Snoopy: He's the President, unfortunately in the past pot shots have been taken at Presidents and the like (remember Reagan and I think Pope John Paul II).... so they take trusted medical staff and supplies in case of emergencies.

Yep, they are out for themselves.... This case of the Home secretary claiming over £100,000 for the family home (and classing it as her second home) just because she says she lives with her sister in London whilst working is taking the mickey.

I hope the inquiry does start soon into expenses. They were going to leave the report being done and published until after the elections next year.. But I think they finally got the idea that Joe public is getting very peeved over so much money being spent on what is being considered as pocket lining.
