[That could put Pakistan at a serious disadvantage. A patriotic president could exploit this reg. Pakistan, but Obama usually finds ways to make things like this backfire, such as stepping backwards in missile defense while smart nations step forward and thus make themselves like tanks that can blast any nuisance while safe behind armor shielding.]

Governor’s Budget ‘Poor Mouthing’
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-bloggers/2551735/posts

Granholm cried poverty recently, claiming that her administration already cut 11,000 state employees... but the reduction hasn’t saved taxpayers any money, because due to higher compensation levels we’re paying more overall... total compensation costs jumped from $3.9 billion in fiscal year 2001 to $4.7 billion in 2008... The average state employee now costs taxpayers $93,039 to employ for a year... the $787 million cost increase since 2001 is more than enough to triple the appropriations to community colleges. It also puts a different spin on the governor’s claim that she “negotiated more than $650 million in employee concessions.”
