The One Million, Seven Hundred Thousand Dollar, First Lady


How's that hope and chance working out? Part III
Michele Obama has 22 attendants costing the US taxpayer over $1,700,000 a year.


Michele's version of "change"


"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.

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 Miz Michelle are the same as members of the national security and defense departments and the bill for these assorted lackeys is paid by John Q. Public:

1. $172,2000 - Sher, Susan (Chief Of Staff)
2. $140,000 - Frye, Jocelyn C. (Deputy Assistant to the President and Director of Policy And Projects For The First Lady)
3. $113,000 - Rogers, Desiree G. (Special Assistant to the President and White House Social Secretary)
4. $102,000 - Johnston, Camille Y. (Special Assistant to the President and Director of Communications for the First Lady)
5. Winter, Melissa E. (Special Assistant to the President and Deputy 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. Reinstein, Joseph B. (Deputy Director and Deputy Social Secretary)
12. $62,000 - Goodman, Jennifer R. (Deputy Director of Scheduling and Events Coordinator For The First Lady)
13. $60,000 - Fitts, Alan O. (Deputy Director of Advance and Trip Director for the First Lady)
14. Lewis, Dana M. (Special Assistant and Personal Aide to the First Lady)
15. $52,500 - Mustaphi, Semonti M. (Associate Director and Deputy Press Secretary To The First Lady)
16. $50,000 - Jarvis, Kristen E. (Special Assistant for Scheduling and Traveling Aide To The First Lady)
17. $45,000 - Lechtenberg, Tyler A. (Associate Director of Correspondence For The First Lady)
18. 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. Bookey, Natalie (Staff Assistant)
22. Jackson, Deilia A. (Deputy Associate Director of Correspondence for the First Lady)

There has never been anyone in the White House at any time that 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, when even Hillary, only had three; Jackie Kennedy one; Laura Bush one; and prior to Mamie Eisenhower social help came from the President's own pocket.

Note: This does not include makeup artist Ingrid Grimes-Miles, 49, and "First Hairstylist" Johnny Wright, 31, both of whom travelled aboard Air Force One to Europe .

Healthcare Idea From The Greatest Generation

Solution to Senior Health Care

While discussing the upcoming Universal Health Care Program with my friend the other day, I think we have found the solution.  

I am sure you have heard the ideas that if you're a senior you need to suck it up and give up the idea that you need any health care. A new hip? Unheard of. We simply can't afford to take care of you anymore.  You don't need any medications for your high blood pressure, diabetes, heart problems, etc. 

Let's take care of the young people. After all, they will be ruling the world very soon.

So here is the solution: When you turn 70, you get a gun and 6 bullets.

You are allowed to shoot 2 senators and 4 congressmen. 

Of course, you will be sent to prison where you will get 3 meals a day, cable TV, a library, a gym, a roof over your head and all the health care you need! 

New teeth, great! 

Need glasses, no problem.

New hip, knee, kidney, lung, heart?

Well bring it on. And who will be paying for all of this. The same government that just told you that you are too old for health care. And, since you are a prisoner, you don't have to pay any income tax.

And if we all do our part we can end up in the same prison and have one hell of a social life.

YOU SCARE ME

AN OPEN LETTER TO PRESIDENT OBAMA

Dear President Obama:

You are the thirteenth President under whom I have lived and unlike any of the others, you truly scare me.

You scare me because after months of exposure, I know nothing about you.

You scare me because I do not know how you paid for your expensive Ivy League education and your upscale lifestyle and housing with no visible signs of support.

You scare me because you did not spend the formative years of youth growing up in America and culturally you are not an American.

You scare me because you have never run a company or met a payroll.

You scare me because you have never had military experience, thus don't understand it at its core..

You scare me because you lack humility and 'class', always blaming others.

You scare me because for over half your life you have aligned yourself with radical extremists who hate America and you refuse to publicly denounce these radicals who wish to see America fail.

You scare me because you are a cheerleader for the 'blame America' crowd and deliver this message abroad.

You scare me because you want to change America to a European style country where the government sector dominates instead of the private sector.

You scare me because you want to replace our health care system with a government controlled one.

You scare me because you prefer 'wind mills' to responsibly capitalizing on our own vast oil, coal and shale reserves.

You scare me because you want to kill the American capitalist goose that lays the golden egg which provides the highest standard of living in the world.

You scare me because you have begun to use 'extortion' tactics against certain banks and corporations.

