This woman worked hard throughout her life to put herself in a position to buy anything her heart desires! She did not inherit her money - she earned it. (As did her husband - whose books earn far more than the salary our country pays him!) She pays 'regular' prices for many of her clothes - so that she can splurge on a $6000 purse! Go Michelle!!

Any POTUS's salary in modern times is a drop in the bucket to what they can earn out of office.

What’s next?

1st it was the $540 ugly tennis shoes Michelle worn to a HOMELESS SHELTER, now the $6,000 alligator purse. What’s next? $10,000 pair of snake high heel shoes, $20,000 leather dress to match with that purse? How about a $100,000 fur coat? Oh, and don’t forget the blings. But, but, of course the Bush……… Right Git?

Are you saying she is using tax money?

I understood she uses a common chain store for most of her clothes. If you know she doesn't, tell us.

Now, George Bush and family have a ranch on Texas they hardly use now, a mansion, fully staffed, in Maine they use in summer some, and each has a large house in Houston, TX.
Although most of this was bought with old oil money mostly stolen from Mexico, they still spend an enormous amount of millions per year.

When you get excited about that instead of a purse, I'll help you.
Or do you like royalty?
George found a job--he speaks for 75,000 dollars to people like him.
They are determined to destroy and old party.

Wonder how Michelle reacted to Obama eyeing that 16 year old bum at the G-8? $6000 purse and Prezbo taking in the 'eye-candy' really displays how out of touch these people are with the issues of us little people. Change eh? Yup we're getting it and for me, my employees, my family, and my friend there has been no change that has helped any of us. Why did we piss those hundreds of billions dollars away? Why didn't we spend the stimulus money on tangible assets that would benefit this country for years to come and put people to work from the bottom up? Hell... even FDR understood that concept.

Oil money mostly stolen from Mexico?????? I love the way you Democrats justify Obama's wreckless leadership, wasteful spending, personal greed and ambitions by muttering the words But, but, but Bush.....

There are debatable issues here - our nations financial situation. However, this constant 'poor me/good American male who has done everything right - and is suffering, is wearing a little thin. Why didn't we spend the stimulus money on tangible assets that would benefit this country for years to come and put people to work from the bottom up?

Good question. Lets follow the dollar in the states that have accepted the stimulus money. Why are they holding on to it? It appears that they are spending it on keeping the jobs and services that are being lost because of the poor budgeting for the past YEARS not 200 days. By the way - GM has gotten out of bankruptcy - let's hope that the plans of their leadership are solid and they are able to come back as a global winner!

But, but, Bush? You’re darn right!! Without him and his leadership – we just may not be in this mess!! . . and history won’t forget that!

However, this constant 'poor me/good American male who has done everything right

It comes as no surprise that you would attack the fact that I am male. What surprises me though is that you for once left out the fact that I am a 'White Male'. Unless your term 'American Male' is a code word for 'White Male'. So my concern for the direction that our country is heading in regarding bloated, wasteful spending is wearing a little thin??? Well you can just bite me. YOU have no concern what-so-ever for the producers in this country as you have never produced a damn thing in you life. Instead you've admittedly confess to being some sort of human resource corporate hack. Have you ever created or produced an actual job or product???? I highly doubt it. So bite me you bitter racist hag.

By the way - GM has gotten out of bankruptcy

Gotten out of bankruptcy???? Are you freaking kidding???? How many taxpayer dollars were spent in bailing this failed business out of it's unrealistic business model??? After wasting multiple billions of dollars this sham business was forced into bankruptcy and taken over by the government bilking many, many preferred stock holders of their life savings. Do you realize how many people were bilked out their retirement savings with the gumament stealing billions of bond monies that were supposed to have had preferential guarantees for the risks they took? Out of bankruptcy? You're nuts if you think that problem was solved. But as a Woman and Minority it is understandable that you fail to grasp the reality of the situation since you don't produce and you merely survive off of other people's money and prior successes. Pfffffffft.

