Little things we don't know, Michelle Obama gets a nice 51,000 paycheck per year for just being a director of a food service company called Tree House Foods.

Not in her family, not her idea, not passed down, not earned but a gimme check for being a wife to an Ill Senator.

Not to bad for a lady who made 150k per year until her hubby become a Senator and gets a 200k raise the day after he is sworn in and now rakes in approx 350k just from her job, add the 51k for the Tree House job and she is at 500k just for herself. Not bad considering she could only make 150k on her own and 3 years into her hubby being a Senator she is netting a 1.2 mils.

Guess it is who you know. Then tells us all that the Obamas struggled on 150k per year.

And who is donating a ton of money to his groupies, yup, Tree House Foods... well..well...

And to think the Obamas only made 200k just before he became a Senator and now make a whopping 4.5 mils.

The Obamas are out of touch people, she gets 51k per year for just having her name on something, much more then most people get for working all year long.

Not to mention the 40,000 tax refund they got last year for the loopholes, real estate deals and taking tax credits for their two kids when they made 3 mils. How low is that?

Michelle O also makes a ridiculous $300,000 as you stated at the hospital where she works doing some diversity or community outreach nonsense. One way to cut health care costs is to get rid of worthless positions that having nothing to do with actually treating and healing patients. Along with this 51K it appears she makes a lot of money for doing nothing worthwhile. Kind of like a politician.

What makes me feel good about Cindy McCain is that she really pulled herself up by the boostraps to become a self-made woman who struggled for everything she has in life.

She was a little orphan girl, wasn't she? That Mr. McCain took under his wing as his ward?

Ya know whats worse Sunshine? Some people still adore that ugly racist woman. Some if not many people look up to her like an Oprah or a Jesus Christ. Worst yet is they let these people vote.

A lot of people on this board just adore her. Oh, well...I don't get it, but it's not about me.

Someone must be examining this stuff thoroughly (think Sean Hannity) and if there was anything remotely illegal it will come out.

Same goes for Cindy McCain. I want any crooks exposed, I don't care what party.

I wonder if she started getting the paychecks before or after she was proud of her country for the first time?

Cindy McCain may not be perfect but she has spent years of her life giving to several charities and helping with "Operation Smile" all over the world. What charity has Michelle helped?

Cindy McCain was born with a silver spoon in her mouth, another woman's husband in one hand and a bottle of pills in another.

Michelle Obama is not an heiress, an adulteress or a drug addict. She is the real American success story.

People adore her because the vast majority of people are Sheep. They follow the brown spot in front of them. There will always be leaders and there will always be followers in this world. Sheep by nature are followers. They dont have a mind of their own and therefore need to follow some one else. Not just the ugly O'Salami wife but look at all the people who had to immitate Madonna or Michael the molester Jackson so they dressed just like them too. It's disgusting.

People just refuse to be strong and be a leader. They simply must follow instead. It's easier.

A nation of Sheep will beget a government of wolves.

So is Cindy McCains father and so is she. She has given more than either Obama because it was the right thing to do not just because it will make her look good in the pic's!


Also:
So unless she was born in the late 70's early 80's she was not born with a silver spoon in her mouth!

In 1955, Hensley founded the beer distributorship to have his own name,[15] borrowing $10,000 against everything he had to buy a small existing distributorship.[16]

He was given a state liquor license despite his normally disqualifying past felony conviction.[4] At the start it had 15 workers, sold 73,000 cases of beer a year, and had a 6 percent market share.[17]

Hensley soon switched to exclusively distributing Anheuser-Busch beer.[3]

Under the names Hensley & Company Distributors and Hensley & Company Wholesale,[4] the company saw decades of steady growth,[4] benefiting from the population growth of Arizona;[3] by 1980 the business had become quite successful and Jim Hensley was a multi-millionaire.[18]
