    I don't spend nearly that much on my housekeeper and farmhand.

    but I do provide them a seperate home on the farm and all utilities and such paid. Free Satellite TV, They have health insurance. They also run a few head of cattle in with mine. Free truck to drive. free cellphone, And most of their food is free.
    I don't pay a big salary, but considering the benefits they are doing pretty well.
    She is a great cook but does not do arugula.
    A nice couple with a couple little kids. they seem very happy here.
    He is taking classes at the local VOTECH.

    I had fresh green beans, fresh corn on the cob, fresh out of the garden sliced tomatoes and taters with cornbread for supper. A bit of devilsfood cake for desert. burp.... We all eat supper in my house and after cleanup they retire to their house.

    Is that what your messiah's candidacy has come down to, asshole?

    Absolutely pathetic...

    Ironically, this bullshit started the day after Obama's miserable performance on Rick Warren's forum. Coincidence? I hardly think so...

    Besides, what about John Kerry, the richest candidate for President in U.S. history?

    I think what cypress is trying to say here is that mccain is trying to portray obama as this elietist who is out of touch with everyday americans, when in reality it's mccain who is so loaded how can he relate to normal pion folks like myself?

    Looks to me like USC isn't hatin on anybody. Sounds like he has a good setup and his hired hands do to.

    My only hired servant gets paid almost everything I make and she doesn't listen worth a damn. She gets the same health insurance I get at work, and she gets my retirement money if I die. But she still acts like she runs the household. Probably should have just hired someone instead of marrying someone.

    Hilarious. Touched a nerve with the McCainics. I think it's because he's already settled on Multiple Choice Mitt as his running mate and the imagery of Multi-Millionaire McCain and Multiple-Millionaire Mitt with the 15-20 homes between them just plain looks bad.

    must be nice to have that sort of money - but then the reps have been out of touch with average people like forever

    they think that average people are ok as long as they keep their place
