Braindead says up to 1,500 workers could lose jobs
Seems like the old dog is up to his old tricks once again;

DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) — Gov. Terry Branstad says Iowa can't afford to pay for a contract negotiated by former Gov. Chet Culver and will consider firing up to 1,500 workers who have been hired or are scheduled to start work soon to cover the cost.

Speaking at a news conference Monday morning, Branstad warned that 1,000 worker hired since July and another 500 who are in the process of being hired could lose their jobs.

1. Not to worry,
I'm sure they'll get one of the many high paying private sector jobs that Terry's gonna create.
