Technically 4. 22 of them were there before.

[Hedgehog]

This says she has 22 people directly or indirectly working for her. 

Are you sure all of them work full time for Michelle Obama?

None of them have several assignments?

Just asking.

Having a staff of 22 persons working full time isn't necessary though, if that is the case.

You don't trust a wet behind the ears kid to make sure The First Lady's itinerary is correct.

WhY?Obama trusts a kid that didnt graduate college yet to fix the auto industry.

Shit - we have Obama in the White House, the ultimate wet behind the ears clown. 

52% of the voters trusted this this clown with the office. 

As for Michelle Obama - those staffers are probably on a constant run to taco bell, KFC, 7-11, and Dunkin.

Mrs Bush had 15, but the point is that Obama was supposed to be  about "change'  

I guess the 'change" is that Mrs. Obama will probably double it before long

It also point out that that's around the number who've worked for previous first ladies.

Just reading the titles you see that a lot of the positions are double-duty. Some are part of the President's staff and some  are part of the social office, which deals with more than just first lady stuff. Some are just unique titles for positions that require more than one person to fill them. If you've ever been involved in anything that required dealing with the press, this number doesn't sound too out there.

What's that got to do with anything? Last I checked, Bill Gates and Steve Jobs didn't graduate college either, but you're not going to tell them how to run a company.

Actually, you probably would.

Because they have a track record of success.  This punk running GM dropped out of school and have never run a lemonade stand.

They didn't have a track record when they started. 

I get it... You guys are haters. Someone has some success in life and you don't like it... so you pick on his age... You pick on what he "hasn't done" according to you guys.

I get it.

Get this on your license plate the next time you stop by the DMV.

Gates was not using, and  was not in charge of tax dollars.  His was a small time operation that grew into a massive success due to its inovation, market success, etc.

The kid that was put in charge of GM does not have that same track record.

When will you say that he was a success then?

What does this "kid" as you like to put it... (Who's really not young at all, but whatever.) Have to do, before you will say, ok... He did a good job.

Ummm,those guys are self made millionaires.This kid,has done nothing,is nothing and is employed by the government to run an industry in which he knows NOTHING about,has no expieriance in.Its like hiring the president of N.O.W to deliver babies because she marches in abortion protests.

No I'm not sure. 

Her staff sounds bloated to me.  I shouldn't be paying for her to wear lipstick.

Doesn't matter to me if previous First Ladies had bloated staffs.  Doesn't justify the current bloated staff.  She needs to pay for her own hairdresser.

I totally agree. A bloated staff is not necessary.

As for the hair dressing issue...

I kind of agree.

But many companies are paying for their top employees gym and health care.

In order to have them look their best.

Eg all the big news outlets like Fox and CNN. Their employees get hair dressing and are styled.

Michelle Obama is the first lady and I suppose it should be in the interest of USA to have her look her best.


Although, she will always look like an ape according to Billy-Moe Mimnaugh.

Well . . . maybe (about the gym, etc. perk comparison).  But she already gets free healthcare, housing, transportation, etc. and she doesn't even have a job.  If we weren't forced to pay for her hair and makeup, she would simply pay for it herself.  It's not like we'd be depriving her of anything. 

This subject is sort of gay.  lol . . .

CEOs wives often get those perks as well... This is another non-issue.
