this woman is in the black house because her husband is a counterfeit thug who has bloody hands and bloody relationships. SHE DOES not deserve to be there any more than he does or her mother!!! And I resent one dollar of my taxes going to perpetrate this CRIME.
And I do take a pill each day, it’s called a “Reality” Pill.
Michelle for new “Queen of Mean.” Only little people don’t have staffs.
Remember this is annually. So you’re looking at over $10 million easily. And, this doesn’t included all the not-on-this-list, all the other not includeds like what we may be paying to ferry these people around with her majesty. So, wouldn’t be surprising to learn it’s costing $15-$20 million over 4 years.
The reason I said take a pill is because you were sounding like the DU’ers during President Bush’s eight years.
I made a graph of the numbers asserted in the article and I presented it without comment.
Think of it as a public service to the thread: depicting the asserted numbers in a visual form.
For homework: your task is to regraph the numbers with the fresh data from this thread. That would be more useful than whining about other people's visual aides.
Excellent catch!
In 2007, Laura Bush had the following:
McBride, Anita B. Assistant to the president and chief of staff to the first lady $168,000
Harder, Cherie S. Special asistant to the president for domestic policy and director of project of the first lady $108,000.00
Niemiec, Sally M. Press secretary to the First Lady $90,000.00

It tells you right in the article:
_______
Um, there was no article. It was Red South’s vanity post.
Laura Bush’s staff cost her 1.19 million dollars a year.
She needs this just to look decent
Why say that Laura only had one staffer?
Did YOU assume that we were so stupid that we wouldnt know an obvious lie when we saw it?
Did YOU think that an appeal to emotionalism based upon a lie trumps the truth?
Why lie?
Except the "article" lied about it.
And you realize your little chart is false, right?
It's called the "White House".
i apologize. that was petty of me.
Source?
Source?
You owe me some answers now. It's your turn...
Source?
: "One wonders why she needs so much help, at taxpayer expense, when even Hillary, only had three; Jackie Kennedy one; Laura Bush one..."
Let's play "count the first lady's staff". Hint: It's more than "one".
See, some of us don't find it very difficult to verify our assertions here. I'm curious why you do?
But you didn't do that up front. Why?
Most of them are pretty obvious. (You needed a “source” to back up my claim that the White House is actually called the “White House”?) But, I will gladly back up claims when asked. Why won’t you and why did you get so defensive about it?
