Who Is Making The Most Money In The White House?

[knucklez92]

well you for got the free private planes, free security, a free big white house, free tax dollars to spend on wars that the president have

[rushindulen]

David axelrod shouldn't get shit, in fact he should pack his bags and go elsewhere, he's such a weak pushover. Have u ever seen him do an interview? If you haven't I'll describe it for you: it usually involves him being bent over with his pants around his ankles.

[BrittPhillips]

Can you really bank $43,945.75 in 30 days with ZERO investment? Here's what I know about it. People will do it with this... Passive Income Advice [dot] com.

[Lonao]

you guys should told who make the least of money in white house

[OutlawzAKA]

fuck that..........I need job in white house.

[Paetaor]

His speach writer gets a lot.

What about his teleprompter?

[AntigoneRisen]

I just hope that Bush's speech writer got paid a lot more. There should be some compensation for having to take credit for Bush's language-mangling speeches. I wouldn't want them on my resume.

[JM111787]

The president of my university make the same amount as Obama and he gets summers off. now that's crazy

[charms71]

@JM111787 but US Presidents get enormous allowances, gifts, etc. If u calculate the actual figures they rack up in a year, it's definitely in the millions.

[JM111787]

@charms71 lol, so did my university president and he didn't have to account for those gifts or the money he spent in this expense account.

[charms71]

@JM111787 that's amazing.

[jakobdrewaut]

"we'll take it"

That made me laugh. But who would entertain us on rainy days or while at work?

[ijusttom]

Brian cowan irish "prime minister" gets $435k of my taxes :(

[filthybritches]

the white house is surrounded by poverty

[cagedtigersteve]

The DC area is a an expensive place to live...100K in DC might be like 60K elsewhere.

[moulingalette]

I'm surprised they aren't making more. I worked in a non profit nursing home system for awhile and administrators were making over 100k a year. The people above them make a bit more.

I know their jobs are tough, but I live in Michigan where housing and such isn't as expensive. It seems like people working at fairly high levels in the white house would make more, especially living in the D.C. area.

[medialies100]

$172,000 for Robert Gibbs and Rahm?? That seems very reasonable for such hard jobs, my manager gets paid more :P

[gitterfritter]

None of these pricks should be getting paid this much money. All of government should have their pay lowered until they actually do something right. Which would be never.

[adarkenedmind]

Cenk, i think the political adviser deserves a good amount of pay because his job can make or break a lot of things that the President wants to do to help change america for the better and pull us out of this financial crisis

[flyingtorpedo]

I wonder how much Cenk makes hahahahahah

[Casadh]

Flyingtorpedo hates Cenk like a smoker hates cigarettes. I wonder how much time flyingtorpedo has spent trying to insult Cenk on nearly every video possible. What's with the silly grudge? Did Cenk get the last piece of pumpkin pie that you wanted or something? Haha. Seriously.

[flyingtorpedo]

Riggght. Your earler comment showed more intelligence than this one. Not Surprised. Actually alot of people would be interested to know how much Cenk makes. I'd love to know how much people get paid for making you tube videos. Open up your mind a little bit, instead of following blindly like a lemming.

[Casadh]

Hahaha. Flyingtorpedo, give me a break. I looked at your comments here and elsewhere. And you talk about having an open mind? Hahahaha. Oh god. Please reply with another comment and show your hypocrisy even worse. I can't wait.

[p12psicop]

Go back to your canine you mooching fuck. Pay your monthly subscription fee to the Young Turks and stop mooching off them on Youtube. You're a mooching parasite just like all the other conservative idiots out there living in trailer parks with their food stamps and radios tuned to Rush Limp-dick.

[p12psicop]

He makes you think of his crotch daily while you blow your dog.

[keithrachelcenk]

axelrod is the brain

[Silberdachs]

TROLL ALERT!

donottake

Do not feed this worthless racist piece of shit.

[Claymenza]

Reggie Love didn't swat the fly when he was required to do it.

[macarion]

Fetches him coke whenever he needs it.

[savior02]

that doesnt include sll the bribes these corrupted officials take compared to that thats chump change..washington your fired!

[sunnyallthetime]

How much does Cenk make?

[donottake]

All I know is that he makes an ass out of himself.

[socarulz]

the president only makes 400,000? wow, thats a small amount.

[FireRoseX5]

lol I know it's funny the President makes way less than a movie star. I love America! hahaha

[SquallCloud]

Reggie Love is so hot.

