Just think, Mary 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 from her husband's salary.

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 MS Michelle are the same as members of the national security and defense departments and the bill for these assorted lackeys is paid by YOU, John Q.

There has NEVER been anyone in the White House 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. (I'm wondering why there are no guidelines or restraints for this and other activities concerning our government officials and their kin.)
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 on all ALL Trips,Europe included. Michele usually gets dropped off in another City along with her Mother and 2 Daughters Note: As of 11/15.2015 the Obama Family has spent over 1.3 Billion dollars on personal family family trips. They were personal not political or Government related. Copyright 2009 Canada Free Press:
Yes, I know, The Canadian Free Press had to publish this, perhaps because America no longer has a free press and the USA media is too scared that they might be considered racist or suffer at the wrath of the administration
The bigger the leech the more avaricious, selfish and niggardly.
You need to be carefull there about the words you choose. I mean a leech only does what it does to survive. Really.
And, great question: Where are they now?
I'll bet that they are all at their computers as we speak -waiting for the next texts from Hillary, Huma and Cheryl.
Movin on up, to the east side..........
Laura Bush....she was good but in this day and age I doubt she had just one staff member as written here. Just not doable in this media driven age
“Facebook is rarely an accurate source.
Laura Bush had 18 staffers.”
Thanks. I figured as much. These days the First Lady just can’t get by with one or a few staffers.
I’d be willing to let her keep her whole Army of ‘aides’ ... for her entire prison term...
Yes, they can be locked up -right along with her. Great post.
It takes a lot to make that horrid beast of a woman presentable. Half the staff is probably there just to make sure she doesn’t express her inner rage out loud.
Is the grifter mother, on staff?
I wouldn’t be surprised.
Cicero has the copyright on my tag.
You gotta ask him
fine with me
Thanks for your posts on the actual numbers. It didn’t sound right that most of the rest of the First Ladies in recent decades only had one staffer.
She vying for a spot on *Housewives of the Potomac*?
