hwt 0 #27 June 29, 2010 I need to add that There has NEVER BEEN anyone in the White House at anytime 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.

PhreeZone 15 #32 June 29, 2010 Did you even read the list of staffers that I posted for Laura Bush? Max had to correct himself since he also assumed that Mrs. Bush only had one until it was pointed out that she had around 20 and spent the same money that your article talked about. Yes, its too much money and it would be great if they would save 20% of that money every year.Yesterday is history And tomorrow is a mystery Parachutemanuals.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

quade 3 #36 June 29, 2010 QuoteThat's silly; they are nothing alike. Hitler didn't look as good in a skirt. To be honest, Palin only looks good in a skirt compared to other politicians. I'm not saying she's bad looking, not at all, but if you didn't know her and saw her on the street you probably wouldn't think twice about her. She'd be a straight down the middle average soccer mom in Orange County.quade - The World's Most Boring Skydiver Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's a bit striking to see that Laura Bush had the same size when you compare her activity level to that of all of the other First Lady's from Nancy on. (and focusing on this 1.xM$/year expense when we have 700B bills is a case of missing the forest for a trig on the ground.) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The First Lady..... ANY First Lady is a representative of our government whether you like them or not. There are offical duties and functions at the White house for the First Family as OUR representatives, President Obama is OUR head of state. In polite circles heads of state and dignataries attend State Dinners , Parties.... christ you name it. It goes with the turf and the majority of the American people will NEVER be attending any of those functions under ANY president. What we have here is a failure to find a clue....some people will never be able to comprehend said clue even if said clue jumped up and smacked them up side their addled head .... like just another moron passing along just another chain letter ..Different Day Same Shit from the same people Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Why do you keep posting this bullshit when it's been shown, repeatedly, to be false? Exactly. And same goes for the million emails that get spread around and bajillion face book statuses I see that just spread COMPLETE BULLSHIT about administration affairs, Obama, Biden, etc, etc. Independent fact checking site is a mans best friend. Please use it before you blindly put up a facebook status or a forum post just because some people love to grasp on to anything negative that can possibly get their hands on (damned if it's true or not) just because they want to further the kicking and screaming and whining that their guy is not in office. When in doubt or without any actual material to back up the claims of why one does not like the current president, then make stuff up! Brilliant idea! Sorry, I don't mean to go off on the tangent but lately I've seen it happen more and more and it's starting to get a little old. More on topic is the mention of first lady staffers-- see the snopes article posted earlier but in case you need it again: http://www.snopes.com/politics/obama/firstlady.asp Michelle Obama definitely does not have a first ever unprecedented amount of staffers!Apologies for the spelling (and grammar).... I got a B.S, not a B.A. :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
