"The federal government needs to fill an estimated 50,000 entry-level jobs in the next year." (under the photo)

Federal Jobs Give Hope To Entry-Level Job Seekers : NPR

This is one of the reasons why Obama isn't fretting his poll numbers.

Besides, you the taxpayer footing the bill, these people will most assuredly vote Democrat for their paychecks. The Republicans, should not fund these 50,000 new hires as they are signing their own obsolescence.

This is almost funny. They only way they can reall y create a job is by putting it on the back of the taxpayer. Wonder how many of those jobs will be border patrol, ICE, or Federal judges to hold deportation hearings? Guess they can now claim 50,000 more jobs created. But will the job stimulous pay for it? LOL

Hire them until after the election, then lay them off in a "cost cutting" move. That would be a typical political maneuver.

Add

typical Obama style maneuver.

Look up where most of the money for the stimulus has been spent. The most has been spent in low income, heavily democratic areas to buy votes and to get those who normally do not vote voting.

Like someone else said, do not count Obama out, he is known to screw over his opponents and find ways to keep certain people from voting.

Believe me, he is a con artist and he will use our tax money to buy off anything and anyone he can.

He needs to be closely watched with regards to any elections.

Come on, the man just committed a federal crime by offering a job to Sestak to drop out but you do not see it going anywhere do you?

There needs to be a total investigation into the Sestak situation and anything that is remotely tampering with peoples votes by Obama and his staff.

Once a con man always a con man and Obama is a well trained con artist.

50,000 jobs is nothing.

Obama is a negative 9 million jobs right now.

He is to blame for the massive job losses since he has taken office.

He promised 5 million new jobs and promised if we allowed him to get the stimulus that he could create tons of high paying jobs. All lies and all failures of Obama.

Obama is a job killing machine and Americans wont forget that come November elections.

This is nothing new. The federal job fairs have been going on for a long time. Every job offered on there has been listed on usajobs.gov for weeks, months, even years. I went to a few last year.

Out of 50,000, maybe 10,000 will get hired. Most of the jobs will require a clearance. Not many can pass that. Then when they realize living around DC is ridiculously expensive, they resign or go broke losing the job in the process.

This article is nothing but a fluff.

Nobody gets laid off in the federal government. You practically have to murder someone. Besides, once they are hired to let them go would mean your unemployment numbers will soar. It's best to not let them get hired in the first place by refusing to pass the appropriations bills. Someone should ask the President exactly how this translates to cutting spending. I wonder how many will be Obamacare workers.

USA jobs are all jobs. This is 50,000 entry level jobs. These are bargaining unit union jobs I'll bet.
