Jake Tapper @ ABC News:
Obama deputy campaign manager Stephanie Cutter pushed back this morning on “This Week” against any suggestion that she knew the details behind the death of a woman whose husband, Joe Soptic, appeared in a third party advertisement attacking Mitt Romney.
The advertisement, which essentially places blame on Romney for the death of Soptic’s wife from cancer, was paid for by Priorities USA, a super PAC that supports President Obama.
“I didn’t know the facts of when Mr. Soptic’s wife got sick, and I only recently learned that through all of the hysteria over that ad,” Cutter said “But, Jake, what I do know is what Mr. Soptic’s experience was with GST Steel, after Mitt Romney bought it, loaded it up with debt, overleveraged it, paid himself excess profits and fees, but then forced that company into bankruptcy, leaving Mr. Soptic without a job, without health care, and without his pension.”
Cutter has maintained that she was not familiar with the details of Mr. Soptic’s wife’s death even though she was on a conference call that featured Soptic in May.

So, what this woman is saying is that she only knows ‘half’ the story and will run with it… and the half the story “she does know” is “Not True” either… Sheesh!?!
MSM and this woman are a bunch of dimwits….and Liars
Once again 0blama and his disgusting team have proven themselves disgusting and incompetent. America needs to see past the MSM bias and realize wha a loser 0blama is!!
stephanie must have amnesia. In early May she introduced Soptic to the democrats including barry and was involved in the interview with him . If I am not mistaken, there was a filming conducted during that time period too. Now if you look at the color of his shirt in the ‘interview’ in May and the color of his shirt in the recent commercial, it is the same. That might make one believe the two were filmed at the same setting.
When one starts to lie you have to tell another lie to cover up the previous one and it goes on and on and pretty soon you have no idea what the truth is, even if you hear it.
