As if we needed ANOTHER reason not to vote for Obama?

HOW TO SAVE THE GOVERNMENT MILLIONS

A president's pension currently is $191,300 per year. Assuming the next president lives to age 80. Sen. McCain would receive ZERO pension as he would reach 80 at the end of two terms as president. Sen. Obama would be retired for 26 years after two terms and would receive $4,973,800 in pension.
Therefore it would certainly make economic sense to elect McCain in November. This one made me laugh..but ya know..??!!
(thanks, Gail!)

4.9 million! that's no laughing matter Z. He'd be set for life. All he'd have to do then was charge big bucks to talk to the masses about poverty and life on struggle street.

The saddest part about this is the thought of exactly how much we've already paid Jimmy Carter for being the WORST President EVER!!!

Paraphrasing the Bard:

Good thinking! I love it.

Pops, it was DELICIOUS!!

I had a head of cabbage and a piece of salmon.
"WHAT TO DO?!" So..I VERY thinly sliced the cabbage and an onion and sauteed them a bit... then I added some Dijon mustard, apple cidar vinegar (only a little), black pepper, a bit of that mustard with the whole seeds in it.....and sauteed it all until about half way cooked...then put it in a long Pyrex plate, laid the salmon on top and coated it with a thin layer of both the 2 mustards and baked at 450 for 30 minutes....(you could do less, Mr. Z likes his fish COOKED, tho he loves sushi, too!?)

Try it...I'm proud of this invention! xxx

Ya gotta love libs. Maybe he can tour with the honorable Rev Wright who can talk about religious tolerance.