You scare me because your own political party shrinks from challenging you on your wild and irresponsible spending proposals.

You scare me because you will not openly listen to or even consider opposing points of view from intelligent people.

You scare me because you falsely believe that you are both omnipotent and omniscient.

You scare me because the media gives you a free pass on everything you do.

You scare me because you demonize and want to silence the Limbaughs, Hannitys, O'Relllys and Becks who offer opposing, conservative points of view.

You scare me because you prefer controlling over governing.

Finally, you scare me because if you serve a second term I will probably not feel safe in writing a similar letter in 8 years.

Lou Pritchett 
 
This letter was sent to the NY Times but they never acknowledged it.  Big surprise.  Since it hit the internet, however, it has had over 500,000 hits.   Keep it going.  All that is necessary for evil to succeed is that good men do nothing.  It's happening right now.
 

Healthcare Rationing

Everywhere there is Government Managed Health Care, there is rationing.
Not an opinion, just what happens when you steal from 20% of the citizens and distribute for votes, not the good of the citizens.

End of Life Counseling


Lib speak for "We'll take care of that grandma problem for you."

Aren't these the same people who worry about Snail Darter fish, and Spotted Owls (neither endangered).
The same bunch who want to give human rights to Apes, don't have a problem with 'putting down' the unborn or aged in our society.

Moloch is alive and well...

Its Progressive


Remember, Fascism is the Italian word for Unions...

No Teacher Left Standing

Ever wonder why most teachers bail in the first five years?
They haven't been trained properly.




Hey, didn't O'Riley used to teach high school?

As if on cue, the Santa Brigham winds blow through the valley. Soon to follow are the dreaded Zucchini wild fires that have plagued Utah settlers for nigh unto a hundret n fiffy years.


MORE PEOPLE VIEW OBAMA AS A FAILURE THAN DID BUSH

MORE PEOPLE VIEW OBAMA AS A FAILURE THAN DID BUSH.
Where's Oberman when ya need him.

I'd love to see that guy frothing at the mouth, spitting out every word, as he decries the Obama health plan as a massive government takeover. Wasn't Keith, graduate of one of the top agriculture universities in Iowa, always harping about government conspiracy this and conspiracy that?

When does Barry O`Bama get to be the "Worst Person in the World"....

All I hear is chickens a `clucking

Spend AND Tax

















Is this why we elect 'professional politicians'?
People who've NEVER HELD AN HONEST JOB IN THEIR LIVES?

What was that he said? (7:20min)

Oh, and thanks for eroding public support for the Vietnam war. We won that war. That is were about to when you came out at the eleventh hour declaring it a failure.
To this day those communist leaders credit you for winning their war.

I grew up loving uncle Waltie, thinking his personal views did not get in the way. Suppose everyone is human, but that's a pretty large body count for just one slipped opinion...

From the Patriot Post

Pretty damming of the entire secularist religion -- yes, religion.

I. Thou shalt have no God in America, except for me. For we are no longer a Christian nation and, after all, I am the chosen One. (And like God, I do not have a birth certificate.) SOURCE

II. Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, unless it is my face carved on Mt. Rushmore.SOURCE

III. Thou shalt not utter my middle name in vain (or in public). Only I can say Barack Hussein Obama. SOURCE

IV. Remember tax day, April 15th, to keep it holy. SOURCE

V. Honour thy father and thy mother until they are too old and sick to care for. They will cost our public-funded health-care system too much money. SOURCE

VI. Thou shalt not kill, unless you have an unwanted, unborn baby. For it would be an abomination to punish your daughter with a baby. SOURCE

VII. Thou shalt not commit adultery if you are conservative or a Republican. Liberals and Democrats are hereby forgiven for all of their infidelity and immorality, but the careers of conservatives will be forever destroyed. SOURCE

VIII. Thou shalt not steal, until you've been elected to public office. Only then is it acceptable to take money from hard-working, successful citizens and give it to those who do not work, illegal immigrants, or those who do not have the motivation to better their own lives. SOURCE

IX. Thou shalt not discriminate against thy neighbor unless they are conservative, Caucasian, or Christian. SOURCE

X. Thou shalt not covet because it is simply unnecessary. I will place such a heavy tax burden on those that have achieved the American Dream that, by the end of my term as President, nobody will have any wealth or material goods left for you to covet. SOURCE

Large Pink Bureaucrat Cornered in Lie


Milkulski, that large pink bureaucrat, wants to spend you tax dollars to fund abortions.
She is really squirming up there.

