> No, Michele Obama does not get paid to serve as the First Lady and she doesn't perform any official duties. But this hasn't deterred her from hiring an unprecedented number of staffers to cater to her every whim and to satisfy her every request in the midst of the Great Recession. Just think Mary Lincoln was taken to task for purchasing china for the White House during the Civil War. And Mamie Eisenhower had to shell out the salary for her personal secretary.

> How things have changed! If you're one of the tens of millions of Americans facing certain destitution, earning less than subsistence wages stocking the shelves at Wal-Mart or serving up McDonald cheeseburgers, prepare to scream and then come to realize that the benefit package for these servants of Miz Michelle are the same as members of the national security and defence departments and the bill for these assorted lackeys is paid by John Q. Public:
>
> 1. $172,2000 - Sher, Susan (Chief Of Staff)
> 2. $140,000 - Frye, Jocelyn C. (Deputy Assistant to the President and Director of Policy And Projects For The First Lady)
> 3. $113,000 - Rogers, Desiree G. (Special Assistant to the President and White House Social Secretary)
> 4. $102,000 - Johnston, Camille Y. (Special Assistant to the President and Director of Communications for the First Lady)
> 5. $100,000 - Winter, Melissa E. (Special Assistant to the President and Deputy Chief Of Staff to the First Lady)
> 6. $90,000 - Medina , David S. (Deputy Chief Of Staff to the First Lady)
> 7. $84,000 - Lelyveld, Catherine M. (Director and Press Secretary to the First Lady)
> 8. $75,000 - Starkey, Frances M. (Director of Scheduling and Advance for the First Lady)
> 9. $70,000 - Sanders, Trooper (Deputy Director of Policy and Projects for the First Lady)
> 10. $65,000 - Burnough, Erinn J.. (Deputy Director and Deputy Social Secretary)

> 14. $57,500 - Lewis, Dana M. (Special Assistant and Personal Aide to the First Lady)
> 15. $52,500 - Mustaphi, Semonti M. (Associate Director and Deputy Press Secretary To The First Lady)
> 16. $50,000 - Jarvis, Kristen E. (Special Assistant for Scheduling and Traveling Aide To The First Lady)
> 17. $45,000 - Lechtenberg, Tyler A. (Associate Director of Correspondence For The First Lady)
> 18. $43,000 - Tubman, Samantha (Deputy Associate Director, Social Office)
> 19. $40,000 - Boswell, Joseph J. (Executive Assistant to the Chief Of Staff to the First Lady)
> 20. $36,000 - Armbruster, Sally M. (Staff Assistant to the Social Secretary)
> 21. $35,000 - Bookey, Natalie (Staff Assistant)
> 22. $35,000 - Jackson, Deilia A. (Deputy Associate Director of Correspondence for the First Lady)

There has NEVER been anyone in the White House at any time who has created such an army of staffers whose sole duties are the facilitation of the First Lady's social life. One wonders why she needs so much help, at taxpayer expense, when even Hillary, only had three; Jackie Kennedy one; Laura Bush one; and prior to Mamie Eisenhower social help came from the President's own pocket.

Note: This does not include makeup artist Ingrid Grimes-Miles, 49, and "First Hairstylist" Johnny Wright, 31, both of whom traveled aboard Air Force One to Europe ..

White House Targets Chamber of Commerce Over Opposition to Reform Plans

Message to America: If you dare oppose this "President", you will be dealt with and silenced. The Obama administration cannot deal with opposition to their plans to dismantle America.

They only know how to rule the Chicago way - with an iron fist.

You cannot help the poor by destroying the rich.
You cannot strengthen the weak by weakening the strong.
You cannot bring about prosperity by discouraging thrift.
You cannot lift the wage earner up by pulling the wage payer down.

AND THE POINT IS?

Stop the nit-picking- this negative stuff just doesn't work! These positions are not personal servants - but paid government workers. Did you check Hillary's list when she was 'working' in the White House? Use your energy to get your reps in Congress to get off their duffs - and stop worrying about their own 'political futures' and work for the people - US!

It is bothering the "President" enough for him to take his eye off the ball as to what is really important. He is now going after news organizations and the Chamber of Commerce - He cannot stand dissent.
He is so insecure, that he can only function if he thinks that everyone loves him.

Poor, poor Barry.

He is also a control freak. Now he's going after control of the FCC. 2010 can't come fast enough for me. And the way I feel about Obama has nothing to do with the color of his skin. He is one scary DUDE.

Not all Republicans are racists, but if you are a racist you're probably a Republican.

I am not a republican or a democrat. I am not sure if I am an indepentdent or not. I try to look at the person and not the party. A wise old man(my Dad) told me to take a cue from another wise man and judge people by the content of their character. I could blame my spelling on this migrane but I won't I guess I was thinking Barack and not Barrack. Who cares! He is still a control freak.I just love this Blog.

Evidence would seem to indicate that Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson are both racists and I thought they were Democrats. What's your point?

Obama is a fool for trying to marginalize Fox or any of their personalities. Beck's ratings are the highest in his time slot and Fox has increased viewership about 15% since Barry started calling attention to their "bias". Keep it up dude, you'll give Beck a national bully pulpit just like the Clinton's did for Don Imus. Real Americans are not stupid or controllable, but you keep trying Barry as you are just throwing gas on the fire. And the fire that is burning is the leadup to the 2010 elections where your congressional zombie followers will be unelected by a not so silent majority.

I should have worked for the government, and then I could have all these perks and not having done a damn bit of useful work my entire career.
