Obama spoke to women supporters at a Denver event today ..."...I wanna make sure that when she is getting paid the same as men, I gotta say that First Ladies right now, they don't, even though that's a tough job!"
This woman has spent MILLIONS of dollars of U.S. income taxes on behalf of her PERSONAL vacation trips including South Africa with her own safari; Spain, Copenhagen, Vail, Las Vegas, Honolulu, and London for the Olpmpics plus sending her 13 year old daughter with 12 classmates and 25 Secret Service agents on their own personal trip to Mexico in violation of travel warnings for government employee's family members
Add to that, all the White House parties held for the Obama's entertainment! Now, Obama thinks she should be paid!
NO WAY! (It's not that women don't deserve fair pay for the same job as men, it's that this women has been an absolute parasite when spending our money, not hers!)

Michelle Obama joins list of First Ladies going abroad on taxpayers' dime

Critics groused about the estimated $148,000 tab for the First Lady's round-trip flight aboard an Air Force VIP jet and the taxpayer-funded security detail that followed her every step

Foreign trips at taxpayer expense by First Ladies are not a new thing, although they're often cast as official visits.
Jacqueline Kennedy's high-profile trip to India and Pakistan opened all kinds of diplomatic doors for the U.S. and Hillary Rodham Clinton's many trips abroad were a warm-up for her role as President Obama's secretary of state.

The White House made sure Laura Bush had at least one "official" event in each city, but she and Jenna spent the bulk of their time at each locale shopping and taking in the sights.
During her husband's second term, Laura Bush also made five goodwill trips to Africa to raise awareness about HIV/AIDS and malaria. But on an African trip in 2007, Laura Bush took Jenna and her other daughter, Barbara, on a safari.

Laura Bush also made an official trip to Burma in support of the pro-Democracy movement and another to the Middle East to promote breast cancer awareness.
The former First Lady's last official foreign trip was to Panama. She brought daughter Barbara with her.

For 15 years, Laura Bush and four female friends have escaped together for a week every summer. They arrived at Mammoth Lakes on July 8, 2001 and a day later came to Tuolumne Meadows Lodge with an entourage of some 25 people, including Secret Service agents, a White House communications team, various aides and several park officials. The group took up about 15 of the 70 cabins at the site.
July 27, 2003 Laura Bush and all her friends arrived at Lake Crescent Lodge in Washington State for a week long vacation in the Olympic National Forest. "I have a group of friends that I grew up with in Midland, Texas, and we hike every summer at a national park," said Mrs. Bush. Yes, she and her friends arrived on Air Force II with lots of Secret Service Agents.
July 23, 2006 Denali National Park & Preserve in Alaska
First Lady Laura Bush arrived in the park by train on July 23rd for a one-week vacation at a private inholder lodge in the Kantishna area. Members of the park staff assisted Secret Service and White House personnel with communications, security and logistics. A small number of rangers from other parks in the region were detailed to Denali to maintain normal operations so that a portion of the parks law enforcement staff could be assigned full-time to augment and assist the Secret Service details. During the week. Mrs. Bush and a small group of friends enjoyed daily hiking excursions throughout the park. On Friday, July 28th, she and her companions traveled to park headquarters to tour the Murie Science and Learning Center, a collaborative venture by Denali, seven other national parks, and several park partners. She later attended a luncheon hosted at the center and greeted park staff and the regional director. [Submitted by Richard Moore, North District Ranger]
This is the second time in the last couple-three months that LaWa has taken advantage of a western national park for a little "getaway with close friends" whose number, names, relationships, and particularly gender is somehow never mentioned.
In June 2008, First Lady Laura Bush visited Mount Desert Island, Maine with a small group of friends for a brief vacation. She did not plan any public appearances before she arrived, but she was out in the public eye during her visit and met with Acadia National Park superintendent Sheridan Steele.
Laura Bush and her daughters, Barbara and Jenna, traveled to Africa in 2007, where they went on safari. Yet her trip was regarded as an "official" visit and included several public events.

What she should have said is, "A whole lot of you are going to have to sacrifice;
so a few of US may prosper........ like beautiful clothes, wonderful Kobe beef
parties for our friends and lavish vacations for me, my family, my friends and
my service people who need to come to wait upon me. After all, I need to look my
best as 1st lady. Yes, that is what she should have said if she were honest.
BTW, does anyone have the exact number of people she employs, paid for
out of the treasury, to be her servants? She has plundered the treasury as much
as any Roman Caesar did........and eventually Rome went bankrupt.......LOL
As far as Michelle Obama's staff size being "unprecedented" in modern times, this appears to be factually inaccurate. According to the Washington Post, the Bush White House also had 16 people on staff whose official titles included the term "first lady" working for Laura Bush, and a recent AP story placed her total number of staffers at between 24 and 26. The same AP report also noted that Hillary Clinton had up to 19 staffers, while Lady Bird Johnson and Jacqueline Kennedy had 30 and 40, respectively. To that end, Snopes.com, another Web site dedicated to checking the facts on issues prominent in the public discourse, described the claims of Michelle Obama's “unprecedented” staff as "grossly inaccurate" and "on par with her predecessor's."
Which is another example of the lies most Conservatives like to spread.
Go Blue!
Analysis: It's true that if you include the White House Social Secretary and her various deputies, First Lady Michelle Obama oversees a paid staff of at least 22 people, according to the 2009 Annual Report to Congress on White House Staff.
That's as compared to Laura Bush's staff of 18 during the final year of the G.W. Bush administration (2008).
Needless to say, it's disingenuous to refer to the size of Michelle Obama's staff as "unprecedented" when virtually all of the existing positions were established during previous administrations
"virtually all of the existing positions were established during previous administrations." ? just wondering.

This adds up to a whopping $1,600,700.00 and the amount doesnt include the elite benefit packages granted to the White House staff and their significant others (include same-sex partners). Nor does the figure take into account the salaries for the two additional full-time staff members mentioned by Mrs. Obamas Press Secretary nor the full time hair-dresser and makeup artist assigned to her. A guesstimate of the total salaries for Mrs. Obamas attendants is $1,750,00.00 plus the additional benefits.

However the claim that other 1st ladies had only 3 or 4 is not true.
but gauging by the number of parties at the W/H, she must have been
replaced. Deseree seemed to like to party with the guests.
This guy is obnoxious but really pretty funny!
the guests.
So to summarize, Michelle Obama has a staff of 25, not 43 as Beck claimed. Nancy Reagan had a staff of about 15 (not 3, as Beck claimed). The size of Michelle Obama's staff is similar to that of her immediate predecessors. And she did not just hire a new personal shopper. In short, Beck's outrage is based on numbers that are wildly off the mark. We rate his claim Pants on Fire
We rate his claim Pants on Fire"
I was off by 3 and you wonder why many of us are rude to you conservatives..
