From the Canada Free Press :
First Lady Requires More Than Twenty Attendants
July 7, 2009
Written by Dr. Paul L. Williams
"In my own life, in my own small way, I have tried to
give back to this country that has given me so much,"
she said. "See, that's why I left a job at a big
law firm for a career in public service, "... Michelle Obama
No, Michele Obama does not get paid to serve as the First
Lady and she doesn't perform any official duties. But
this hasn't deterred her from hiring an unprecedented
number of staffers to cater to her every whim and to satisfy
her every request in the midst of the Great Recession.
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.
Total Personal Staff members for other first ladies paid by taxpayers:
Mamie Eisenhower : 1 paid for personally out of President's salary
Jackie Kennedy: 1
Roseline Carter: 1
Barbara Bush: 1
Hilary Clinton: 3
Laura Bush: 1
Michele Obama: 22
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. Public:
Michele Obama's personal staff:
1. $172,200 - Sher, Susan (Chief Of Staff)
2. $140,000 - Frye, Jocelyn C. (Deputy Assistant to the
President and Director of Policy And Projects For The First Lady)
3. $113,000 - Rogers, Desiree G. (Special Assistant to the
President and White House Social Secretary for Mrs. Obama)
4. $102,000 - Johnston, Camille Y. (Special Assistant to
the President and Director of Communications for the First Lady)
5. $100,000 - Winter, Melissa E. (Special Assistant to the
President and Deputy Chief Of Staff to the First Lady)
6. $90,000 - Medina , David S. (Deputy Chief Of Staff to the First Lady)
7. $84,000 - Lel yveld, Catherine M. (Director and Press Secretary to the First Lady)
8. $75,000 - Starkey, Frances M. (Director of Scheduling and Advance for the First Lady)
9. $70,000 - Sanders, Trooper (Deputy Director of Policy and Projects for the First Lady)
10. $65,000 - Burnough, Erinn J. (Deputy Director and Deputy Social Secretary)
11. $64,000 - Reinstein, Joseph B. (Deputy Director and Deputy Social Secretary)
12. $62,000 - Goodman, Jennifer R. (Deputy Director of Scheduling and Events
Coordinator For The First Lady)
13. $60,000 - Fitts, Alan O. (Deputy Director of Advance and Trip Director for the First Lady)
14. $57,500 - Lewis, Dana M. (Special Assistant and Personal Aide to the First Lady)
15. $52,500 - Mustaphi, Semonti M. (Associate Director and Deputy Press Secretary To The First Lady)
16. $50,000 - Jarvis, Kristen E. (Special Assistant for Scheduling and Traveling Aide To The First Lady)
17. $45,000 - Lechtenberg, Tyler A. (Associate Director of Correspondence For The First Lady)
18. $43,000 - Tubman, Samanth a (Deputy Associate Director, Social Office)
19. $40,000 - Boswell, Joseph J. (Executive Assistant to the Chief Of Staff to the First Lady)
20. $36,000 - Armbruster, Sally M. (Staff Assistant to the Social Secretary)
21. $35,000 - Bookey, Natalie (Staff Assistant)
22. $35,000 - Jackson, Deilia A. (Deputy Associate Director of Correspondence for the First Lady)
(total = $1,591,200 in annual salaries)
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.

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 hands
of Obama. Sorry America !

The George Washington University and VolunteerMatch Partner to Help Students Reach First Lady’s Service Challenge
Following a unique challenge issued by the First Lady, The George Washington University and VolunteerMatch have partnered to launch a new Web site that will enable the GW student body to inspire and track the 100,000 hours of service that Mrs. Obama challenged the University to complete by May 1, 2010.
When the new site launches in early November, it will connect GW students with volunteer opportunities from more than 2,600 participating organizations in the Washington, D.C. metro region. VolunteerMatch and the University’s Office of Community Service will also highlight additional volunteer roles at GW’s network of student service agencies.
Best known for its award-winning public Web service, www.volunteermatch.org, VolunteerMatch provides businesses, campuses and organizations with Web-based solutions to track and manage volunteer engagement at local and national levels. In a typical deployment, a campus, company, or cause campaign uses the service to connect students, employees, or consumers to the VolunteerMatch network of nonprofit organizations. GW’s Office of Community Service will use its VolunteerMatch deployment to report the hours of its student volunteers.
"We want to make participation in this challenge as simple as possible," said Robert Chernak, the University’s senior vice president for student and academic support services. "Our partnership with VolunteerMatch will not only help the GW community find volunteering opportunities they can be passionate about, it will help us ensure that service hours are tracked accurately for this challenge."
Mrs. Obama issued the challenge on September 11 during the first ever National Day of Service and Remembrance, an event which marked the culmination of President Barack Obama's "United We Serve" summer service initiative.
"The call to service is being heard loud and clear at The George Washington University, and the spirit and energy of this student body is contagious," said Greg Baldwin, president of VolunteerMatch. "We look forward to working with the GW community to make this effort a success."

Michelle == Donna !
Per me la migliore First Lady. Se ne infischia, quando può ovviamente, dell'etichetta rigorosa. E' una Donna raffinata, elegante e semplice pur essendo la moglie del presidente USA.
Aiuta il suo popolo, la sua gente in tutti i modi... qui svolge volontariato per la United We Serve in occasione dell'ottavo anniversario dell'attentato alle Torri Gemelle di New York.
