This: Just think, Mary Lincoln was taken to task for purchasing China for the White House during the Civil War. And, Mamie Eisenhower had to shell out the salary for her personal secretary from her husbands salary. Total Personal Staff members for other first ladies paid by taxpayers: Mamie Eisenhower: None(One paid for personally out of the Presidents salary.) Jackie Kennedy: One Rosalin Carter: One Barbara Bush: One Hilary Clinton: Three Laura Bush: One Michele Obama: Twenty-two How things have changed! If youre one of the tens of millions of Americans facing certain destitution, earning less than subsistence wages stocking the shelves at Wal-Mart or serving up McDonald cheeseburgers,prepare to scream and then come to realize that the benefit package for these servants of Ms Michelle are the same as members of the national security and defense departments and the bill for these assorted lackeys is paid by you, John Q. Public (that is, if you are an Income Tax or Property Taxpayer). Michele Obamas personal staff: One.. $172,200 - Sher, Susan (Chief Of Staff) Two.. $140,000 - Frye,Jocelyn C. (Deputy Assistant to the President and Director of Policy And Projects For The First Lady) Three.. $113,000 - Rogers, DesireeG. (Special Assistant to the President and White House Social Secretary for Mrs. Obama) Four.. $102,000 - Johnston, Camille Y. (Special Assistant to the President and Director of Communications forthe First Lady) Five.. $100,000 - Winter, Melissa(Special Assistant to the President and Deputy Chief Of Staff to the FirstLady) Six.. $90,000 Medina, David S. (Deputy Chief Of Staff to the First Lady) Seven.. $84,000 - Lilyveld, Catherine M. (Director and Press Secretary to the First Lady) Eight.. $75,000 - Starkey, Frances M. (Director of Scheduling and Advance for the First Lady) Nine.. $70,000 - Sanders,Trooper (Deputy Director of Policy and Project for the First Lady) Ten.. $65,000 - Burnough, Erin (Deputy Director and Deputy Social Secretary) Eleven.. $64,000 - Reinstein, Joseph B.(Deputy Director and Deputy Social Secretary) Twelve.. $62,000 - Goodman, Jennifer R. (Deputy Director of Scheduling and Events Coordinator For The First Lady) Thirteen.. $60,000 Fitz, Alan O.(Deputy Director of Advance and Trip Director for the First Lady) Fourteen.. $57,500 - Lewis, Dana M. (Special Assistant and Personal Aide to the First Lady) Fifteen.. $52,500 - Mustaphi, Semonti M. (Associate Director and Deputy Press Secretary To The First Lady) Sixteen.. $50,000 - Jarvis, Kristen E.(Special Assistant for Scheduling and Traveling Aide To The First Lady) Seventeen.. $45,000 - Lechtenberg, Tyler A. (Associate Director of Correspondence For The First Lady) Eighteen.. $43,000 - Tubman, Samantha a (Deputy Associate Director, Social Office) Nineteen.. $40,000 - Boswell, Joseph J. (Executive Assistant to the Chief Of Staff to the First Lady) Twenty.. $36,000 - Armbruster, Sally M. (Staff Assistant to the Social Secretary) Twenty-One.. $35,000 - Bookey, Natalie (Staff Assistant) Twenty-Two.. $35,000 - Jackson, Deilia A. (Deputy Associate Director of Correspondence for the First Lady) Total $1,591,200 in annual salaries – all for someone we did notvote for and, apparently,have no control over. There has NEVER been anyone in the White House at any time who has created such an army of staffers whose sole duties are the facilitation of the First Ladys social life. One wonders why she needs so much help,at taxpayer expense. Note: This does not include makeup artist Ingrid Grimes-Miles, 49,and First Hairstylist Johnny Wright, 31, both of whom traveled aboard Air Force One to Europe.