Now to say something relevant, I agree that Axelrod should probably be in that next tier of salary getters but he probably would have gone back to a lucrative private sector business if he had not at least gotten the $172thousand

[plokowitsch]

donottake you mindless troll.

[rorrt]

with the title of the vid, it made it sound like Barak Obamas wife got more than him, i think shes involved in law, or something like that.

[calvinhobbesliker2]

Are these saleries per month or per year?

[Sorgutentarer]

year :)

[kkablan]

But, what about the First Lady?

[seestickglue232]

She lives there for free lol

[outtaspacie]

You don't get paid to be the First Lady. You don't have any official power other than possibly being able to persuade your hubby one way or the other. ;D Good question though.

[DrQuijano]

So you're telling me that the lowest paid senator in Puerto Rico gets more than the U.S. president? ($800,00.00) [Highest paid is 1.5 mil]. That goes to show there's something wrong in this backwater island (which is a territory of the US). I wonder if there's anything the federal government could do to set a maximum salary for senators and other government officials...

[friction00815]

Robert Gibbs gets paid to be that bad at his job? he's the laughing stock of D.C. a total joke. only thing more amazing is that Obamba hasn't fired his mumbling bumbling ass yet. I've never heard or read anything from anybody who thinks Gibbs is a strong press secretary yet there he is day after day sucking big time and getting laughed at.

[slivercord]

i think they get paid alot more..but ok

[yellow2856]

PLEASE tell us what their perks cost.

[buakawkaoklai]

joe biden is the man..

[ameshabyebye]

Dear Cenk,

Who gives a shit when California is bankrupt and the rest of the US is going down the tubes, but we're still handing out 10 MILLION DOLLARS A DAY to these filthy zionist warmongers that got us into Afghanstan and Iraq wars.......Uhhhh!!?

[sheeeesh1]

que ?

[1315229]

The Bush administration got the U.S into Iraq and Afghanistan and it was during them the economy crisis started. The Current one is sorting everything out, getting the economy straight, getting U.S out of Iraq etc. I think those people that those all that deserve what they are paid and then some- Uhhh!

[ibwilliamsi]

It's sad that donottake has nothing better to do than make off-topic racial slurs on TYT videos. You have to wonder what turns a person into such a loser.

[bricefabber]

donottake was raised to hate smart people, black people, and homosexuals. However, as he grew up, he realized that he was gay, and that smart black guys really turn him on. Can you imagine the dilemma? The anguish? He has a huge crush on Obama (he's totally obsessed with the man) and so he thinks that insulting him every day will somehow "cure" him. It's quite sad...

[ibwilliamsi]

That has to be one of the funniest things I have read in weeks! LOL!

[JamesAnderyourstruly]

in 24 the PA is always a piece of shit

[esteban0321]

I dont have a problem with how much these guys are getting paid. There are schoolboard chairmen that make more than some of these guys. I'm actually suprised that no one makes more than the president considering the pres has no expenses while he's in office and will definitly make huge jack when he gets out. If they were making millions like in some 3rd world contries it would be a problem but I'm fine with this.

[BobAvocado]

Fuck you Cenk. Anyone that serves the president deserves the dosh.

[grebrim]

No issues with any of those salaries, they're far from exagerated.

I guess as a White House official, there are other ways to get piad....

[kingofheartsxyz]

400,000 dollars a month ?

[darktoadthesticky]

How much in Lobby bribes???

[Cypha1]

you are a right wing trailer park redneck moron who likes to have sex with animals. if you donottake dont concur with my comment jump from a 10 story building

[Cypha1]

you idiot i am not black hahahahahah i am caucasian you stupidass redneck,,,,,hahahah....your stupidity must hurt...oh boy what a moron

[goldgrif]

and you love to be on your knees getting from both ends, donkeypunched scum sucker

[CanadianNew]

He is left as it gets

[1mealperday]

lets be better than this

[pinochet222]

for fuck's sake, they ain't in it for the money!

Those people are making history and serve the most powerful office in the world.

[l0gically]

It's a loss leader to a much more lucrative position after they leave office. Speaking engagements, books, lobbying, and any number of companies that will pay big bucks for a direct connection to the white house. Cheney and Rumsfeld know all about that.

[dylanshane]

Our politicians get paid something around the same amount as yours do but a lot of Australian politicians own businesses and are the CEO of some, The opposition to the prime ministers cabinet Malcolm turnbull has a net wealth of 150million$ and I wonder If US politicians have big stakes in business company's too

[bhutos]

They can't have any investments to do with their portfolios though. The reason Malcolm is in the rich list this year is because he had to set much of his activity aside after entering parliament meaning that he cashed out at the height of the boom and missed a lot of the GFC losses..

