As off color this ad is, it is now been proven to be another Obama lie by none other than CNN. This man's wife died of cancer 5 years after the steel mill closed in which some of that time she did have insurance through her employer.
CNN Takes Apart Obama Super-PAC Ad Blaming Romney for Woman's Cancer Death, Tells Obama Aide 'It's Full of Falsehoods'
WOLF BLITZER: Brianna, on the surface, it seems pretty outrageous to blame Mitt Romney for the death of this woman. That's a pretty outrageous claim, but what's going on here?
BRIANNA KEILAR: It does when you dig deeper here, Wolf, because this ad makes it sound like this woman passed away shortly after Bain Capital closed down the steel plant where her husband worked. But in reality, she passed away five years after it closed.
And the former steel worker in this ad, I spoke to him on the phone today, and he said that during some of that time, his wife had insurance through her employer. So, Wolf, this is a heart-wrenching story, but it's not accurate.
Again ....more lies from Obama. And keep this in mind as well. Under Obamacare not only would this man have lost his wife anyway, he would have been fined for not having health insurance.
