Huckabee's Piece of the RockLittle Rock living at its finest-5,124-sq.-ft. home with deck and pool. To furnish, simply set up a registry for gifts (wink, wink!) at a local department store as you leave the governor's mansion. Everyday low price: $525,000.
Thompson's McLean GetawayTucked away in exclusive McLean, Virginia, this roomy 7BR/5BA brick house features screened porches, wood deck, and 4-car garage. Perfect location for your next Scooter Libby Defense Fund shindig. Only $3.3 million.
Giuliani's East Side Story
Goodbye, gay housemates; hello wife No. 3 and sumptuous 9RM apt on Manhattan's Upper East Side! Walnut-paneled dining room and a cigar room lend Old World charm to this urban love shack. A steal at $5 million.
McCain's RetreatCombine two units in Phoenix's brand-new luxury-condo tower for $4.7 million. Or gallop down to your $1.1 million, 6.6-acre Sedona ranch (featured by Home & Garden!). Plenty of room to park the "Straight Talk Express".
Romney's Roost
Are your 2.5 acres in the Boston burbs and $3 million New Hampshire getaway (above) feeling too East Coast elite? Declare a ski lodge on Rising Star Lane in Park City, Utah, your primary residence. Catch it for $5.2 million.
Edwards' Southern ComfortOne of the "two Americas" feels worlds away at this expansive Chapel Hill estate. 21,000-sq.-ft. home nestled on 100 acres; includes b-ball court, racquetball court, and pool. Valued at $5.4 million. Not enough space? Consider a charming 2,800-sq.-ft. beach house on the North Carolina coast for $1.03 million
Hillary's Empty NestThe ideal Westchester pied-?-terre for a former first family on the go. This 5BR, 5,200-sq.-ft. Dutch Colonial sits on 1.1 acres. Great for establishing residency. Went for $1.7 million in 1999. (Can't make the down payment? Count on fundraiser Terry McAuliffe to front the cash.)
Obama's Plot TwistThis 3-story, 96-yr-old Georgian is close to the hustle and bustle of Chicago's South Side. But with 4 fireplaces and a 1,000-bottle wine cellar, you may never want to leave. Sold for $1.65 million in 2005. Upgrade your property when your next-door buddy (before his felony trial, of course) sells you part of his plot!

I heard Old Huckabee was living in a trailer when he was a minister. He must've grown tired of living in close quarters.
I saw him on Leno, and he talked about that trailer. He lived in a trailer when they were rebuilding the governers mansion. It was a triple wide, and it really looked more like a Modular Home.0 -
anyone who thinks that an ostentatious display of wealth advocates success or leadership ability deserves what they get from who they elect 0 -

I do know that his father was a firefighter so I doubt that they lived a lavish lifestyle on a his old mans salary.0 -
I would love to see a photo of George Bush's Texas "ranch."
Have you noticed that there has never been a photo published of it?0 -

Your average American cannot afford to run for POTUS. You have to take off two years of your life just to campaign.
Can YOU afford to do it? I can't.

It was actually a hotlink to another pic. The host of his original pic did it to keep people from stealing his web pics.0 -

I Just copied and pasted my reply from the hotlink thread..
Hotlinking can get you into a mess quick.
Bandwidth theft or "hotlinking" is direct linking to a web site's files (images, video, etc.). An example would be using an <img> tag to display a JPEG image you found on someone else's web page so it will appear on your own site, eBay auction listing, weblog, forum message post, etc.
Bandwidth refers to the amount of data transferred from a web site to a user's computer. When you view a web page, you are using that site's bandwidth to display the files. Since web hosts charge based on the amount of data transferred, bandwidth is an issue. If a site is over its monthly bandwidth, it's billed for the extra data or taken offline.
A simple analogy for bandwidth theft: Imagine a random stranger plugging into your electrical outlets, using your electricity without your consent, and you paying for it.
Hotlinking can get you in trouble quick if you are not careful. Take what just happened on the "Presidential homes" thread. The site that mrken3235 used to hotlink the photos from used the Switcheroo trick that caused everyone to see pornographic images instead of what he had intended for people to see. Yet mrken3235 only saw the images that he thought he posted.
Using hotlinks to photo hosting sites such as Photobucket is safe. For you own the photos that you have in your account.
I have saw what just happen. Happen to a few unsuspecting members on a board that I use to moderate. Saw it even happen to Moderators.
Need to give mrken3235 a chance for like I said. It can happen to anyone of us at any time if we use hotlinking.0 -

Thank you for the detailed explanation![8D]0 -
Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think this kind of problem can be avoided if you download the picture you want to post, then upload to your host, then post it as if it were your picture. Of course, you shouldn't do that with copyrighted stuff. 0 -

Evidently there is more than one building on the George Bush Ranch. Here are the two I got when I did a Google on "George Bush Ranch".0
