Obama complains that Michelle doesn’t make money as first lady


michelle-obama-workingAnd now we get more of the whining Barack Obama we’ve come to get annoyed at and despise. At a campaign stop in Colorado on Wednesday, Barack Obama got in touch with his feminine self, which isn’t that hard after he’s been hanging out in Chicago bath houses, in an attempt to sweep some women voters off their feet. Just what was his tactic? He complained that his wife Michelle did not receive a salary for her First Lady duties.

    Only a democrat president would come up with this crap. We can pay her a salary if she will pay for all of her vacations and kids vacations. Pay rent at the Whitehouse, pay for all of her and the kids meals and maid and butler service. We have to make Obama a one termer.

    Okay, first tell me that living in the White House they don’t have hired staff, paid for by tax payers, who don’t attend to every need these people have. Whether it’s eating, laundry, or carting their pampered brats where ever they need to go.

    Second, Michelle and Barry are set for life when it comes to health care. The rest of us however are in trouble with Obama’s Heath Care plan.

    And third, it would have been far more impressive if he had of said something about giving some kind of incentive to both working and stay at home moms versus trying to pad his own pocket more. (I’m not a mom I’m just saying some could really use the help)

    All in all I think Barry has been milking the American public just fine, he doesn’t need any help. If every other first lady can manage without payment so can Michelle.

    It’s time for real CHANGE vote the S.O.B out of office!!

    You errogant S O B!

  • okdlm

    Once again, he wants to tip the family coffers on the taxpayers dime just because she has the misfortune of being his wife! Gimme a break!

  • KathyD

    What a load of crap! He will probably say that his quote was taken out of context or some such nonsense….she should get paid for what??????? Doing whatever is expected from a First Lady which has been done for years and years. Yes, consider all of the trips she and her daughters and her friends have taken on our dime, the trips to Hawaii, Spain, the Vineyard, etc., etc. and ALL of the other perks she gets….and he is complaining that she needs to be compensated for it????? Michelle is on the cover of the September Ladies Home Journal Magazine and as soon as I saw her mug on the front cover, I threw the magazine in the recycle bag…..makes me sick!! Didn’t even take it out of the plastic cover… They are both very ungrateful people..

    “Obama complains that Michelle doesn’t make money as first lady”
    I didn’t know what Mr. Obama; (Or whatever his name is), would come up with, to get the attention of the electorate!
    Michelle; getting paid? You know that would get your attention. Taking those vacations to the “spots” in the world, is tough work! AND; since we know Michelle was photographed with a note pad and pencil; she must be writing something about foreign policy. Wait!!, She must be creating jobs, that’s it!!!
    Yes, ladies and gentlemen, this salary for Michelle, should get your mind off the selection of the next candidate.
    Another diversion, and since his audience is in accord; let’s just give Michelle a salary, and get back to some accounting!
    i.e.,The stimulus, and Solyndra, for a start!
    I wonder if Mr. Obama; (Or whatever his name is), will have time to get some of the Muslim holidays on our daily calander? Along with a salary for Michelle!
    We have a “1″, and a “2″ on the list; what will be # “3″??
    I guess semantics will be the next crisis.

    let’s not be that which we destest – He did not say she should be getting paid – he said she is not being paid even though being the first lady is a tough job. It has to be even for the spoiled rotten Michelle – just because republicans have put the focus on all the spending and lavious perks of being first lady, there are still pressures in that position. I am in no way shape or form a fan of the Obamas – i’m am THRILLED in the announcement made this morning by the Romney campaign!!! but let’s not do what the liberal butt heads do and spin words. people need to say what they mean and mean what they say in this world and the media needs to report what is said and not stretch it to fit their own agenda – that’s politics no matter what letter follows your name in brackets.

      He said, “… First Ladies don’t get paid… Right Now…” end quote. Which I gather would mean IF (Heaven forbid) he should win again… he’ll be pushing for MORE unearned presidential salary — for HER!

    • JohnMca2

      Show me a place in the Constitution where it says the President’s wife/spouse has any duties and is entitled to any compensation. Or is this just like everything else with this SOB/BOW, to Hell with the Constitution.

  • C6Vette

    She already SPENDS MORE then any of the last 40 First Ladies and she is FAR FROM being a Lady!

  • jan

    She ought to send some of the money she spends on poor people!!!!!!!!!!

  • 1rdavidhummel2

    Ther HE GOES again… and Obama gains another SCCOP of STUPID…rah, rah, rah.

    How dare this man even hint at his wife receiving any pay for what she does.Her life of leisure with her pesonal maids and secretaries. Her expensive clothing,Her million dollar vacations,finest foods money can buy. Let her live on what her husband makes and maybe when she turns 66 she can draw half of his social security .Until then she can return to her cushy job at the hospital in Chicago that was created just for her. They never did replace her when she left.
    I think about how hard Americans have to work to put food on their tables heat for their homes and clothing on their families back and I become sick to my stomach thinking about their arrogant attitude towards the working man.

  • Dixie Joe

    You guys/gals have read all messages concerning obama & wife. Listen: just like all of you stood behind Chich-Fil-A, lets all take a stand to rid this disease from the white house in Nov.

  • Mr Smith

    why should she get paid same as men when women around the country that actually work only make half of what men do? isnt the $4mil vacations and his money every year enough? not to mention their no spending limit credit cards? screw these people get them out of thewhite house and stop ruining our country

  • SoundDoc

    B.O. You can just share your wealth with her.

  • Larry Bassett

    I watched the video to make sure… and, yes, he said it. Not surprised, coming from the most arrogant, narcissistic, president in the nation’s history. The sense of entitlement goes beyond rivaling 16th to 18th century royalty throughout Europe and is comparable to the worst among the Roman emperors. Michelle and Barack share a common socialist mindset… All should be on the same level (mediocre at best) while the “ruling class” live like royalty owing to their assumed “greatness.” He’s got to go!!! When he’s gone, she will be, too, and together they will constitute a most unfortunate and near disastrous few pages of the longer term American history.
    I would hope that even a fair number of progressives and liberals will recoil at this absurdity of a belief of presidential family entitlement.
    For goodness sake, she will reap many dollars in book and public speaking income once they are gone. Their die-hard sycophants will eat that up and pay generously for doing so.

  • Nativetx03

    Yep I’ll say give her some pay, come January 20th give her and her aXXhole husband a boot in the butt as they are carried out of the White House for FRAUD.

  • Ltjg

    Here we go…..Another Marie Antoinette….Eat Cake and Starve while the First Lady lives lavishly. The word Guillotine comes to thought.

  • mgaumer

    I won’t waste my breath on them….already too much good air has been wasted on them.

  • Dewey Landrum

    Obama’s wife and kids should be paying just to be staying in Washington. They are the most expensive first lady that has ever been in Washington. She acts like there is no end to the money.Why did the tax payers have to foot the bill for his kid to go on spring break to Mexico? How many secret service men had to go with her.
