Nice Deb; Saturday Movie Matinee: Obama Flips on Welfare Reform "As we ponder Obama’s latest unilateral move to gut welfare reform, let us remember what he told the gullible Pastor Rick Warrren of the Saddleback Church just four short years ago: “We have to have work as a centerpiece of any social policy”."

Obama's Flip-Flop-Flip on Welfare Reform "A little something I threw together to highlight this guy's latest move giving states an option out of the welfare reforms passed under Bill Clinton (read: Newt Gingrich) in 1996. The food stamp "voting block" has doubled since Obama's election--do you think this "special interest" group is being pandered to?"
NRO; Obama Ends Welfare Reform As We Know It "In the past, state bureaucrats have attempted to define activities such as hula dancing, attending Weight Watchers, and bed rest as “work.” Welfare reform instituted work standards to block these dodges. Now that the Obama administration has abolished those standards, we can expect “work” in the TANF program to mean anything but work.

" "Obama’s new welfare decree guts sound anti-poverty policy. The administration tramples on the actual legislation passed by Congress and seeks to impose its own policy choices — a pattern that has become all too common in this administration." "