[sugarpuddin88]

Probably all the lobbyists Obama hired on!

(Even though he promised he wouldn't do that)

Just face it: Americans like to bend over and take it like a little yatch!

[donottake]

The fat guy is saying 0bama pays some clown $102Gs to get him his cocaine. This administration is as fucked up as it can be. I can't wait for the books to come out of that white house in 4 years.

[bigballa269]

bush...

nuff said

[donottake]

Another drone. Repeat after the drones:

hope, change, bush, hope, change, bush, hope, change, bush.

Meanwhile, while the drones are chanting, 0bama is destroying my country.

[bigballa269]

Mothereffer!! Dont you call me a drone! Your the F-ing only drone here. Your so wrong you comment didnt last 30 mins!

Now you want to talk about destroying the country. hahaha go make hand love to yourself. ....Bush anyone?

But whats funny is that i disagree with obama, but you assume i LOVE Obama. Your so STUPID

[donottake]

Listen to the drones ape 0bama:

bush bush bush bush bush bush bush

change change change change change

hope hope hope hope hope hope hope

[6Nutsack9]

Why do you comment every tyt video? If you dont like what hes saying you dont have to watch any of the videos. Im sure Rush limbaugh has a podcast.

[bigballa269]

Listen? Clean the sh!t out of your ears. I just said i dont like obama!!!! But to you there are only 2 types of people. People who like him and people who hate him.

bitttch aint nobody praising him! BUSH BUSH? He get blamed for 1% of what he actually did.

Even 20 yrs frm now

F Bush!F Bush!F Bush!F Bush!

F Bush!F Bush!F Bush!F Bush!

[donottake]

Get Bush out of your brain, the man has been retired for 6 months already and he does not even say a word why he could be blasting 0bama to hell by now.

0bama is fucking up royally right under your nose and all you can think about is Bush.

[IndiMusicLover]

You're in Obama hell huh donottake.......Good!!

[sidvidle]

He can't say anything, he laying low, you idiot! After all the disasters he has caused, he can't keep bringing attention to it! You really have no clue how politics work do you?

[sidvidle]

Ape? Wow, one thing about you racists is that you are never original, you always repeat EXACTLY what you were told to repeat, like... Yes, drones. LOLOLOLOLOLOL!

[phosoxrad]

he's just a troll. he craves attention. don't give him what he wants!

[etbitmydogucf]

If you're the head speech writer for the president of the united states, I think 200K is a fair price. That's the highest profile speech writer in possibly the world.

[acronus]

Uninformed schmo. Bush made $400,000 a year, Clinton too. The majority of your countries debt existed long before Obama even took office.

[donottake]

Fuck 0bama. He should be made to pay back all of the debt he is causing.

[acronus]

So should Bush and his cronies. The debt in 2000 was 5.7 Trillion. By the end of 2008, it was 10.7 Trillion. But don't take my word for it. Look up the statistics.

The Bush admin spent 5 Trillion dollars, and what does your country have to show for it?

[donottake]

Repeat after the drones:

change change change change change

hope hope hope hope hope hope hope

blame bush blame bush blame bush

You are now an official 0bama drone. Pick up your official diploma with the 0 IQ on it.

[snaxel3971]

people blame bush because its clear that he made a fucking mess in the international economy amongst other things. what does it mean that a diploma has 0 iq on it? does'nt make much sence. and why is it official? you are not too clever are you

[savior02]

it mean he was well connected...and yes bush made a fucking mess....but obama is making a bigger 1

[donottake]

People are tired of 0bama's lame effort of blaming Bush for all of 0bama's ineptitude. You have to admit that Bush looks awful damn good compared to 0bama. You can't hide behind your racism forever.

[snaxel3971]

wtf are u talking bout? obama has been way soft on bush. i would burry his ass for the war, the torture, the economic failure and so on... why am i racist?? watch some real news, this is embarressing

[acronus]

You have nothing intelligent to add, so you go into attack mode.

How do you explain the massive debt and market turmoil that has occurred over the last few years? (while the GOP was in charge)

[donottake]

Why don't you start blaming Nixon since people are tired of 0bama blaming Bush for 0bama's own screw ups.

Hiding behind a black president can only last so long. The racism is getting old.

