But until then, this isn't much of a story to me

That is exactly the lackadaisical type attitude people have that has gotten us to where we are now as a nation.

Just a thought:
We are in a major recession. Not sure if you guys have heard of that. Generally the medical field is fairly recession proof, and I'm sure they are doing fine, but even they are feeling the effects of the spiraling economy.
While most of the cuts are entry level and low wage employees, even the high-overhead upper management jobs are being completely phased out for the time being.
I'm not even sure how this is "news worthy" unless you have some real reason to believe something fishy is/was going on.

That's weird, loses its effect when it's not mud aimed at a public figure.

It's not exactly unheard of that a position be created for a powerhouse individual. You know, the type of person who graduates with honors from Princeton.
And of course it is no great mystery why the job would be scrapped after she left.
What exactly are you suggesting she did?

I am surprised that Blago's wife wasn't chomping at the bit to get that sweet job.
BTW Michelle's part time salary dropped to $100k while she went part time during the campaign. Why didn't she just take a part time weekend job at J. Crew to get the discounts?

J. Crew? Is that where she got the infamous 'black widow spider' dress?
