The worker, Naomi Cohn, told The Post that she was hired and fired a number of times by Census. Each time she was hired back, it seems, Census was able to report the creation of a new job to the Labor Department. [LEFT]

Would this really shock anyone?

Why are Americans surprised?

Think about it...

How is it that the census is so important? The US does not know how many people are here?

How is it that they know how many people have not participated in the census?

Yes. The only reason that we did census this year was to make Obama look better with additional hiring.

No claims in any of those letters that the Census was hiring in order to add to the labor numbers.

This is the original piece:

Census' job total is absurd - NYPOST.com

and even she -- or especially she, since she's an unemployed lawyer ()-- doesnt come out and make that claim.

Only the New York Post article writer, whose job it is to further his employer's agenda among you credulous Volk.

I wonder if Naomi Cohn wrote the intro paragraphs to the article with her byline.

You just keep proving how damn gullible you are. What other reason would there be for hiring and firing the same person multiple times? Man I wish you were my boss, I would be able to get away with murder working under you.
