Corruption is Obama's change?  Shocked


One of Obama's Earmark Requests Was for the Hospital That Employs Michelle Obama

Dan Riehl notes, via Amanda Carpenter, that in the list of earmarks he requested, $1 million was requested for the construction of a new hospital pavilion at the University Of Chicago. The request was put in in 2006.

You know who works for the University of Chicago Hospital?

Michelle Obama. She's vice president of community affairs.

As Byron noted, "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."

Looks like that raise was worth it.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe John McCain has never asked for an earmark in his ENTIRE career. Hmm.

Hey, when somebody hits me I'm gonna hit them back.  When it comes to little boys, these two seem to have a fetish for imagining them as sex slaves.  Should I let them live it down?
