short story -- Romney allegedly lied to help his friend and screw the friend's wife over.

Additionally, the Boston Globe and attorney Gloria Allred were in court in Boston this morning to get court records in the case unsealed. The case was continued until Thursday.

While both Romney and Bain are trying desperately to cling to the lie that Romney left Bain in 1999, the SEC's EDGAR database shows that Bain was singing a different tune in 2001. Contrary to Romney and Bain’s current lies, in 2001 Bain filed a document with the SEC stating that Romney was the sole control person of Bain and that his principle occupation was being a managing director at Bain.

The document in question is a Schedule 13D for US LEC Corp. dated February 11, 2001 filed by Bain Capital Fund VI, L.P. You can view it here. Schedule 13D

A Schedule 13D is used to disclose ownership in a corporation. Here, Bain is making the disclosure. Here is the electronic signature:

It seems Santa has come early to Pakistan this year. This morning I read in my local newspaper that the Obama Administration has ended drone attacks and stopped raining death on the people of Pakistan.

This is a great decision and good for Obama for making it.

CIA has suspended drone attacks in Pakistan, U.S. officials say

Sorry, but extending the debt only maintains the status quo. As the status quo sucks for working Americans, there is simply no reason we need to fund the status quo by taking on more debt. The debt limit shouldn’t be raised–and here’s

Health insurance companies claim that they rescind, or retroactivly cancel, individual health insurance policies only .5% of the time. While 1/2 of one percent seems to be a small number, it is really stunningly huge.

Obama claims that he didn't want to release the torture photos because it would hurt the troops and the war effort. There is a better idea, one that would immediately improve America's image all around the world.

Release the photos, and at the same time announce that America was going to investigate torture, and prosecute everyone up and down the chain of command, from Bush to the lowest GI, if they helped or ordered torture. Nothing could do more to improve our country's image, especially in the Moslem world.

No matter what you think or how you feel about Israel and Gaza, I hope we can all agree that the violence should stop. Digby says it best, and tells us what we can do to help.

This is yet another edition of "what Digby said." Please sign the petition at J Street http://www.jstreet.org/...

Obama is AGAINST gay marriage. Why is it a shock to anyone that he invited a preacher who is also against gay marriage to provide the opening prayer at his Inauguration?

While this may too short for a diary entry, I'd really like to see the questions everyone would like to ask Ms. Palin if they were moderating tonight's debate. If you could place your question in the heading, so much the better.

Where the hell is Joe Biden? While the GOP liars are out there making shit up 24-7, Joe's nowhere to be seen.

He needs to be on the attack, every single day. He didn't get the VP nomination because he's a reformer. He got it because he's a smart attack dog. So, where is he?

Simply put, McCain and Palin are both liars. Someone from Obama's campaign needs to be out there spreading the word. It's Joe's job, and he needs to start doing his job NOW! Let's not blow another election by doing nothing while the GOP makes shit up.

Obama didn't screw me on FISA because he now thinks the FISA capitulation was a great idea. He screwed me because he and the democratic party leadership decided they didn't want the GOP to paint Obama as "weak" on terror during his campaign.

This pisses me off for a number of reasons.
