Missus Obamessiah's Entourage of Expensive Minions (Courtesy of Z)



I'm borrowing parts of this article from the blog of Z, a rather clever lady I've just become acquainted with this past week. Great minds think alike, and this goes hand in hand with the blog I did on Obama's Czar Bazaar. (http://mojosteve.blogspot.com/2009/07/come-one-come-all-to-obamas-czar-bazaar.html)
Go visit Z's blog for yourself at http://gollygeeez.blogspot.com/



From The Canadian Free Press...which is giving us Conservatives a lot of information lately that Americans aren't hearing here in our own country, have you noticed that?


“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 Todd 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 Michele 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.
