If Hillary wins in 2008 and Bill is 'appointed' to fill her Senate seat and either live to retire 'they' (together or alone) would get two US Presidential retirement checks, two US Senate retirement checks, and a retirement check from the State of Arkansas .
AND THE REST OF THE STORY... Hilarious Rotten Clinton, as a New York State Senator, now comes under the 'Congressional Retirement and Staffing Plan,' which means that even if she never gets reelected, she STILL receives her Congressional salary until she dies. (Would it not be nice if all Americans were pension eligible after only 4 years?)
If Bill outlives her, he then inherits HER salary until HE dies. He is already getting his Presidential salary until he dies. If Hillary outlives Bill, she also gets HIS salary until she dies. Guess who pays for that?
It's common knowledge that in order for her to establish NY residency, they purchased a million dollar-plus house in upscale Chappaqua, New York . Makes sense! They are entitled to Secret Service protection for life. Still makes sense.
Here is where it becomes interesting( and just about chaps my hide). Their mortgage payments hover at around $10,000 per month. BUT, an extra residence 'had' to be built within the acreage to house the Secret Service agents. The Clintons charge the Federal government $10,000 monthly rent for the use of that extra residence, which is about equal to their mortgage payment. This means that we, the taxpayers, are paying the Clinton's salary, mortgage, transportation, safety and security, as well as the salaries for their 12 man staff -- and, this is all perfectly legal!

BORN AND RAISED IN PHOENIX. MY GRANDPARENTS MOVED HERE FROM SIOUX CITY IN 1948 ON THEIR WAY TO BURBANK CALIFORNIA, BUT NEVER LEFT. I ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT HERE. I AM A TRUE DESERT RAT. HOWEVER I FEAR THAT THE DESERT THAT I LOVE IS FADING AWAY. I AM THE 7th GENERATION BORN HERE IN THE USA, MY DAUGHTER IS THE 8th. I LOVE MY COUNTRY AND CONSIDER MYSELF A PATRIOT, BUT I FEAR MY GOVERNMENT FOR THEY ARE TRULY RUNNING THIS COUNTRY INTO THE GROUND AND/OR SELLING IT OUT TO THE HIGHEST BIDDER.
