The Michelle Obama Pay Raise - It's Your Money!
I'm surprised the mainstream media is COMPLETELY ignoring this story.
Just after Barack was elected to the United States Senate, Michelle Obama received a large pay increase—from $121,910 in 2004 to $316,962 in 2005 at the University of Chicago Hospitals.
Then in 2006 Barack Obama requested $1 million for a new pavilion at the University of Chicago Hospitals, where his wife, Michelle Obama, was a vice president at the time.
So, Barack Obama becomes Senator in 2004, his wife gets nearly a 300% pay raise or almost $200,000 raise in 2005 and then in 2006 Obama puts in an earmark for $1 million for the Hospitals where Michelle Obama works at. And this is legal, how? Thank GOD he was exposed by the Chicago Tribune and it was removed from the bill.
Remember, that $1 million was federal money and YOUR tax money. It was responsible for funding Michelle Obama's pay raise and almost went to building a new wing for her bosses.

Speaking of his books, target carries his biography in the children's book section. Guess the plan is to get them early!

I did notice Obama made up like 5% of all the books in the "Biography" area of the kids section at my local Borders.
