Me wonders why state and federal governments are not laying workers off the same way business firms are having to.Could we not lower the budget request in these hard times by laying off non essential workers.Me thinks all of these elected officals know that by laying government workers off they could not be elected.This includes Obama.Obama also promised NO LOBBIEST in his adminstration,now lobbiest TOM DASCHEL is going to be our HHS secertary.The joke in po dunk Nebraska is,how do you know when Obama is lying?The answer is [WHEN HE MOVES HIS LIPS][/b]
