Michelle Obama’s relationship with Princeton classmate Toni McCall Townes-Whitley, whose company earned the no-bid contract to design the disastrous Healthcare.Gov Obamacare website, continued after the Obamas moved into the White House.

Townes-Whitley and her husband even enjoyed “Christmas with the Obamas” at the White House in December 2010, according to a Facebook album created by Townes-Whitley.

Although neither Michelle Obama nor Townes-Whitley has discussed their relationship, the Christmas event took place just seven months after Townes-Whitley joined CGI Federal as a senior vice president.

If that doesn't sound like the sweetheart deal Michelle got when she was paid a quarter of a million dollars as Vice President for Community and External Affairs at University of Chicago Hospitals while her husband was in the IL state legislature.

It's the Chicago way.

Heard this from a W.Va. state employee today:
Quote
The State of WV, in its infinite wisdom, awarded a contract to a tech vendor to create something called "WVOASIS".  This computer system will completely replace the financial and administrative systems used by all state agencies.  Price tag - nearly $100 million.  Unfortunately, however, there already have been setbacks and missed deadlines.

 Name of vendor = CGI.
