Obama for America

"Blatant" +

:30 ad from Aug. 10, 2012 to run in CO, FL, IA, NV, NC, OH and VA.

Obama (voiceover): I'm Barack Obama and I approve this message.

[Music] Male Announcer: Seen this?

Mitt Romney claiming the President would end welfare reform's work requirements?

The New York Times calls it 'blatantly false.'

The Washington Post says, 'the Obama administration is not removing the bill's work requirements at all.' 

In fact Obama's getting states to move 20% more people from welfare to work.

And President Clinton's reaction to the Romney ad?

It's just not true.

Get the facts.


Notes: Response to Romney for President ad "Right Choice."

At this point the overall ad campaign had degenerated to a dispiriting back and forth.  See the Romney campaign ad "America Deserves Better" from the same day.
