Queen Michelle


Snopes verifies the number and cost of assistants but takes exception to the comments that Laura Bush only had one personal assistant.
One might certainly argue that, regardless of who had what in the past, that 26 assistants at a cost of $1,750,000 per year is excessive.

Full article: http://canadafreepress.com/index.php/article/12652

"Michelle and her 'servants'"
Or The Queen is in her parlor....
From an article in The Canadian Free Press:



Never in the history of the White House has a First Lady spent so much on so many personal assistants, all paid from taxpayer dollars.

Hilary had three;
Jackie Kennedy one;
Laura Bush one;
And prior to Mamie Eisenhower,
Social help came from the President's own pocket.
Michelle Obama has 26 -
From makeup artist Ingrid Miles and hairstylist Johnny Wright to her "chief of staff" Susan Sher, whose salary is $172,200..00.
The First Lady does not get paid to serve as 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 every whim and satisfy every request
In the midst of a great Recession.

Has the White House has been mistaken for the Versailles Court of Marie (let 'em eat cake) Antoinette?




$172,200 - Sher, Susan (CHIEF OF STAFF)

$140,000 - Frye, Jocelyn C. (DEPUTY ASSISTANT TO THE PRESIDENT AND DIRECTOR OF POLICY AND PROJECTS FOR THE FIRST LADY)

$113,000 - Rogers, Desiree G. (SPECIAL ASSISTANT TO THE PRESIDENT AND WHITE HOUSE SOCIAL SECRETARY)

$102,000 - Johnston, Camille Y. (SPECIAL ASSISTANT TO THE PRESIDENT AND DIRECTOR OF COMMUNICATIONS FOR THE FIRST LADY)

Winter, Melissa E. (SPECIAL ASSISTANT TO THE PRESIDENT AND DEPUTY CHIEF OF STAFF TO THE FIRST LADY)

$90,000 - Medina, David S. (DEPUTY CHIEF OF STAFF TO THE FIRST LADY)

$84,000 - Lelyveld, Catherine M. (DIRECTOR AND PRESS SECRETARY TO THE FIRST LADY)

$75,000 - Starkey, Frances M.. (DIRECTOR OF SCHEDULING AND ADVANCE FOR THE FIRST LADY)

$70,000 - Sanders, Trooper (DEPUTY DIRECTOR OF POLICY AND PROJECTS FOR THE FIRST LADY)

$65,000 - Burnough, Erinn J. (DEPUTY DIRECTOR AND DEPUTY SOCIAL SECRETARY)

Reinstein, Joseph B. (DEPUTY DIRECTOR AND DEPUTY SOCIAL SECRETARY)

$62,000 - Goodman, Jennifer R. (DEPUTY DIRECTOR OF SCHEDULING AND EVENTS COORDINATOR FOR THE FIRST LADY)

$60,000 - Fitts, Alan O. (DEPUTY DIRECTOR OF ADVANCE AND TRIP DIRECTOR FOR THE FIRST LADY)

$52,500 - Lewis, Dana M. (SPECIAL ASSISTANT AND PERSONAL AIDE TO THE FIRST LADY)

$52,500 - Mustaphi, Semonti M. (ASSOCIATE DIRECTOR AND DEPUTY PRESS SECRETARY TO THE FIRST LADY)

$50,000 - Jarvis, Kristen E. (SPECIAL ASSISTANT FOR SCHEDULING AND TRAVELING AIDE TO THE FIRST LADY)

$45,000 - Lechtenberg, Tyler A. (ASSOCIATE DIRECTOR OF CORRESPONDENCE FOR THE FIRST LADY)

$45,000 - Tubman, Samantha (DEPUTY ASSOCIATE DIRECTOR,SOCIAL OFFICE)

$40,000 - Boswell, Joseph J. (EXECUTIVE ASSISTANT TO THE CHIEF OF STAFF TO THE FIRST LADY)