My suffering wearing a little thin eh? Let's see... TODAY I wrote off $15,500 worth of bad debts that the government is NOT going to help me with at all. Last Saturday evening (July 4th) some of YOUR race busted out the front door of my business stealing over $5000 worth of merchandise that I will not be compensated for at all. Not to mention the fact that the Clayton County Police won't do squat to pursue the bad guys. And today I helped my dad drag off 7 yearling calves that were killed by lightening two days ago. No one is going to bail him out as he lost 15% of his annual calf crop. You know what DM? Some of us work our a$$e$ off, take much risk while applying ourselves at being productive while others of YOU ridicule the producers and feel sorry for yourselves because you won't get off your fat lazy butts to actually PRODUCE something in this country. Instead you whine about what EVERYONE else doesn't do for you or the entitlement minded majority that sits around expecting the government to solve all your problems and provide your means of subsistence. You people are PATHETIC....

Go ahead and take another cheap shot at this poor me/good American male. At least I produce actual jobs and products and am part of the backbone that actually props this country up. As for slams from some racist man hating bitty like you I fully understand that you will NEVER get it. It's expected from someone that has been a slave to us evil white men all these years.

But, but, Bush? You’re darn right!! Without him and his leadership – we just may not be in this mess!! . . and history won’t forget that!

But, but, Bush..... As if your cheap response somehow justifies Prezbo's irresponsible actions, rule and taking over of the free enterprise system. I have a question for you Ms David's Bigoted Mom: Are you really that ignorant to think that this economic collapse is a result of Bush's leadership? Have you no shame or intellectual honesty to admit that many of President Obama's policies are going to put tremendous and unsupportable strain on our already stressed economy?

Why didn't we spend the stimulus money on tangible assets that would benefit this country for years to come and put people to work from the bottom up?

I am still amazed that you decided to attack me over this valid statement. Just shows just how ignorant you really are.

Those who know you - don't need to be reminded about your great sacrifices for this country. You have no idea who I am, what I've contributed, or how many people I have hired. . .but congratulations! Sorry I'm getting under your skin. . .ignore me!

The only thing that really gets under my skin is to how both the Republicans and Democrats and ruining opportunity and freedom for those willing to work hard and take risks. You don't really get under my skin as much as you would hope you would. I consider the source.

or how many people I have hired. .

Sweetie.... there's a BIG difference between "hiring people" for other people and actually creating jobs. Anyone can hire someone. I do it all the time. Smiling

Errrrr.... cept for this year. Shocked

My family has been 'creating jobs' since the 1800's in this country. But of course, this would be hard for you to comprehend since I have identified myself as a female and a minority. (I've handled payrolls and finances that exceed several million) But now I'm bragging. .sorry. Your arrogance does get under my skin - and I should follow my own advice. . and ignore you and/or consider the source.

Or my work ethic? Gee DM... seems your so arrogant and and proud to be black and to be a woman. So what's wrong with me being proud of being successful and having a productive work ethic?

So my arrogance gets under your skin eh? Well your bigotry and double standards get under my skin. How about we make a deal? You keep your arrogant and bigoted opinions off this blog and I'll do the same. Then neither of us will "wear thin" on the other.

(I've handled payrolls and finances that exceed several million)

Hmmmm you may have processed those transactions but I highly doubt you created the means of funding them. Again... BIG difference.

I choose to continue to blog here - and will do so until the editor decides to silence me.

Hmmmm you may have processed those transactions but I highly doubt you created the means of funding them. Again... BIG difference.

Oh - it would be too much for you to become aware of what I have created in my more than 38 years of work and contributions to this country. Yes - I created much of the funding that I administered. I did not only work for a government agency - but also for a still thriving family enterprise. I by no means want to diminish your contribution - but I resent your effort/assumption that a minority woman cannot be just as productive. For your information, a black woman has just been appointed CEO of Xerox - and affirmative action had nothing to do with her appointment - SHE EARNED IT - and is well qualified!
