"Carolyn, most of them were hired during the Bush years and laid off during the OBAMA administration. Government is getting smaller under OBAMA."


Sorry Ken but that is just NOT TRUE. Total federal employment under the eight years of Bush was relatively flat. Under Obama it grew from 4,127,000 in 2007 to 4,443,000 in 2010. That is an increase of 316,000 people or +7.1%.
