I want to say - thank you for this!

Of course she shouldn't get paid!

Gee, let's see. Her husband is deficit spending like it's going out of style, the entire government is whining about overpaid CEO's and executives, and some people want to pay the first lady to sit around the white house and cruise the skies on the taxpayer dollar? Give me a break you simpletons!

Paying Michelle O-suckme Bama a Salary?

Pay Michelle "Horseface" Obama a salary. We should pay her to get some plastic surgery, so we don't have to look at that butt-ugly face anymore. I'll pitch in a buck!

And after Ole' Long Arms is on the payroll...

Let me guess the next step is to get his pedaphile brother a check.

I can list

87 reasons she shouldn't get a paycheck, but I don't have time to list them all. Number 1 is that no First Lady has ever gotten a paycheck for her role in the Administration. Number 2 is that she be da First Ho, not the First Lady.
