The raises could lift some salaries among the 185 people working in the governor's office to $169,500 in certain cases, with the governor's chief of staff, Susan P. Kennedy, eligible for up to $225,000.

I'm sure those numbers are horrifying to rural Alabamans, but that's a drop in the bucket by California standards. The top people in private and public companies across the state make a lot more than that.

This is another case of faux outrage by a media outlet which pays no attention to the tens of billions being wasted in the education budget, so I wouldn't put too much stock in anything they decide to decry for partisan purposes. ;)

Are you kidding? I guess I missed the sarcasm tag.

Isn't this more than what the POTUS gets?
