Federal, state and local governments are hiring new workers at the fastest pace in six years, helping offset job losses in the private sector.
Governments added 76,800 jobs in the first three months of 2008, the Bureau of Labor Statistics reports.
That's the biggest jump in first-quarter hiring since a boom in 2002 that followed the 9/11 terrorist attacks. By contrast, private companies collectively shed 286,000 workers in the first three months of 2008. That job loss has led many economists to declare the country is in a recession. More here:

This is what I love about *BIG GOVERNMENT* -- "when the economy is bad, they raise taxes, when the economy is good, they raise taxes." (Mark Levin)
The libs have been praying for a recession for years and THIS TIME, they thought they had it -- ohhhhh boy were they gonna blame President Bush. They were absolutely salivating at the prospect. But their asses were DENIED!
Don't you love how they really don't care about a recession -- everybody else cut back but we'll keep growing the government.