[acronus]

Ok, blame Nixon (another Republican) for the current state of your healthcare system (or lack of). Nixon implemented the private healthcare system that's currently in place in your country. Healthcare premiums are one of the major factors that's crippling your countries economy.

Who said anything about racism? I don't care if Obama is Black, white, or Oompa Loompa orange. He still has a hell of a job ahead of him fixing your economy and repairing America's tarnished reputation .

[donottake]

Have you blamed George Washington yet? Pretty soon you will run out of presidents to blame and you will finally have to concede that 0bama was nothing but a fucked up product out of wright's racist antiAmerican church.

You can wish and hope for a black messiah all you want but it does not mean it will ever happen.

[acronus]

You're taking the same stance that Limbaugh is taking, that the whole economic situation is Obama's fault (despite that fact that it started long before he took office).

Again, you're putting words in my mouth. Obama is NOT a messiah of any kind. And he has as of thus far been pretty ineffective at making any real change. However, if you look at all the legislation he has tried to push through, the republicans have voted against him every single time, no matter what it is.

Catch 22

[donottake]

0bama is the worst thing that ever happened to the US. If I had a fantasy of living under a black man's rule I would have moved to an African country or Haiti and got that experience. After getting that experience I would finally wake up to reality and understand that living under black rule is not what the fantasy was supposed to be.

[acronus]

Again with the attack mode. You have nothing relevant to add, so you attack his ethnicity. I some how figured you for something other than an angry hick, guess I was mistaken.

An attack for you, written as a haiku.

Do-not-take is fake

Intelligence is lacking

Do-not-take his words

[donottake]

You are obviously a racist. It always comes out of you people.

[Cazz814]

Wait a minute I remember you! The "0bama" guy

[atlant80]

Ugh, the stupid. Does it hurt to be that dumb, because if it does, you must be in constant pain.

[donottake]

You must be speaking from experience.

[atlant80]

Why do you even stalk and troll TYT? Like on EVERY video, there you are! Tell me, do you get paid to troll, because if so, tell your employers that you are only proving us liberals right.

[Cazz814]

So you're saying America is a nation where only a white man is supposed to president?

[donottake]

That is how rumors get started.

[sidvidle]

So you prove that you are the fucking racist. The only reason you are anti-Obama is because he is black! You are such a loser...

So you are saying all african countries are the same and they are like Haiti???? You are so delusional to compare over 60 countries as the same, name me 3 black presidents off the top of your head, you can't right? Cuz you think it's one country. Sad Palin school of geography here...

[econchick]

your awesome

[sidvidle]

Thanks! I enjoy replying to Donottake, he/she never replies though because he knows I'm a conservative, lol! And I think they get some sort of fascist memo to never attack another conservative (in the American republican party that is, which in the last 20 years has NOTHING to do with actual conservatism, nada! Ooh, used a ''mexican'' word, I'm now for illegal immigration in their book;)). These neo-cons piss me off! With their crazy extremist religious beliefs, big corps and big Pharma... Crazy

[econchick]

hahaha true, your funny. god people realy need to think before they post comments.

[Cazz814]

I agree 100% and even if Obama does fix the economy, unemployment, etc. Limbaugh and other Conservatives will still bitch and moan.

[hlssmat]

Like you liberals did to bush?

oh the irony/

[Cazz814]

I guess so, but I myself even as a Liberal tried not to be too hard on Bush. Really all I dislike him for is the War in Iraq. See that's the thing with the differences between the two political ideologies it's a never-ending cycle. One side ignorantly despises one president and then the favor is returned to the next one. It's never going to end due to vast party differences.

[prodigyat9]

"Limbaugh and other Conservatives will still bitch and moan. "

What do you expect from a drug addict?

[Cazz814]

Yeah you're right I forgot to mention that. Haha.

[badtown88]

I hope you don't like Reagan either. His followers are just as frightening. And they have guns...

[donottake]

Reagan has been out of office for 20 years. Meanwhile the US is burning while a bunch of racists sing kumbaya we have a black president.

[badtown88]

My point was that you talk about blind followers of Obama being knuckleheads (and they are), but many people who say such things also touch themselves to pictures of Ronnie Reagan. I just wanted to make sure you weren't a hypocrite. You're not, right?

[donottake]

I am not dumb enough to belong to a cult or think anyone is a messiah. All of the 0bama dipshits are cult followers who thought 0bama was going to make the entire world ten times better than it was before he came around. When that did not happen all they can do is blame Bush and that is getting real old.

