Whereas you, on the other hand seem to be saying that the reason for the ""gigantic" swelling in the number of gov't employees" is because jobs are all going overseas.  Wow, there's a leap of logic!

 

You claim that the number of Federal employees hasn't grown 15% over the last 10 years.  Where do you get that information?  Drip out of your red rubber bulb?

 

One of the left's favorite groups of the PPU, the Council on Foriegn Relations, in a Wall Street Journal article a year ago, pegged the nine year growth rate at that time at 18%, without counting Postal Workers.

 You also claim that the "vast" majority of such growth was in the

anti-terrorrism and national security sectors.  Any documentation to back that up?  At any rate, I was pretty sure that you would be in favor of more people at the airport with blue gloves to ignore people in Islamic dress and feel everyone else up.   (BTW, don't flatter yourself that everytime I bitch about something I'm against that you are in a position to hear about it.)

 I note one more thing that is decipherable in your rather disjointed rant, namely that you appear to have forgotten that it was your party with Johnson at the helm, who Hijacked the Social Security Trust Fund and put it into the general budget so as to spend it on their half baked utopian ideas.

 

CEOs of Medicare and SS???   Well, I see that you are leaving the reality plane in mid flight again, but I won't be going out there with you.  Catch you later.

We listened to your paranoid video, Larry. They claim that the reason there was a  "gigantic" swelling in the number of gov't employees was because of a sinister plan by the gov't to increase it's own size, and not because jobs were all going overseas. Nor does he mention that the vast majority of the new gov't employees (Which was NOT 15%) was in the anti-terrorism and national security fields - Which DIRECTLY profits the defense industry.

Does THAT contribute to "Big Government"? Sure as hell does, but, strangely, I don't hear you bitching about it. Slash Medicare and Social Security until they reach the point where they have to be privatized in order to "save" them, suuuuuure, but, NO NO NO, musn't touch the sacred "We're The Only Thing Protecting Grammaw From The Invading Hordes" behind-closed-door buddies - Who will leave Grammaw and Grampaw to die when they can't pay the bills that will go through the roof when the same bastards that "protect" us now are running the programs that were put in place by dirty, dirty "Big Gov't" to actually protect Grammaw and Grampaw from people like them.

After the CEO's of Medicare and SS have hogged the majority of the taxpayer's dollars that were intended to see to it that the elderly and the unfortunate ate something besides cat food, well - then, The anti-Big Gov crowd will sadly, sadly shrug and go, "Well...OBVIOUSLY there will have to be an increase in taxes - Just not for any of the businesses that, instead of creating jobs or investing in America, simply kicked government OUT of the governing game, and put themselves in it's place. Nooooooooooo, we ain't gonna ask a dime from THEM. Why, we'd all DIE without them. In fact, let's give 'em another fat tax break as a sign of our, uh, gratitude."

So you are saying that more voters work for military contractors than work for  government itself at all levels?  You may want to rethink that.

Name calling is neither necessary, or desirable. Stop it.

Here's something else to whine about:

Larry's one of those ass-biting economic trolls who would rather wreck what's left of the US economy purely so he can blame it all on Obama during the next campaign.

 

Remember, when you've placed Supreme Faith in your opinions...Who the hell needs actual FACTS? Not ol' Larr, nor the Tea party dingbats he sent to congress, who fight like hell against a dime of tax money being spent on anything unrelated to Jesus, or that doesn't fatten their own wallets.

 

Speaking of which...Tell me, Larry - How do you feel about Michelle Bachmann's screw-eyed hubby taking Medicare money to "fix them gays" with his 100% scientifically disproved "therapies"? You know, the ones where they "cure homosexuality" by shoving Jesus and the bible down the throats of the "patients" - Many of whom were "admitted" against their will - All while lying to government investigators about doing exactly that?

 

Funny, ain't it, how the Republican "woman" who's so against Medicare fraud is....defrauding medicare?  Well, in the eyes of a froot-loop like Michelle, that just proves that EVERYBODY must be doing it, so MEDICARE MUST GO!
