Two Harvard Law grads, both w/ 6 figure incomes and living in a mansion - griping about their student loans and mouthing populist, anti-corporate crap - sickening.

What she doesn’t mention is that the helping industry has treated her pretty well. In 2006, the Chicago Tribune reported that Mrs. Obama’s compensation at the University of Chicago Hospital, where she is a vice president for community affairs, jumped from $121,910 in 2004, just before her husband was elected to the Senate, to $316,962 in 2005, just after he took office. And that does not count the money Mrs. Obama receives from serving on corporate boards. Michelle Obama is sounding more and more like Marie Antoinette all the time. The campaign guys are going to have to take her aside and school her in subjects to avoid.

It is astounding that Mrs. Obama's salary went from $121,910. in 2004 to $316,962. in one years time at the University of Chicago Hospital. I submit she is out of sync with what is needed in society-----the colleges and universities have been directing our young women into Social Work for almost 2 decades. Rarely do young men get directed into the same. Mrs. Obama, that is old think--------time to move on and encourage these young women to follow their natural talents whether it be in science, math, research, the corporate world, founding a business, designing a building, being a full time mother. mj
