"In my
own life
in my
own
small
way, I
have tried
to give
back to
this
country
that
has given
me so
much,"

said.
"See,
that's why
I left a
job at a
big law
firm for
a career
in
public service,

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
Rosalynn
Carter:
One
Barbara
Bush:
One
Hilary
Clinton:
Three
Laura
Bush:
One
Michele
Obama: Twenty-two,
plus two more...
plus....
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.

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.

"For the first
time in my adult
lifetime I'm
proud of this
country"
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 !
