Obama said that this was offset by the 25 cops who graduated today due to the Stimulus Package. Wow, they must have gotten some intensive training in the two weeks they were there.

The only sectors which had increased employment are

a: Education (federally funded)
b: Government

since the government is taking all the money out of the private sector by reckless spending they are the only ones who can afford to hire employees. Get us to it. My wife and I are currently searching the government job boards, since we will need eat after we get laid off and there will only be one employer left in the country.

I say the Obama nation will start cooking the numbers once they get rid of the Bush hold overs. Then they will be able to cook the books like Clinton did in 1990’s!
