White House aide Susan Sher's pay from ex-employer U. of C. medical center in 2009: $511,000

Excerpt:

White House aide Susan Sher earned more than half a million dollars from the University of Chicago Medical Center in 2009, when she left to join the Obama administration only a few weeks into the year, according to a newly released financial disclosure.

Sher was general counsel and vice president for community and external affairs at the medical center before taking a job as Michelle Obama's chief of staff on Jan. 19, 2009.

In that calendar year, the medical center gave Sher $511,000 — $49,000 in unused holiday and vacation pay, $149,000 in salary and bonus pay and $313,000 in a payout of a supplemental executive retirement plan.

Susan Sher, her husband Mr. Cohen, and the son Graham Moore!!!! What the hell kind of family has three different names for three people?? Where’s the connection??

And her father Charles Steiner...So who's Sher? Where did Sher come in? That's not her maiden name, unless her father is really her step-father. Who keeps their fist husband's name after re-marrying? Odd people, those Chicago folks.

[Ann Archy]

Yeah, but where did the Kid’s name, Moore come from?? Steiner, Sher, Cohen and Moore!! Oh my!!

[afraidfortherepublic]

hostess Sally Quinn

LOLOLOLOL! So, that is what it's called now? They used to call someone with Sally Quinn's credentials a courtesan.

Slow Joe is the go-to guy if you want to hide money. Keep in mind Ohaha put Biden in charge of the $2 trillion stimulus pkg and that millions in stimulus are hidden in the states (convenient to wire-transfer offshore to numbered accounts). Read on

"Hi there, Americans. Obama put me in charge of the trillion dollar
stimulus. My son and brother are gonna help me disperse the money. "

Fraudster had links to offshore fund run by Bidens
Reuters on Yahoo | 2/23/09 | BY Ajay Kamalakaran

(Reuters) – A fund of offshore hedge funds run by two members of VP Joe Biden's family was marketed exclusively by offshore firms controlled by Texas financier Allen Stanford, charged by regulators with an $8 billion fraud, the Wall Street Journal said.

The Bidens $50 million fund was jointly branded between the Bidens' Paradigm Global Advisors LLC and the offshore Stanford Financial Group entity headquartered in Antigua, and was known as the Paradigm Stanford Capital Management Core Alternative Fund, the paper said. Stanford-related offshore companies marketed the Biden fund to investors and also invested about $2.7 million of their own money in the fund, the paper said, citing a lawyer for Paradigm.

Paradigm Global Advisors is owned through a holding company by the vice president Biden's son, Hunter, and Joe Biden's brother, James, according to the WSJ. Paradigm's attorney, Marc LoPresti, who represents Hunter Biden and James Biden, as well as Paradigm, told the paper he did not know which Stanford entity invested the roughly $2.7 million.

Marc LoPresti, who represents Hunter Biden and James Biden told the paper the Bidens NEVER met or communicated with Stanford. (/snicker)

WH Meeting with BP executives in the Roosevelt Room, taken and released June 16.

(L-R): BP CEO Tony Hayward, BP Chairman Carl-Henric Svanberg, BP General Counsel Rupert Bondy, BP Managing Director Robert Dudley, Senior Obama Advisor Valerie Jarrett, Labor Secy Hilda Solis, Attorney General Eric Holder, Biden, Obama and Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano. Rahm Emanuel also attended.

The buzz is Joe Biden was tapped as the point man----and reportedly told BP: "you give us $20B or we'll take it from you." Biden is the person to watch like a hawk w/ $20B floating around.

JUST WONDERING How did Ohaha arrive at $20 billion---now called the largest Dem campaign contribution ever----without the benefit of a full investigation of the causes and without a final solution for the problem? How come the $20B agreement between Ohaha and BP was not published?

=====================================================

DID CHI-MOB GANGSTERS SCAM TRILLIONS USING THE MADOFF MO? Ponzi Madoff created a supersecret labyrinth of interrelated international funds, institutions and financial entities of almost unparalleled complexity and breadth......with assets and businesses in multiple places overseas that hid thievery, money launderering and tax evasion.

"Professor" Obama surrounded himself with Wall Street shrewdies---like Chief Shrewdie Rahmn Emanuel. Wall Street knows how to make money disappear faster than a cream puff at a Weight Watcher weigh-in. They have access to $trillions...... tick tock, tick tock.....

Do these politicians do anything that is not illegal?

“Such an incestuous web.”

You can say that again! The only thing they all seem to have in common is living on our dole and in the media’s case...helping them to live on our dole!

Looters and Leeches the lot of them.

CURE honors Tammy Haddad

EXCERPT

http://washingtonscene.thehill.com/in-the-know/36-news/7439-axelrod-founded-charity-honors-tammy-haddad

CURE founder Susan Axelrod (second from left) and board member Connie Milstein (left) hosted the tribute at the Newseum Wednesday night and presented Haddad (second from right) with The 2010 Friend of CURE award.

Also spotted in the crowd at the Newseum: White House advisor David Axelrod (right), Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius, SKDKnickerbocker partner Hilary Rosen, NBC’s Andrea Mitchell, and former Democratic National Committee Chairman Terry McAuliffe.

The main attraction was a video where various members of the media jokingly wondered what Haddad could be honored for. Guesses came from NBC’s David Gregory, ABC’s Jake Tapper, Fox News Channel’s Greta Van Susteren, Jon Meacham, MSNBC’s Joe Scarborough, and MSNBC’s Mika Brzezinski: an Oscar, talking in complete sentences, a Grammy, or two lifetime achievement awards in one year.

Gee, thanks for the pic----I always get my biggest laugh of the day when David
Axelrod goes before a camera, trying his darndest to look "harmless." Just lookit
the slimy grim he's wearing here (gag).

LAUGH BREAK Obama was having a staff meeting and commented that 78% of Americans do not know who the VP is.

Biden raises his hand and says---"could you give us a hint?"

[penelopesire]

LOL...great pic! What a sorry bunch. Axelrod is such a perfect symbol for them with his Hitler looks and his perpetual sneer...LOL.

LOL!

Biden the new Rahm

A smart story from Lee and Bresnahan on how Joe Biden is finally filling the role for which he was, in part, chosen, liaison to the Senate:

(snip)

White House officials say it’s the same role the vice president, who served nearly four decades in the Senate, has played since the start of the administration. But in the absence of Emanuel, who formerly served as Obama’s chief of staff and as a House member, no one in the West Wing matches Biden when it comes to his ties on the Hill, depth of knowledge on how Congress works and having the members’ trust on both sides of the aisle.
