Obamateurism of the Day « Hot Air: "Just remember — Obama was for the $87 billion before he was against it against the government jobs before he was for them.  Besides, he’s wrong on both counts.  Federal government jobs — the jobs for which Obama is directly responsible — have increased by 29,000 during his term in office.  When Democrats controlled Congress in the first two years of his presidency, federal jobs increased by 83,000, and peaked in March 2011 at 89,000 above the level when Obama took office.  At that point, Republicans forced him to compromise on the remainder of the FY2011 budget — and by the end of the year, the federal workforce had trimmed 43,000 jobs, with another 12,000 reductions this year so far.  One party seems at least a little interested in getting rid of bloat, but it’s not Obama and the Democrats."
