How Much Does Gibbs Make Compared To You?

The White House posted a 29-page list of its employees’ salaries late yesterday…

WH press secretary Robert Gibbs, communications director Anita Dunn and director of speechwriting Jon Favreau all cap out at $172,200. WH deputy press secretary Bill Burton still does well, but doesn’t quite make the David Axelrod, Rahm Emanuel $172,200 salary.

Hotline “On Call” blog points out “Obama lists 487 employees… Obama has 20 employees making the highest salary possible; Bush had 18.” (h/t Playbook)

It feels a little invasive, but you can check out the complete list for yourself here.
