When Jenna and Barbara go jet-setting around the world, who pays for that?

[DesEtoiles]

[Hokie]

1. Just adds to te deficit

What-me-worry

[1932]

2. Trust funds.

The question is where did those trust funds get their funds.

3. Are they "jet-setting" on Air Force 1?

Or did they buy their tickets with oil money?

[blm]

4. For certain WE are paying for their secret service budget.

When they travel around it requires more coverage and expense for the basic SS needs, too.

[onehandle]

6. Yep.

Their travel bills are nothing next to their protection budget.

5. I will pay for it if they go to Iraq.

[DesEtoiles]

9. Not those spoiled brats! Selfish little ingrates.

7. They probably pay their own expenses; but the taxpayers get

stuck with the protection, etc., etc., etc.

Oh, well. America's rich. We can't afford national health care, of course; but, hey, no society's perfect. We're NUMBER ONE!

8. Bush family has lots of cash

Look up Poppy's dealings with Barrick Gold and Chubb Insurance.

10. I can live with that.

Otherwise, when we take back the White House we will have Tom Delay demanding an audit every time the president's family leaves the East Wing. Secret Service comes with the gig, and your kids, even your underage drinking doofus kids, get it too.

11. Knew A Friend Of Jennas. She Finds It Very Funny That Everytime She

wanted to get laid the Secret service shuts down the dorm where her boyfriend lived.

I told he that was a waste of my tax money. She was pissed at me.

I have no interest in paying for Jenna to get laid in a nice secure facility.

Can't she use a car like normal people?

[Benhurst]

12. Or a pig stye at the pig farm.

[DefenseLawyer]

13. Seriously though

Did you ever once think Chelsea had too much security? It just sounds like something that Newt would have complained about to me. I have no idea how much security for the president's family is, but I'm sure it's 1000 times less than one failed test of SDI or the cost of a few days in Iraq.
