Well I didn’t get drunk but was working the day they had ceremonies. I never had any intentions of going anyway, had already told them to send it in the mail.

She ought to know what a ‘fat paycheck’ is. She ‘worked’ at a cushy job in hospital administration as the wife of a ‘community organizer’..

Between the two of them holding ‘appointed’ jobs in consequence of their connection to the Democratic political machine, ‘fat paychecks’ were the norm!

“Success isn’t about how your life looks to others, it’s about how it feels to you,” Obama said Sunday, retelling how she and her brother, Oregon men’s basketball coach Craig Robinson, grew up in a small Chicago home pushed by parents who said “be true to ourselves.”

It's good to be the Queen.

Now hush yo' mouff about all their globe trotting and Wagoo beef meals, lowly serf.

How about all the debt they accumulated until Ayres book about bo en”riched” them. I remember her whining about not being able to keep up with only about a 200 thousand dollar joint income. The nerve of some people is never ending.

I despise her and her commie husband. Normal people volunteer or give e to charity if they feel guilty. These people want to impoverish all of us. They re vile and demented.

Sure, average salary and benefits of private sector workers: $60,000.

Average salary and benefits of Government workers; $ 125,000.

Damn them fat private pay checks and benefits.

Does anybody know a Unionized Public school teacher that makes LESS than $65,000. and has benefits out the wazoo including full pensions at 55 years of age for life?

I hate this lying POS and her switch hitting husband!

As I recall, her brother was fired by Oregon for stinking the house out and then rehired after Obama sent Stimulus Money to the school.

"...that meant throwing away their corporate suits and trying something different..."

Like expensive designer clothes and boob belts or travel the world on the taxpayer dime....shame on Michelle Obama! Ms. Obama gets the anti-Capitalism message out loud and clear.

What is really clear is that Michelle is an elitist telling American youth not to try so hard for a rich life like hers, just settle for "Feeling good" will be fine - that is all the success you need, the government will take care of you. A conservative would tell you to go to work and work hard.....you know the rest.

A big corporate payout was sure what she had in mind when she got a $100,000 a year gig at a Chicago Hospital as the wife of an Illinois State Senator - upgraded to $300,000 when he became a U.S. Senator - and the ‘position’ left entirely unfilled when she moved on to become the FLOTUS.

And their payment to her was well worth their money - because whatever she was or was not doing for $300,000 a year (nothing too important as nobody now is currently doing what she supposedly did); they got a HUGE return on investment when 0bama was doling out the money from his “stimulus”.

It takes association with radical and rich men to become a powerful puppet.

Boom! And there you have reality in a nutshell. I tell my kids this all the time. "It's not about how special or pretty or deserving you are. It is about how much value you offer to the market.

"If you want to live well, offer more value. Work for what you want and you get to own what you desire." Or as I tell senior management at work... NMFWRE. Not Magically Fixable - Will Require Effort

——It’s good to be the Queen.-——

Some call it “giving back to the community.”

Good and hard, I’d say.

It's like being a pimped out reverend except the public pays your salary.
