Reid: Private sector employment doing just groovy, so we need to hire govt workers

"Sometimes, one marvels at the shamelessness of the spin and outright lies politicians tell to deflect criticism of their failed policies.  In Harry Reid’s case, one has to marvel also at the unbridled cluelessness of attempting to use easily-checkable claims — such as the notion that the real problem in unemployment is a lack of government workers, which is all the fault of George W. Bush. 

"It's very clear that private-sector jobs have been doing just fine; it's the public-sector jobs where we've lost huge numbers, and that's what this legislation is all about," Reid said on the Senate floor.
