An Obama-hater friend of mine sent me an email with the "information" listed below. Could this be true!?
First Lady Michelle Obama's Servant List and Pay Scale
The First Lady Requires More Than Twenty Attendants (Thats 22 Attendants to be exact) 1. $172,200- 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. $100,000- 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. $64,000- 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. $57,500- 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-2Assistant for Scheduling and Traveling Aide to The First Lady) 17. $45,000- Lechtenberg, Tyler A. (Associate Director of Correspondence For The First Lady) 18. $43,000- 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. $35,000- Bookey, Natalie (Staff Assistant) 22. $35,000- Jackson, Deilia A. (Deputy Associate Director of Correspondence for the First Lady) There has NEVER been ANY other 1st Lady 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, 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 traveled aboard Air Force One to Europe.

I have no idea how many or how much servants are but... Here's the site that info comes from (or at least one of the sites). You don't have to read much to see it is a very conservative "anti" Obama site. Oh, the person listed, who is claiming this story is referred to as: Retired USAF MSgt. Probably the same group of people still looking for a birth certificate. TIS http://patriotupdate.com/9757/first-lady-now-requires-26-servants/comment-page-1#comment-193799

An Obama-hater friend of mine sent me an email with the "information" listed below. You read those??? Only for the comedic value. It's amazing how much crap is out there, AND how much of it people believe to be true.

A little off topic BUT like those stupid "chain e-mails" where you must pass it on to 10 friends or something. Something "good" will happen if you do. LOL TIS

Washington, D.C.– Rep. Raúl M. Grijalva, co-chair of the Congressional Progressive Caucus, today released the following statement on the emerging debt deal:
“This deal trades peoples’ livelihoods for the votes of a few unappeasable right-wing radicals, and I will not support it. Progressives have been organizing for months to oppose any scheme that cuts Medicare, Medicaid or Social Security, and it now seems clear that even these bedrock pillars of the American success story are on the chopping block. Even if this deal were not as bad as it is, this would be enough for me to fight against its passage.
This deal does not even attempt to strike a balance between more cuts for the working people of America and a fairer contribution from millionaires and corporations. The very wealthy will continue to receive taxpayer handouts, and corporations will keep their expensive federal giveaways. Meanwhile, millions of families unfairly lose more in this deal than they have already lost. I will not be a part of it.
Republicans have succeeded in imposing their vision of a country without real economic hope. Their message has no public appeal, and Democrats have had every opportunity to stand firm in the face of their irrational demands. Progressives have been rallying support for the successful government programs that have meant health and economic security to generations of our people. Today we, and everyone we have worked to speak for and fight for, were thrown under the bus. We have made our bottom line clear for months: a final deal must strike a balance between cuts and revenue, and must not put all the burden on the working people of this country. This deal fails those tests and many more.
The Democratic Party, no less than the Republican Party, is at a very serious crossroads at this moment. For decades Democrats have stood for a capable, meaningful government – a government that works for the people, not just the powerful, and that represents everyone fairly and equally. This deal weakens the Democratic Party as badly as it weakens the country. We have given much and received nothing in return. The lesson today is that Republicans can hold their breath long enough to get what they want. While I believe the country will not reward them for this in the long run, the damage has already been done.
A clean debt ceiling vote was the obvious way out of this, and many House Democrats have been saying so. Had that vote failed, the president should have exercised his Fourteenth Amendment responsibilities and ended this manufactured crisis.
This deal is a cure as bad as the disease. I reject it, and the American people reject it. The only thing left to do now is repair the damage as soon as possible.”
"When the snows fall and the white winds blow, the lone wolf dies but the pack survives." Winter is Coming
Now this is the Law of the Jungle—as old and as true as the sky; And the wolf that shall keep it may prosper, but the wolf that shall break it must die. As the creeper that girdles the tree-trunk, the Law runneth forward and back; For the strength of the Pack is the Wolf, and the strength of the Wolf is the Pack.

Here's a copy of the deal as it was released yesterday: http://www.whitehouse.gov/fact-sheet-victory-bipartisan-compromise-economy-american-peopleBTW, it just passed the house but the big surprise was Congresswoman Gabby Gifford (AZ), the senator that got shot showed up to vote and received a huge applause. God bless her. I feel really badly for her. Yet, she looks like she's a survivor. TIS

This is self explanatory Obama Turns 50 Despite Republican Opposition August 4, 2011 WASHINGTON—After months of heated negotiations and failed attempts to achieve any kind of consensus, President Obama turned 50 years old Thursday, drawing strong criticism from Republicans in Congress. "With the host of problems this country is currently facing, the fact that our president is devoting time to the human process of aging is an affront to Americans everywhere," said Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, who advocated a provision to keep Obama 49 at least through the fall of 2013. "To move forward unilaterally and simply begin the next year of his life without bipartisan support—is that any way to lead a country?" According to White House officials, Obama attempted to work with Republicans right up until the Aug. 4 deadline, but was ultimately left with no choice except to turn a year older.

TIS, what does it say when the President is younger than yourself? Granted, only by a little more than a month for me, but what more certain sign that we're getting older?? So, what you're saying then is I'm old???? LMAO Yes, actually the first President that is younger than me. (Although I can't remember Bush's age but close). And, who would have thought the day would come when you'd think a President looks "youthful" and 50 isn't all that old. TIS

I remember during the 08 campaign, Bill Maher comparing Obama & McCain as far as age difference. He noted (and showed a clip) of McCain entering the stage walking to the podium and then Obama. McCain walked fairly slowly to his place, and Obama ran quickly up the couple steps as he neared the podium. Just trivial observation of what we tend to take for granted when we are youthful. TIS

Affirmative Action; color, not character, clueless what makes America tick. Individual freedom, may the best man (woman) win isn't his game - it's everybody grab a shovel! Typical broken family results; (subconsciously) blaming looney tunes mom for chasing lefty jerkoff (fuck'em & leave'em) dad; depriving him life's anchor, identity's source. Without father's guidance developement stunted making it difficult to recognize, understand his personal limits, love who he is. America's greatness stems from individual achievement, going it alone, risk taking, but his grand schemes - higher taxes, DeathCare, more government - come from an unaccomplished, naive, angry, tortured man unable to stand on his own two feet. Bottom barrel unamericans - anyone else here worship (white hater) Rev Wright - reside in our White House, spineless congress; country in full throttle collapse; socialist obamacare wrecking economy, goodbye middleclass lifestyle! Lost in himself; not a man's man, a Hawaiian tourist roaming Hells Angels' turf.
Do your best, we only go around once
