President Obama gutted welfare reform. Fact checkers, the elite media and the White House have been in full spin mode pushing lies about how his redefinition of work requirements actually strengthened the 1996 landmark law pushed by Newt Gingrich and Republicans. That couldn't be more false based on the premise alone, but also on a new report from the Congressional Research Service. It turns out that suspending the work requirement for welfare recipients has doubled the amount of able-bodied adults on food stamps since Obama's phony $787 billion stimulus bill was rammed into law.
