So your solution is to hire more government workers Blackmouth?


No, hiring more government workers would not be my answer.

Were the employees terminated or moved to some other government positions? Perhaps they were moved to the Obama-phone program. wink
Government has plenty of workers to access those records, it is a simple matter of the administration's priorities.

Any attentive and honest person would admit that cutting government has not been high on President Obama's list of priorities, and that keeping it under his control has been very high on that list.
