As usual, the Big Media's fact checkers treated Bush's Big Lies and Kerry's mistatements equally, which is unfair of course, but expected.
One of Kerry's Huge Lies (apparently) is that 1.6 million jobs have been lost under Bush. The Pundits are fond of pointing out that these are private sector jobs, and the number is only accurate if you don't count new government jobs (economists tend not to, so Kerry is doing the right thing).
Come again?
Bush ADDED 800000 new goverment jobs? I thought he was a republican? You know, one of those 'small government' types?
If we started laying off goverment workers (not that I'm advocated that, of course), at a rate of 1000 per DAY, it'd be THREE YEARS before we got the federal govt back to where it was in 2000.
Chew on that, wingnuts.