Of course abortion is the only way for Democrats to keep the black population down.
Poverty and genocide.
Neat trick Dems.

Now for something completely different

Was thinking about what might be going on behind closed doors in congress at any given time.

Atheism is a parasite on Religion

Atheism cannot survive on it's own. It needs something to ridicule and mock for it to give itself credibility. If Atheism ever overthrows religion, then some other belief system will rush in to take its place. Tarot cards, tea leaves, or sheep guts, the void left by a positive, legitimate, and uplifting system of law and beliefs will be filled by the destructive, amoral, and degrading.

The further we stray from the ability to think clearly, the more easily venal politicians can lead the people into captivity and away from God.

Education, real education, cannot exclude the Scriptures or mention of He who gave them.

Who has been thinking lately about how far from rational thinking our politics have gone. Socialization of everything and a dismissal of God.

Our new gods are junk science and litigiousness.

...[T]he prevalence of indiscipline and disease in a community leads... to the opening of law courts and surgeries in large numbers, and law and medicine begin to give themselves airs, especially when they are taken with great seriousness even by free men...

...[W]hen not only the lower classes as manual workers, but also those who have some pretensions to a liberal education, need skilled doctors and lawyers, that is a pretty conclusive proof that the education in a state is disgracefully bad.
-- The Republic, Book III, By Plato; Desmond Lee, Henry Desmond Pritchard Lee. p.102

This is a great example of just how easily poorly educated people embrace their own enslavement.

ACORN Sure knows alot about nothing

Democrats: Party of the Little Guy

And other lies.

This is just another reason why Democrats who claim to be for the little guy are so used to lying that they ignore the monsters they support.

Neal A. Maxwell - "The great physician, Dr. Henry G. Armitage, Jr., states, 'Not without comment shall it come to pass that a state (so fretful for the preservation of the praying mantis but holding an unborn baby to be of no account) can send a spark of immortality swinging out into limbo and conspire with citizen and physician to turn a fragile, living object of simple innocence and complex wonder into a pathetic pulp and consign it by rude and peremptory passage to the furnace or sewer — unknown, unwanted [and] undefended.' He further questions how a woman as 'the fertile adornment of our race can be deluded into the notion that she is a mere poetress of unwanted luggage or be by blandishment seduced into believing that she has dominion over life not her own.' He says, 'An abortion is never commonplace, for the world holds no heartbreak like the death of innocence.'"

Nancy Pelosi's 757: You Foot the over $6mil. Annual Bill

    The Jet is a USAF Boeing 757.

          



*And they STILL want to talk about Sarah's clothing??

Republicans! Are you out there?


*MADAME PELOSI*

Madame Pelosi wasn't happy with the small private jet that comes with the Speaker's job...no, Madame Pelosi was aggravated that this little jet had to stop to refuel, so she ordered a Big Fat 200 seat jet that could get her back to California  without stopping!

Many, many legislators walked by and grinned with glee as Joe informed everyone what Nancy's Big Fat Jet costs us, the hard working American Taxpayers, for the thousands of gallons of fuel every week.

Since she only works 3 days a week, this gas guzzling jet gets fueled and she flies home to California , cost to the taxpayers of about $60,000  one way!

As Joe put it, 'Unfortunately we have to pay to bring her back on Monday Night.' Cost to us is another $60,000.  Folks, that is

$480,000 per month and that is an annual cost to the taxpayers of $5,760,000.  No wonder she complains about the cost of this war...it might cramp her style and she is styling, on my back and yours.

I think of the military families in this country doing without and this woman, who heads up the most do-nothing Congress in the history of this country, keeps fueling that jet while doing nothing.


Madame Pelosi wants you and me to conserve our carbon footprint. She wants us to buy smaller cars and Obama wants us to get a bicycle pump and pump up our tires.

These people are nuts.

If you think this is outrageous, forward it to all those on your email list!

Keep in mind the figures above do
NOT  include cost of plane or crew, just fuel!

One wonders what her total package cost us? And she wants to tax OUR Ira's & 401K's.....

YOU WILL NEVER SEE THIS IN ANY NEWSPAPERS IN THE COUNTRY! THEY HAVE NO GUTS - THEY WOULD RATHER SEE PEOPLE STARVING THAN REPORT ON THE MONSTER THAT IS NANCY PELOSI!
