'Everyone Should Have a Chief of Staff and a Set of Personal Assistants'

I guess America isn't a downright mean country any more. Must be great to have the media slobbering all over you, the ability to buy $540 sneakers and have a set of personal assistants.

Ah, the life of an elitist.

First lady Michelle Obama called her "current life" in the White House "a very blessed situation, because I have what most families don't have -- tons of support all around, not just my mother, but staff and administration. I have a chief of staff and a personal assistant, and everyone needs that."

"Everyone should have a chief of staff and a set of personal assistants," Obama said with a laugh as she spoke before a crowd of business executives meeting today during a "Corporate Voices for Working Families" conference at the Mayflower Hotel in Washington.

Along with the issues of community service and military families, Obama has said as first lady she wants to focus on the struggles of working families.

I bet those "working families" could use a set of personal assistants.

Oh, and an aside to the Washington Post: You might want to start monitoring your comments.
