[StBernard] Irreplaceable!! ??

Funny, but true.

'Some employees are simply irreplaceable.  Take Michelle Obama:  The
University of Chicago Medical center hired her in 2002 to run "programs for
community relations, neighborhood outreach, volunteer recruitment, staff
 diversity and minority contracting."

In 2005 the hospital raised her salary from $120,000 to $317,000 - nearly
twice what her husband made as a Senator.

Oh, did we mention that her husband had just become a US Senator?   He sure
had.   Requested a $1 Million earmark for the UC Medical Center, in fact.
Way to network Michelle!

But now that Mrs. Obama has resigned, the hospital says her position will
remain unfilled.    How can that be, if the work she did was vital enough to
be worth $317,000?

We can think of only one explanation:   Senator Roland Burris's wife wasn't
interested.
