From Factcheck:

"Michelle Obama's staff was actually no different than that of her predecessor, Laura Bush. "[W]e have exactly the same staff number as Mrs. Bush and our office organization reflects a similar staffing model, so insinuations otherwise are wrong," she said. Lelyveld said that the White House's "personnel records indicate" that there were 24 staffers for Laura Bush at some point. We were able to verify at least 18 staffers for Laura Bush, as of June 30, 2008, via the 2008 White House staff list published in The Washington Post's White House Watch column. Sixteen people were specifically referred to as a "first lady" staffer, and Amy Zantzinger and Dorothy Thornton served as White House social secretary and deputy social secretary, respectively. It's possible that someone with the title of "staff assistant" was assigned to the Office of First Lady as well, as is the case with Michelle Obama's staff.

The combined annual salaries for the 22 staffers we can specifically identify as working for Michelle Obama come to $1.4 million. For the 18 we could identify as working for Laura Bush in 2008, the total is $1.6 million."

Does Michelle Obama have more staff than other first ladies?

No, this is an internet myth. Mrs. Obama has the same number of staff-members as Laura Bush, her predecessor had-- about 24 or 25. Modern First Ladies require larger staffs because they often have to travel (First Ladies are seen as goodwill ambassadors); make many personal appearances; support charities and foundations; and entertain important visitors (foreign dignitaries and their spouses) who come to the White House on official business.
