Mitt Romney’s campaign on Monday renewed its attacks on President Obama over a change to the federal welfare-to-work program, claiming in a new commercial that the president “has a long history of opposing work-for-welfare.”
The ad’s narrator argues that “on July 12, Obama quietly ended work requirements for welfare. You wouldn’t have to work and wouldn’t have to train for a job. Mitt Romney strongly believes work must be part of welfare.”
And the ad features audio of Obama, then an Illinois state senator, saying in 1998 that he “was not a huge supporter of the federal plan that was signed in 1996.”

Congress is the law makers in this country. Obama take a oath to uphold the laws and the Consitution. So far he has broke this law on welfare reform and the Illegal Mexican laws. Obama is acting like a King and not a President. We got rid of King George already.
