Obama Defeated as Dictator In Chief: Obama's Executive Order Reforming Welfare Work Rules and Circumventing Congress, Must Be Submitted To Congress and Confirmed By the GAO Before It Can Become Law.

<<<<<  Did he or did he not change the work rules of the Clinton Welfare Reform Law?  The GAO has the definitive answer.  

 Whatever happened to the debate that “Obama had gutted the work requirement written into the Clinton welfare/work reform law?” 

Well, as it turns out, there is an official investigative body that passes judgment on such matters.  It is called the Government Accountability Office (GAO) and it is charged  with examining matters relating to the receipt and payment of public funds.   It is my understanding that Congress can ignore its directive,  but at its own [pr] peril.  In fact,  Congress never ignores the directive of the GAO.  

On the first day of the DNC, last week,  the  GAO announced it had determined that Obama had,  in fact, changed the work rules found in the Clinton era Welfare Reform Act,  despite all denials to the contrary.  More than this,  the GAO issued this demand:  "It must be submitted to Congress and the comptroller general before taking effect," GAO general counsel Lynn H. Gibson wrote to lawmakers on Tuesday. 

"This analysis is unequivocal that any changes must be submitted to Congress," Hatch  said. "Circumventing Congress, as this White House has done, is a flagrant abuse of our system of checks and balances and an insult to American taxpayers.”
