The Big Lie Works (?)

"There's no plausible scenario under which it really constitutes a serious attack on welfare reform," Ron Haskins, who is now co-director of the Brookings Institution's Center on Children and Families, said in an interview with NPR that aired on Wednesday.
Haskins spent 14 years on the staff of the House Ways and Means Committee's Human Resources Subcommittee, first as welfare counsel to the Republican staff, then as the subcommittee’s staff director. In 2002, he was President George W. Bush's senior adviser on welfare policy.
Willard seems unable to convince "the base" of his credibility as a true conservative, so I think that's why he can't let up on the bullshit. The wingnuts insist on hearing nothing but "Obama's a bad guy", so that's what he has to give them every day.
