A day after the Obama campaign countered Mitt Romney's strong debate performance by accusing him of playing fast and loose with the facts, President Obama threw out a doozy of his own. 

At a rally Friday in Fairfax, Va., Obama claimed Romney had outright rejected his proposal to end tax breaks for oil and gas companies. 
"He said there's no way that he'd close the loophole that gives big oil companies billions each year in corporate warfare," Obama said, in the middle of a litany of complaints on Romney's tax positions from Wednesday's debate. 
Just one problem. Romney didn't say that. 
Rather, the Republican nominee said that if tax rates are lowered as his plan calls for, the $2.8 billion in breaks for oil companies should be on the table. 

Here's what Romney said: 
"But, you know, if we get that tax rate from 35 percent down 
to 25 percent, why that $2.8 billion is on the table. Of course it's 
on the table. That's probably not going to survive (if) you get that 
rate down to 25 percent."
