disgusting

Written by Dr. Paul L. Williams

"In my own life, in my own small way, I have tried to give back to this country that has given me so much," she said. "See, that's why I left a job at a big law firm for a career in public service, "... Michelle Obama

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 from her husband's salary.




Total Personal Staff members for other first ladies paid by taxpayers:

Mamie Eisenhower : 1 paid for personally out of President's salary

Jackie Kennedy: 1

Rosalin Carter: 1

Barbara Bush: 1

Hilary Clinton: 3

Laura Bush: 1

Michele Obama: 22

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 Ms Michelle are the same as members of the national security and defense departments and the bill for these assorted lackeys is paid by YOU, John Q. Public:
Michele Obama's personal staff:
1. $172,200 - Sher, Susan (Chief Of Staff)
2. $140,000 - Frye, Jocelyn C. (Dep Asst to President and Dir of Policy And Projects for First Lady)
3. $113,000 - Rogers, Desiree G. (Spec Asst to the President and WH Social Sec for Mrs. Obama)
4. $102,000 - Johnston, Camille Y. (Spec Asst to President and Dir of Communications for First Lady)
5. $100,000 - Winter, Melissa E. (Spec Asst to President and Dep 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)
11. $64,000 - Reinstein, Joseph B. (Deputy Director and Deputy Social Secretary)
12. $62,000 - Goodman, Jennifer R. (Dep Director of Scheduling & Events Coord For The First Lady)
13. $60,000 - Fitts, Alan O. (Deputy Director of Advance and Trip Director for the First Lady)
14. $57,500 - Lewis, Dana M. (Special Assistant and Personal Aide to the First Lady)
15. $52,500 - Mustaphi, Semonti M. (Assoc Dir and Dep Press Secretary To The First Lady)
16. $50,000 - Jarvis, Kristen E. (Spec Asst 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. (Dep Assoc Dir of Correspondence for the First Lady)


TOTAL = $1,591,200 in annual salaries


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.

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 .

no matter how you view it, paying out over a million dollars per year for a staff of an un-elected coatailer? we as americans should have a house cleaning, and there is no better place to start than at the white one. god willing, Jan. 26, 2010 will be the beginning of the obama's exit from our white house. once he leaves, he can go bow before a muslum king somewhere if he wishes. Judge Carter has some real American Blood running in his veins, and we should support his move to allow this birth place hearing. Now, if we could only control the 100's of millions of democrat dollars that will be spent to try and defend an illegal.. but wait....thats their way....

I got that email a few weeks back and I was completely floored! That's not right!


Posted by croatankid on 11-22-2009 05:36 PM:

i can't say how many assistants or staffers first ladies need. in any event 22 certainly seems like way too many. i wish we could have an accounting of what each one does and how each is justified, not just in these hard times but ever. being flush with money does not make wasting tax payer dollars right. in the bushs' had 22, the obamas' should have fewer because of the unpresidented dept we're piling up.

Whats disqusting is people posting and not knowing the truth or facts.


Posted by john nannemann on 11-22-2009 11:23 PM:

what is disgusting is that so many citizens think their "need" justifies the expropriation(the genteel word for theft) of other citizens personal property. and not just "disgusting", but a dang ineffective way to perpetuate a "free" society. some of us already know, some are learning, some will learn when it's to late.

we had the age of the "robber barons", welcome to the age of the "robber planners".

money issues are not the only problem in dc

While the white house is spending that much money on people to follow the First Lady around the President is shipping all the brass possible over seas to jack up the price of ammo. So you can see both of these people are just as bad.
The First Lady by wasting tax payers’ money and the other by affecting Americans’ rights to bare arms.

insert after the word "bucks" in the above statement-

expropriated from the now and future taxPAYERS.


b.o.'s new "economic stimulus" for new york- an estimated 75 million dollar "show" trial he and his attorney general have pre-determined and "guaranteed" an outcome to for a man who has already admitted his guilt in an act of war against the united states and being treated AS IF he were a CITIZEN of said united states with all of the implied "constitutional rights" of a said u.s. CITIZEN. STIMULATING!!!


Posted by JONAH on 11-23-2009 04:50 AM:
