				| : Another election tidbit 
 
 
 Most of us haven't thought about this no matter how much we
 like or dislike John Kerry.
 WOW! Those figures have to be staggering.
 
 You will pay upkeep/Secret Service for 5 Kerry mansions.
 It is good to be John F. Kerry....... The F stands for
 Forbes in case you ever wondered.  He is one of the richest
 Senators in Government. When someone is elected president,
 it means the Secret Service has to protect the President and
 his family as well as his property.
 
 The Kerry's have five US properties not counting the several
 foreign properties they own too. The cost to run these homes
 are more than what the average American could afford, even
 if the rent was free, and all you had to pay the water, gas
 & electric. Including ground keepers, maintenance, pool, and
 house keepers.
 
 To be President would require the taxpayers to pay for all
 that now if elected. Including a complete staffed Secret
 Service security 24 hours a day. In addition to that we will
 have to pay for each of their homes for security
 improvements even if they never go to them all, that is,
 that just in case. Who do you think will pay for all this?
 We Pay! This takes all the expense off Kerry and puts it on
 us.
 
 Nevertheless, factor another major cost to Americans that
 Kerry does not want you to know about:
 
 Becoming President would automatically include taking care
 of all their properties with Secret Service Agents that
 includes 5 agents per 6 hour shift 4 times a day 365 days of
 the year for the rest of their lives so long as they own
 those properties. It comes with being President, once you
 are elected. It requires us the tax payers, to pay for this
 as well as his annual salary, as well as his retirements
 including the cost of living adjustments to boot, plus
 salaries and protection for all their real estate property,
 plus Secret Service Agents, and pay the bills for the rest
 of his life.
 
 In addition, feed the Secret Service Agents and rotate new
 ones every 6 hours for the rest of his life.
 
 Do the math. Five properties need to be protected. This
 requires five Secret Service Agents per shift, daily every
 six hours, per property! That is 20 Secret Service Agents
 per day per property everyday including Holidays. Wow, what
 does that cost?
 
 Lets say an average of 20 agents per property, each
 earning a about $60K per agent to survey the perimeters and
 protect. Now times that by five properties so far. That is
 if the Kerrys do not buy any more properties afterwards.
 This also includes the Agents vehicles and repairs, gas,
 meals, days off, paid vacation, and medical plan visits etc
 per agent.
 
 Who pays? YOU pay, the whole time they are alive after
 becoming President! Is this the best use of our tax money
 electing Kerry to take care of all their properties, both
 foreign and domestic? On the other hand, shouldn't he pay
 for his own? Yet, the Presidential salary could not afford
 it.
 
 The more I think about paying for Kerrys properties everyday
 , just makes me happy keeping President Bush all
 the more merrier.
 
 Without raising taxes to boot. How on earth would Kerry
 pay for everyone to have Healthcare, increase our military,
 and have us pay to protect his investments, all without
 raising our taxes? Tax and spend Kerry - is his party motto.
 
 Which really has to make you wonder why anyone with his
 wealth, would take a salary of that of a U.S. Senator, never
 mind wanna be President? Do you believe now why he needs to
 be the Prez? To serve the people? On the other hand, the
 people serve Him and his wife!
 
 Please pass the Mustard and do America a favor and pass this
 to your friends, lets keep Bush a resident in the White
 House, and not have to protect another Kerry house, and save
 money!
 
 and viva Del Monte Ketchup !
 
 Even sadder if the SOB doesn't show up for work!!!!!!!!!!!!
