[Westley Annis]

In lieu of this, could it be said Michelle Obama is a tax dollar whore?

Although this has a mixture of true and false statements.It's STILL pretty
pathetic for ANY first lady to have THAT many staff members!!!  Here is the
snopes link about this:

This is pretty sickening...

....raise taxes...tell others how THEY have to pay more and give up
things...but the RULES DO NOT apply TO THEM!!!!  Just like the Congress
exempting themselves from the OBAMACARE healthcare.  It is good for me and
you, but NOT for Congress....they keep their own plan...

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:  One-- paid for personally out
of President's salary.
                          Jackie Kennedy:      One
                          Roseline Carter:       One
                          Barbara Bush:           One
                          Hilary Clinton:          Three
                          Laura Bush:               One
                          Michele Obama:        Twenty-two

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.

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.

Force One to Europe.

 Yes, I know, The Canadian Free Press had to publish this, perhaps because
America no longer has a free press and the USA media is too scared that they
might be considered racist or suffer at the hands of Obama.

Sorry America!
