What's your current fav Mutt and Pal lie

and the one most frequently used by their minions whose minds are colored with stupid dishonesty, forming a perfect marriage between the two.

Mine is the "he tried to gut welfare" one.

Why? Well, because I find it fitting that they should choose an issue that is synonymous with "poor", which matches (actually they are almost completely lacking in intellect and integrity) the state of their intellectual shallowness and lack of integrity.

Washington (CNN) -- Welfare reform, which added a work requirement tied to welfare benefits, is often cited as a major bipartisan political success of President Bill Clinton's second term.

So the idea of the next Democratic president, Barack Obama, taking the work requirement off the table is political dynamite.

Apparently, the Romney campaign believes it is.

A Romney campaign ad titled "Welfare Reform," which came out earlier in August, says that's just what Obama did.

"On July 12, President Obama quietly ended the work requirement, gutting welfare reform. One of the most respected newspapers in the country called it 'nuts,' " the ad says.

"Under Obama's plan, you wouldn't have to work and you wouldn't have to train for a job," the ad continues. "They just send you your welfare check. And welfare to work goes back to being plain old welfare ..."

But the Obama campaign calls Romney's ad "nuts."

CNN's Fact-check agrees.

Clinton calls out 'disappointing' Romney ad

"Every single person here who's looked at it says it's patently false," Obama said a news conference on Monday.
