I believe Obama knows he will be beaten this year, and he is in high speed wrecking mode.
Doing all he can as fast as he can to destroy America.
Rush, you dint mentioned the part about Oblowme using this to buy votes. But the rest was good. We should hear about this on the Alphabet channels in any minute now, right?
When I read the title I knew it was to screw Clinton. He hates Clinton and trying to undo all the programs he put into place. Not only welfare reform but also Don’t ask don’t tell. It appears that Rush agrees with me.
Rush is right - it should be in an ad.
Hopefully, it will be - it can be another following the theme of “another reason you cannot trust Barack Obama”.
His damn supporters DON’T WORK and they DON’T PAY TAXES!!!! These people should not be listened to!!
And the sound of crickets comes from the GOP. They should be impeaching the POS.
Welfare Under the Obama Administration: Bed Rest as Work
An Analysis of How the Obama Administration is Undermining Welfare Reform
WASHINGTON - In a questionable guidance scheme released yesterday to states, the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) believes it can unilaterally grant itself the authority to exempt states from the work requirements that were a critical element of welfare reform and that could allow states to allow things like bed rest, smoking cessation and exercise to count as a work activity to receive these government benefits.
The 1996 welfare reform bill, otherwise known as the Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF), ended welfare as an entitlement and empowered states with the authority to create unique and robust welfare to work programs. A central feature of devolution of federal authority back to the states was a vigorous work requirement for states, including a specific set of activities that qualified as “work.”
Over the years, as states used the reduction in the welfare caseload to mitigate compliance with the 1996 TANF work requirement, the focus on vital welfare to work initiatives diminished.
In 2005, the nonpartisan Government Accountability Office reported that several states listed as part of their definition of a “federal work activity” under TANF the following:
1. Bed rest
2. Personal care activities
3. Massage
4. Exercise
5. Journaling
6. Motivational reading
7. Smoking cessation
8. Weight loss promotion
9. Participating in parent teacher meetings
10. Helping a friend or relative with household tasks and errands

Sure hope that's a typo. Wouldn't surprise me if it isn't.
