Highly trained federal work force has no comparison Re: “Obama guts military but gives raises to bureaucrats,” Editorial, Jan. 9

I see The Washington Examiner is back trotting out the myth that federal employees earn twice as much money as those in the private sector. I always enjoy this comparison, which makes the editorial staff of The Examiner look like certified kooks, as well as your solution to freeze federal employee pay until private-sector pay catches up.
