An often heard conservative complaint is that Democrats add to what they (the conservatives that is) perceive as a bloated, ineffectual government by expanding public sector hiring. Sure looks like no such thing happened during the Obama presidency. Perhaps I'll also offer up a chart showing the decreasing budget deficits. How can perception and reality be so wrong? We all know.
