Michelle's let's talk about the little people and convince them we care speech.

Just last week, in her speech to the Democratic Convention, Saint Michelle OBAMA claims she left behind a lucrative law practice to work for the "people."  Translated into "liberalspeak" Low pay but  emotionally rewarding.   This is her statement:

And in my own life, in my own small way, I’ve tried to give back to this country that has given me so much. That’s why I left a job at a law firm for a career in public service, working to empower young people to volunteer in their communities.

The truth she failed to mention is that she was paid quite handsomely (her annual salary increased from $121,910 to $316,962) to be a Vice President at University of Chicago Hospital.  I quess that is Michelle OBAMA's version of public service.
