This issue has really been both a good and bad part of this campaign. Good, in that the media has finally become willing to step up and say "that's not true". Bad, because Democrats are really starting to engage in post-truth politics themselves (see: the ad where it's implied Romney killed the dude's wife).
So as the Professor asked.. If you support as Obama said he did "work requirements for welfare" then why are they making it easier to NOT work and get welfare check?

FACT:
"If the Obama administration believes in work requirements, why write something so broad?" Besharov asked me. "If I believed in the work requirements, I wouldn't put in language encouraging states to lift them all."
That's the suspicion of Douglas Besharov, a public policy professor at the University of Maryland, who in 1996 helped persuade Hillary Clinton to support the law.
So what is wrong with asking people on welfare to at least apply for a low-wage job????...
Why is it important to attach work mandates to welfare checks?
One reason is that it weeds out people who are poor because they prefer not to put up with the demands of an employer.
Weeding those out saves money.
Another is that it pushes recipients to do something that may be unappealing in the short run -- take a low-wage job -- but will serve their interests in the long run. Even in today's slow economy, notes Mead, only 12 percent of the nonworking poor say they can't find a job.

That ad did not come from the Obama campaign and nothing the guy SAID in the ad was a lie. He told HIS personal story about Bain.
Conversely, the lying Welfare came from and was approved by Romney.
It's not "same same".

Get back to me when the MSP actually refutes one of Obama's lies.

I'm not beholden to anyone, so I don't feel a need to defend things I think are wrong. Yes, the Obama campaign didn't technically have control over the ad, but if you really think Super PACs aren't coordinating messages with campaigns, you're extremely naive.

Bullshit. It was on Obama's fucking website, you dumb hack.
Oh, and.... that guy did lie in that ad... his 'personal story' was as true as fucking Harry Potter - utter fantasy.
Coming from the "Romney is a felon and killed my wife Party" the OP is comedy, right?

Romney did perjury himself at some point, since he said under oath on one occasion that he was CEO of Bain until 2002, and on another occasion said he was resigned as CEO in 1999. Two statements which can't both be true, and both made under oath.
