The Richest Congressmen: Exposed
Politicians: They're Nothing Like Their Constituents
 

Finally, a list of the 50 richest members of Congress (27 Republicans, 23 Democrats)!

As you may have been able to guess, John Kerry is the absolute richest fuckin' millionaire in Congress today, worth about $231 million that the government knows of. And that's not even counting his wife's ketchup money. Second richest is Jane Harman, who's rolling in just under $226 million made from the sale of Harman Kardon electronics.

Presidential candidate John McCain is the nation's 13th richest congressman, with almost $20 million to his name. Not that twenty mill is anything to sneeze at, but McCain's largest assets are all listed in the name of his wife, Cindy, whose worth reportedly exceeds $100 million.

The disgusting celebrity elitist Barack Obama is nowhere on the list.

$20 mil, eh? Why, that's almost 1/5 of what Bill Clinton has made in speaking and consulting fees from the people he pardoned or greased the skids for while in the White House.
McCain '08!!!

I don't know if it counts if it's your wife's money and you signed a prenup. If Kerry or McCain's wives die, do the kids get the money or the husband? I'm betting on the kids.

I remember in high school reading the very patriotic, and touching missive on the Statue Of Liberty. Once the world looked to the United States of American as the land of freedom and opportunity. Some came here dirt poor, and with their efforts became wealthy. Some came here dirt poor and expected wealth to be theirs by some inborn right, therefore becoming bitter and hateful toward others who did gain wealth. God Bless America! In this election November 4th, it's vital that ALL American's study the issues, and the voting record of the candidates to better understand who they REALLY are….before they began their massive press rhetoric. Our country is at a turning point, and what we the voters do now will determin the path taken. The results will be totally OUR responsibility. Before you tuck your children into beds at night…think long and hard of the facts, not the B.S. and not the emotion raised during the celebrity like press. Hint: research how this economic disaster first began.

How much money the candidate has does not matter to me. I am not jealous of someone's success. Do we dislike actors and musicians according to their income? What is more important to me is their values, their voting record, and where they stand on the issues.
