CNN - Obama PAC ad a lie - cancer victim had insurance

CNN: Wife of steelworker in new Obama Super PAC ad still had job and health insurance after he lost his

I wonder if Bill Burton and crew knew about this and greenlit the smear anyway or if they didn’t care enough to even find out. Why would they? The point of calling Romney a murderer is to keep him on the defensive; the more ridiculous the charge is, the more media/online oxygen it sucks up and the less air there is for Mitt’s own attacks on O to breathe. They tried a straightforward offensive against Romney’s complex private equity record a few months ago but the results were inconclusive. Now they’re trying again with a bolder, simpler narrative: Romney’s layoffs literally killed people. If you’re a low-information voter who pays attention to this stuff in bits and pieces, a story you’re half-listening to about a rich guy and a steelworker and a plant closing and a young wife tragically dying from cancer sounds really bad, even if it’s a gross smear. In fact, the grosser the smear, the more compelling the half-listened-to story seems. Right, Harry?

The Republican candidate left Bain before GST Steel’s 2001 bankruptcy; Obama’s team has argued that the story is fair because Romney was at Bain when the initial investment was made. Politico notes that Ranae Soptic died in 2006, long after the plant closed, and CNN adds that at some points during that time she had insurance through her own employer.
Romney spokesman Ryan Williams called the ad one of many “discredited and dishonest attacks” meant to “conceal the administration’s deplorable economic record.”

Another outright lie from Obama - the Liar in Chief. I can't wait for all the lying sick liberals (can you say Lady Jazzer) to weight in on this one. Have fun. I'll be back this afternoon and see what kind of lying lefty spin can be put on this.

This has to get the prize for the most despicable tv ad ever. These ignorant leftist hacks must think the viewers are so stupid that they would link this woman's death to Romney. These people are really digging deep into the sleaze bucket now.. keep it up assholes, this is painting an excellent picture of a desperate campaign.

The left is angry because they are now being judged by the content of their character and not by the color of their skin.

I blame Obama for my cancer... The Cash for Clunkers failure hurt the used car industry which caused me great stress... that stress manifested itself as a malignant tumor. He just doesn't care about me!

What's most amazing is all the liberals that are complicit in these outright lies by supporting and spreading the stories. Like Raees, Lady Jazzer, Archer and Something the Dog Said. If Romney wasn't a public figure, this bunch would be sued for libel.

More info about Super Pacs and why they can't be touched, even though their message may distasteful.

My issue isn't with PAC's... it's with lies.
