Looks like most media missed this story...

He's gutted the work requirement portion of Clinton's welfare reform.

How dare the HHS grant the states more flexibility, a strong federal government is needed . . . uh, what? . . .

While the TANF work participation requirements are contained in section 407, section 402(a)(1)(A)(iii) requires that the state plan “[e]nsure that parents and caretakers receiving assistance under the program engage in work activities in accordance with section 407.” Thus, HHS has authority to waive compliance with this 402 requirement and authorize a state to test approaches and methods other than those set forth in section 407, including definitions of work activities and engagement, specified limitations, verification procedures, and the calculation of participation rates.

I though that President Obama felt that laws passed by Congress are inviolable, Wasn't that the argument before the Supreme Court--that they had no right to over turn a law passed by Congress.
But, OTOH, its acceptable for a President, by fiat, to do exactly the same thing--overturn a law passed by Congress.
Hypocrisy, anyone?

B.O. is no different than most any other slick politician. Hypocrisy is their way of life, their life blood.
