This was posted under the above article where I originally found it in Yahoo Groups. I cannot verify this info to be absolutely, although maybe some fellow FReeper here can:

“There has never been anyone in the White House at
any time that 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 travelled aboard Air Force One to Europe.”

correction: “absolutely true”

It's complete BS, as shown on a previous thread.

Laura Bush had pretty much the same amount of staffers, making the same amount of salary.
