(The Root) -- The Romney-Ryan ticket suffers from pathological hypocrisy.
On Monday, President Obama made a rare appearance in the White House pressroom and addressed false claimsin a Mitt Romney campaign commercial that asserts Obama's administration is turning back the clock on the welfare reform of 1996 by doing away with the requirement that welfare recipients work after two years on assistance, with few exceptions. The ad refers to a recent memo from the Department of Health and Human Services offering states a waiver to the1996 rules, but only if they develop plans that increase work opportunities by 20 percent.
why is "welfare carries such an odious tone, when they fight for it even in their sleep?  maybe it's the kind of welfare that sticks in their craw. 
they claim the poor and ethnics that includes their definition of white trash, don't need it they should work for it. even though they have blocked every job propsal in the last 4 years.
when it comes to corporate welfare they kick the former to the curb in favor of the really don't need it big business, oil subsidies, really?
Yes. Romney is now attacking the president for granting a request that Romney himself made. Are pigs flying? Has hell frozen over?
they are still forgetting "it's on video tape stupid". they really by deed just don't care what "we the people" think if they think their base will carry them through on their shoulders, this decades biggest over estimation.  "smiling faces"       http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MgA2Sn3b6OM
