Gallop: Two-thirds of Americans think the federal government is too big for it's britches...

Democrats and the GOPe hardest hit...

Via Gallop:

One reason Americans are dissatisfied with how the government system is working is that they believe it is too big and powerful. Two-thirds of Americans (66%) are unhappy with the size and power of the federal government. These views potentially hamper President Barack Obama’s ability to propose large-scale government solutions in his State of the Union speech next week. However, this problem is not a new one for the president. Roughly two-thirds of Americans have expressed this view consistently since at least 2011, after the measure jumped a full 10 points between 2008 and 2011.

Priceless: Obama claims credit for shredding state and local government payrolls

On May 8, 2012, President Obama claimed he has reduced government employment.

And it's worth noting, by the way -- this is just a little aside -- after there was a recession under Ronald Reagan, government employment went way up.  It went up after the recessions under the first George Bush and the second George Bush.  So each time there was a recession with a Republican President, compensated -- we compensated by making sure that government didn't see a drastic reduction in employment.

The only time government employment has gone down during a recession has been under me.  (Applause.)  So I make that point just so you don't buy into this whole bloated government argument that you hear.  And frankly, if Congress had said yes to helping states put teachers back to work and put the economy before our politics, then tens of thousands more teachers in New York would have a job right now.  That is a fact.  And that would mean not only a lower unemployment rate, but also more customers for business.

The truth is Federal Government employment has increased by over 6% under Obama. 

Employees: The number of federal employees grew by 123,000, or 6.2%, under President Obama, according to the White House's Office of Management and Budget.

Even liberal PolitiFact called Obama's claim false.The reduction in government employment Obama was taking credit for was on the state and local levels.

The federal government has been one of the few areas that's grown during the economic downturn. The private sector remains down 1.1 million jobs from the start of 2009, while state and local governments have shed 635,000 positions.

The irony of Obama taking credit for costing 635,000 state and local government employees their job is priceless.

Did Obama Call Americans "Slugs"

CBS inadvertently taped a President Obama "hot mic" moment. They released an edited version. According to Big Government, the part they edited out was Obama referring to Americans as slugs. The mainstream media continues to carry Obama's water.

People can speculate as to what their motive is, but we suspect that they do not want to jeopardize their White House access leading into campaign season by being the ones to release the audio of His Presidency referring to Americans as “slugs.”

Senator John Kerry: Cutting Government Spending Will Wipe Out Future Internets or Something

But..but...I thought Al Gore invented the Internet.

(Hillicon Valley)- Senate John Kerry (D-Mass.) warned Tuesday that spending cuts could wipe out future government achievements, like the invention of the Internet, which Kerry credited to Washington.

“A lot of people don’t think about that. But the fact is the government invented the Internet,” Kerry said in a 30-minute floor speech.

Leaked: Gtimo Terrorists To be moved To Illinois

Big Government is reporting Gtimo Terrorists are to be moved to Illinois.

The Land of Lincoln may still be licking its wounds–and certain real estate transactions–over Chicago’s losing the Olympics to Rio, but the Obama Administration has delivered up a small consolation prize: the state’s very own federal prison for terrorists. Big Government has received what is claimed to be a leaked DOJ memo that was allegedly sent yesterday from Eric Holder’s Department of Justice to Defense Secretary Robert Gates. Memo below:
