I think what he was trying to do, in that pea-brain of his, was to point out the obvious hypocrisy of government employees lecturing people that "the government cannot create jobs", but he doesn't seem to have thought it through properly or expressed it clearly. I doubt that it's clear even in his own mind. Inhabiting his mind must be like stumbling around in a thick fog. In other words, like being a stoner but without the fun of actually being stoned.
Of course. Stoners are usually fine after a few hours, if they give themselves enough time away from the bud. He probably walks around all day like that. Like The Magical Mystery Tour without the purty colors, or a Kevin Smith movie without the random Star Wars intervals.

Uhhh, everything sucks because Jim DeMint started the recession, with, um, cutting... education, welfare. Ack, I think I've caught the stupid too. Jim DeMint started the recession.
The OP is completely disengenuous. All he is saying is people who commit themselves to public service and have spent their entire careers suckling from the government's teet are not in a strong position to condemn government only when it services other people.
It's called a joke, mocking what was an outrageously moronic statement on his part. "Government created your job!" Which totally means it can create so many other jobs and is such a useful tool for doing so, right? In effect, his means of combating that perceived hypocritical stance is comparing holding public office with expansion of government departments and services. It's an asinine comparison.
