Google (Images) “elfin facies williams syndrome” - she has to me that sort of “elfin facies” - very strange looking person. Evil as the day is long as well.

Is she paid by the taxpayers?

Is her salary authorized by statute?

Well, I guess we just figure out no the depth of GOPe enabling. I mean, there is a serious lack of representation for the US citizens and the foundation of our country where this is allowed to go on.

“In any given day, our administration has to throw about 2 thousand employees under the bus, and things happen,” Jarrett tells the Boston Globe. “We put in process procedures to make sure if there has been any wrongdoing, we will get a bigger bus, and we will drive on.”

Well, yeah. Here’s her title:
Assistant to the President for Public Engagement and Intergovernmental Affairs in the Obama administration.

Not only is it so long that it could be comical, but they made it up.

But, what is: Intergovernmental Affairs?

Anyway, she’s slithered out from under her rocklong enough to take a few quesions. Must be getting hot under there.

All authorized and appropriated by the GOP?

The House of Representatives is responsible for all money spent by the US government.