$36,000 - Armbruster, Sally M (STAFF ASSISTANT TO THE SOCIAL SECRETARY)

Bookey, Natalie (STAFF ASSISTANT)

Jackson, Deilia A. (DEPUTY ASSOCIATE DIRECTOR OF CORRESPONDENCE FOR THE FIRST LADY)

This adds up to a whopping $1,600,700.00 and the amount doesn’t include the elite benefit packages granted to the White House staff and their significant others (include same-sex partners).
Nor does the figure take into account the salaries for the two additional full-time staff members mentioned by Mrs. Obama’s Press Secretary nor the full time hair-dresser and makeup artist assigned to her.
A guesstimate of the total salaries for Mrs. Obama’s attendants is $1,750,00.00 plus the additional benefits.

Who actually APPROVES and allocates this funding???

GUESS WHO????
"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.

Miz Michelle, who requires 26 personal assistants at a cost of $1,750,00.00 plus change- - - The only change American taxpayers can believe in!!!

Barack Obama: you can dress him up, but you can't take him out. Every time he goes abroad, he embarrasses himself and sells out his country.
In Japan today, Obama gave a press conference with Japanese Prime Minister Hatoyama. He was asked this question, for which he was unaccountably unprepared:

Texas Cop TASERs Speeding Grandma Twice

KSAZ: Dash cam video was released earlier this year, the new video is from a camera located on the taser gun. 73-year-old Kathryn Winkfein was pulled over for speeding in May. She was driving 60 miles per hour in a 45 miles per hour zone. She refused to sign her ticket.

State Worker Beaten at SEIU Meeting

This clip shows a bloodied state worker. Police say they have conflicting statements. The SEIU union head admits that the beating victim attended meetings previously and openly criticized SEIU. Rather than noticing that he was a known quantity of criticism and defending his right to do so, the police and the Union head dismissed him as a trouble-maker and a bully. If he was not legally at the meeting that is one thing addressed by trespass laws. But otherwise if the meeting was open and he was there legally this is an easy case of censorship by brute force, something that the leftist union is not averse to doing. What makes this matter more troubling is that Andy Stern the President of the union is the most often visitor to the White House.

Journalists Promote Opinion as Science

This is an "unbiased" 10-minute interview with the mother-in-law of Jason Rodriguez, suspect in November 6, 2009 engineering company shooting in Orlando. She tells Fox News that her former son-in-law "is crazy," a psychiatric diagnosis broadcast on national TV. She refused to appear on camera and to give her name to protect her privacy. But she revealed her former son-in-law's alleged medical records with no concern for his privacy. Moreover she serves as an unnamed source of the information which Fox News broadcasts nationally. Fox is not unique. Most journalists use psychiatric diagnoses made by lovers, friends, relatives, neighbors and police to broadcast any and all allegations of mental illness of any suspect for any crime. This is evidence that psychiatry is all personal opinion. But psychiatrists masquerade their opinions as science promoting drug company products to increase their client base. This would be amusing if psychiatrists and police did not destroy so many lives and cause so much violence with their legally prescribed toxic chemicals. Here's one more gift from the drug industry.

In this AP story the mother-in-law is identified as America Holloway, mother of Neshby.

5-Year-Olds Taught to Worship Obama


Embedded are about six videos (first one was disabled by owner; second one must be watched on YouTube) showing public schools brainwashing young minds as young as kindergarteners to worship the President, the man not the office. It is shameful how abusive of their power the liberal Democrats have become. During the Watergate scandal in 1973-74 Harvard liberal lawyers warned of a government of men not laws. Here they reverse their position and embrace the worship of a man. If only these misguided teachers would instill in their young students worship for the US Constitution, the Bill of Rights or even the rule of law. But instead we get worship of a man. Not any man but a man with a gift of speech with no substance behind it not even any belief in his own words. How terrifying this is and the Democratic moonbats remain silent about this scary abuse of taxpayer funds.
