people like this should be well paid, for they have an important job, but i think $200k/yr should be the limit. how much money do people really need? as for the jet thing, that should be reserved for the president and other high security risk persons. others can fly 1st class and get driven in limos much much cheaper. why doesnt the idiot move to dc already? gah!

I think the exact opposite. Singapore has some of the highest paid public officials in the world, and there has been a direct correlation drawn to the reduction in corruption. I say pay them so much they can't be bought out.

Agreed about the pay, she deserves it, and compared to the menial, D-average, law-breakers getting paid millions to travel/run with the ball and chirp their sneakers, playing games for a living, it's a real bargain.

She is 3rd in command

if Obama and Biden cannot be president.

BIG responsibility. More than all of you combined can muster.


You think that being the 3rd most powerful person in the USA, is reason enough for her to get whatever access she needs to anything ? I think so.


After Obama, these are the most important people:

Order of Presidential Succession

* The Vice President Joseph Biden
* Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi
* President pro tempore of the Senate Robert Byrd
* Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton
* Secretary of the Treasury Timothy Geithner
* Secretary of Defense Robert Gates
* Attorney General Eric Holder
* Secretary of the Interior Ken Salazar
* Secretary of Agriculture Tom Vilsack
* Secretary of Commerce Gary Locke
* Secretary of Labor Hilda Solis
* Secretary of Health and Human Services Kathleen Sebelius
* Secretary of Housing and Urban Development Shaun Donovan
* Secretary of Transportation Ray LaHood
* Secretary of Energy Stephen Chu
* Secretary of Education Arne Duncan
* Secretary of Veterans Affairs Eric Shinseki
* Secretary of Homeland Security Janet Napolitano
