-- mean everybody's talking about Julia.

A woman who depending on your point of view was either leveraging government assistance to achieve personal success for.

Has become a chronic depended on the nanny state.

And as chief national correspondent Jim Angle tells us the most interesting part of this story is.

The Julia isn't even real.

The White House is -- an unrelenting campaign to attract women voters the latest -- is -- web video called the life of Julia.

Which tells how much the Obama administration is spending on women and every stage of life from preschool to retirement.

The reason that that that they're doing this is because if you look at polls women prefer an activist government but by a much larger margins than men do the conservative Heritage Foundation has a web video of its own and to competing message -- -- -- showing is this is up nearly cradle to grave government taking care of every America and all across the country.

The White House web video stars with a three year old Giuliani and -- in a head start program.

Which the web video says -- better quote.

Because of steps President Obama has taken to improve programs like this one and then it goes after Mitt Romney in the Paul Ryan budget saying head start would be cut.

By 20%.

Leaving the program would -- over 200000.

Fewer slots per year.

Here's what the Republicans would do is is really it perfect contrast.

For the Obama campaign to make.

The White House no -- cuts a congressman Ryan has not proposed or other Ryan budget would.

Cast your route alone in the big bad cruel world the Ryan budget doesn't do that.

In fact Ryan doesn't cut programs he only slows future increases in spending.

To 3% a year while the president wants to increase spending by four point 5% a year.

But heritage video takes a different approach noting that reforms -- proposes would reduce federal spending and -- so that -- quote will not be 50000 dollars in debt the day she is born.

The White House version knows what President Obama is doing to women of all ages on everything from surgery to childbearing to retirement.

Including Social Security which it says will quote help her retire comfortably without worrying that -- run out of savings.

-- as it under Mitt Romney -- is benefits could be cut by 40%.

Social Security benefits will already be cut 25%.

Under current law and the program is eleven point three trillion dollars short of being able to pay full benefits as it is.

This is a very very partisan look in an attack it's not a serious policy discussion.

The accusation against -- is based in part on his support for reducing benefits for the wealthy something the Obama administration usually likes John.

Jim Angle forced to nudge.
