Forget Big Government; Get Ready For Massive Government

We just figured out how Barack Obama is going to "create or save" (insert number) jobs with his gradiose dreams of a socialist utopia.

They'll all be government employees.
President Obama's budget is so ambitious, with vast new spending on health care, energy independence, education and services for veterans, that experts say he probably will need to hire tens of thousands of new federal government workers to realize his goals.

The $3.6 trillion plan released last week proposes spending billions to begin initiatives and implement existing programs, and given Obama's insistence that he would scale back the use of private-sector contractors, his priorities could reverse a generational decline in the size of the government workforce.

Exactly how many new workers would be needed remains unclear -- one independent estimate was 100,000, while the conservative Heritage Foundation said it is likely to be closer to a quarter-million.
These of course will be non-partisan jobs and the employees won't be able to campaign on behalf of Democrats and the man they owe their job to.

Bwahahaha!
