#1 Heh. Silly Rabbit. Of course they can't show any new jobs created. It was never intended to create jobs. It was intended to keep unionized government workers in the donation feeding system for the party.

#3 Oh, come on, there are LOTS of new jobs in DC! Government is the only 'business' in the country that has been growing, and it has grown a lot. But maybe those jobs - lobbyists, regulators, administrators etc. - are counted in Virginia and Maryland, and not DC.
