Over 113,000 new Federal jobs or Federal contractor jobs have been made in the greater DC-Georgetown metropolitan statistical area since the first notion of recession in late 2007.

The state of Virginia is feeding off the largess of the pillaging of the American people through unsustainable deficit spending and devaluation of the national currency.

Well thanks Jersey, for your brilliant fiscal analysis. But you need to realize that not all 113,000 of those jobs are necessarily held by Virginians. It is true, however, that the federal government is the largest employer in Northern Virginia.

But to say that it’s just the impact of the federal government that fills Virginia’s coffers is simply ignorance. In spite of that, Mark Warner and Tim Kaine managed to decimate Virginia’s budget, crying every year for higher taxes.

Bob McDonnell in 6 months has managed to close a $4.2 billion shortfall, end up with a budget and to it all without raising taxes.
