It’s okay, but it comes across as written in anger. Plus when you specifically enumerate, you implicitly exclude anything not on the list, so you should be more generic, like Federal employee, appointee, Elected, Consultant ... etc ...
Hm, how do you figure that? (What parts?)

This is true; the problem is that federal employee
seems to be rather whimsically applied when it comes to congressmen — remember John Murtha? He got out of being held liable for slander because judges considered him a federal employee
and doing his job
so that they could excuse him from calling some marines murderers on public/national TV.
