Saving the US Gov't millions of dollars!
« on: August 24, 2008, 05:48:20 AM »
Shamelessly plagiarised from a mailing list:

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.

How's that for non partisan thinking???
