"One industry in America has increased its employment base in the last four years by 176,000 people: the United States government," U.S. Sen. Johnny Isakson, a Marietta Republican, told a group of community leaders at an Oct. 11 luncheon in Cobb County.
Well, he did dramarically increase the dispensing of entitlements to those who do not want to work, so I guess you could say that he created jobs for those people.
Historically speaking. that's pathetic when compared to the 1,000,000+ new jobs which were created in a single month (Sept. 1983) when Reagan was Presidentl; during the corresponding month during the administration of 'President Pass-The-Buck', a paltry 45,000 jobs were created, as the WSJ reported recently.

Given that the Republicans are fighting every effort to create jobs, I would say your news is welcome. Thank you President Obama, for doing what you can to keep Americans working.
Meanwhile, this is how Republicans support their troops....
