Think how many jobs were saved by republican presidents without stimulus packages but with simple COLA raises...wow....bazillions I bet.....
Unbelievable.....two-thirds of 14,506 jobs credited to the recovery act under spending by one federal office ...and thats only 1 ofice...if 2/3 of all the lobs "SAVED" in total are from raises what a joke
