House Republicans Jobs Plan

John Boehner unveils his jobs program.

House Speaker John Boehner said Tuesday that the GOP plans to "get serious" about government spending, and if that means eliminating government jobs, "so be it."

The Ohio Republican said he does not care if federal employees lose their jobs as a result of the GOP plan to reduce government spending by $60 billion compared to last year.

Republicans love to say how much they hate government employees. The irony is Boehner and other elected Republicans are government employees. Boehner has run 10 times for his House seat. Boehner has no problem with his government employment. As for school teachers, fire fighters and police officers, Boehners offers up a big fuck you.
