"When Michelle Obama was promoted from executive director to vice president in 2005 she received an annual pay increase of $195,050, from $121,910 to $316,960...just three months after her husband was sworn in as the junior senator from Illinois. This, of course, is a young black woman who not only enjoys a million dollar annual income, who lives in a multi-million dollar home in Chicago, who attended the most expensive Ivy League schools, all on someone else’s dollar, and who now concludes, according to a March 2008 interview in The New Yorker magazine that “...in America, in 2008, we’re a country that is just downright mean, we are guided by fear...” "

How does a $300K salary equate to a "multi-million" dollar salary and home??? Where is the other money? Barack does not make that much.

Barack’s book sales netted millions, and the story said “income”, not salary.

These two are NOT “average” Americans. They are part of that special elite, at least in their own minds. You know the ones - they are always downtrodden, even as they kick their country straight in the groin...