[badtown88]

Well Bush should be blamed. He promised small government and left us with bigger government than we had under Bill Jeff. And by the way, not everyone who voted for Obama thought he was the messiah. There are such things as teamsters, teachers, laborors, firemen, and other groups who believe in unions who voted for him soley for economic reasons, not because they wanted to blow him.

[donottake]

I am not on Bush's bandwagon, many of us disagreed with the TARP and amnesty for illegals. Those policies are supported by 0bama and you drones. 0bama is TARP times ten.

[cheesothegreat]

yes... I look outside and OH MY GOD!!! THE HUMANITY!!!! dumbass

[snaxel3971]

watching to much fox "news" channel maybe???

[kleei2]

Actually I think presidential pay doubled under Bush... it was 200k if I'm not mistaken

[CalexanderJ]

wait.... Jon Favreau makes as much as Rahm Emmanuel???? Rahm must be pissed.

[walifred]

does the first lady get a salary?

[sidvidle]

Again with the stupid comments... You asked for it...

Why do you call women you never met bitches? What has she done that was mean or evil to another person or group? So are all first ladies bitches in your mind? Explain exactly what is bitchy or mean about giving up your career regardles of how competent you are, raise your children to not be spoiled brats, charity and philanthropic work AND support your husband's career for the sake your country basically sacrificing your own goals and dreams

[QuantumMechanist]

Clinton had the hottest body person. Huma Abedin. There's a couple of quality shot of her on the net.

[BrightWave]

Great to see a Duke grad getting some luv on TYT!

[matereymate]

i want to be 'butt' boy too =(

[notscooter952]

Woulda thought Hillary was number three. Guess not.

[Zed2six]

I thought the white house head chef would be up there

[Dantinus]

Don't forget all the cool perks such as Air Force 1, Secret Service protection, free food and housing (all amenities covered), and the satisfication of knowing that you are serving the American people.

[wo0ow1987]

i think the president should earn 400,000$ monthly, man i am from a country where the king has no salary the treasury pays for anything he wants and i guess the US is far richer than my country

[UltimoLatino]

It doesnt work that way hear..... the president gets a basically token salary from the tax payers here. Because when you become the president its basically like being SET FOR LIFE. No matter what you will never experience financial hardship. One way or another you get whatever you want.

We just have to give the image of modesty in compensation.

[jfizz313]

yea i make more than the president and i in no way have a harder job than him

[MuslimByChoice]

thats because there are human rights in your country, the king is a dictator ..so what do you expect..I hope all arab countries to declare Bankruptcy becoz of the finanical crisis ..who knows maybe they will start thinking of their ppl then ..

[shark5643]

I suggest everyone in the white house makes a dollar a year. Its an honor to work there!

[acronus]

I like how John Cleese described Palin.

"People watching her on T.V, can they not see that she's basically learned certain speeches, and she does them very well, but it's like a nice looking Parrot. The Parrot speaks beautifully and kinda says "aw shucks" every now and again, but doesn't really have any understanding of the meaning of the words it's producing, even though it's producing them very accurately".

I feel the same way.

[chotwheels]

fourth

[zogg18]

It's ridiculous the president should be getting at least a million a year. The prime minister of Ireland makes over $400,000 a year.

[BABABABA5555]

Oh, of COURSE the president should make a million a year. Just what we need, even more of an incentive for people to run for office for the wrong reasons.

[acronus]

The hope is that if the President makes enough money as it is, he will be dissuaded against taking bribes. That's the hope anyway. I don't think it's that successful mind you.

[zogg18]

So you want people to sacrifice themselves to the office of the presidency. I want the best and the brightest. I want a president to be compensated for his work. For the US I'd put the presidents pay check at about 10 million a year.

[BABABABA5555]

Why are you people so gung ho about forking your money over to our "rulers?"

Besides, the best and the brightest are really damn good at milking as much money out of their job as possible, as seen with wall street in our nice little economic crisis. 400,000 a year is quite a good sum, since most of his expenses aren't even paid out of that salary anyways. 10 million my ass.

[eirefrance]

You mean like all those CEOs making billions who ran their companies so well? At a certain point, higher compensation provides diminishing returns and some people are attracted to other parts of the job.

[goldgrif]

the costs ahve been going up, and though I agree with you, when March Kaptur tried to return the money back in the 90s??, she got in trouble

[zogg18]

I think democracies should offer incentives. 10 million should be Obamas incentive.

[grecojones84]

First?

[07liberian]

Go To Hell !!!
