 These salaries add up to $6,364,000 for four years in office.  My guess is they had fun sitting down thinking up all of these titles.  I have said it before and I'll say it again, before Obama can bring about a socialist "One World Order," one of the criteria is that he has to bring the United States down economically (I mean economic ruin) by spending as much as he possibly can, as fast as he can, and that's exactly what he's been doing for the last three years.  It's gotten so bad, since when have you ever heard, as you do now, that we are on the brink of shutting down the federal government?  He should be most pleased with himself.
