Bush murdered 3,000 Americans on 9/11/01. Started two wars of

And it is going to cost you 24 MILLION a year to keep him for life !!!

Secret Service: Retired Bush will be 'high value terrorist target'
CNN reported Thursday that the Secret Service expects President Bush
to be "a high value terrorist target after he leaves office." They
then showed the Secret Service practicing to deal with everything from
James Bond-style stealth weapons to roadside IED's in order to meet
that challenge.
Retired agent Terry Samway told CNN, "We have the mandate to make sure
that whatever they did during their presidency, they are still safe
from any of those lingering issues after their presidency."
Even before 9/11, the cost of protection for former presidents was
estimated as $24 million a year, and Bush will be guarded by an
unprecedented 103 full-time agents starting in January 2009. However,
a 1997 law limits the duration of Secret Service protection for former
presidents to just 10 years.
"But before they can protect a president or former president,"
concluded CNN, "the new recruits are drilled in the basics, including
target practice at 100 yards and then a sprint to load and fire again
-- this time much more up close and personal."
The following video is from CNN's News Room, broadcast on June 21.

Bush has Doubled Admin's Secret Service Protection; Readies 103
Full-Time Agents for his Retirement. Soldiers still Lack Armor
Submitted by BuzzFlash on Tue, 05/29/2007 - 2:10pm. Analysis
A BUZZFLASH NEWS ANALYSIS
The 2008 campaign will require more Secret Service resources than
expected, the Washington Post reported Tuesday. The article also
brings up some interesting highlights on Secret Service coverage for
the Bush administration:
[T]he Bush administration has doubled the number of officials granted
Secret Service protection, from 26 to 54, including top White House
aides such as the chief of staff and national and homeland security
advisers.
Guess the paranoia is justified considering their abysmal approval
ratings. We always thought it was just a coincidence that Cheney never
leaves his undisclosed location during full moons.
And while the 2008 campaign gets going, the service is also gearing up
for January 2009, when President Bush is set to leave office ... The
service has begun training agents to fill 103 full-time slots as to be
part of the current president's retirement detail.
103 personal, full-time Secret Service agents after he's retired? Bush
must not be planning on making any more friends over the next year and
a half.
And to think that these are the same folks who didn't want Speaker
Pelosi ? second in line to the presidency ? to have a military plane
for official travel (much less a fighter jet to land on an aircraft
carrier for a photo op).
If you think it's crazy for the taxpayers to spend millions protecting
a man who single-handedly pissed off the world, the American people,
and even most of his own party, there is still hope: impeachment and
conviction will prevent Bush from receiving the standard protection,
office staff, and cushy pension afforded to retired presidents.
In fact, Republican Sen. Arlen Specter proposed doing just that to
Bill Clinton? even after he had already left office! Booting our lame
duck president now would not only spare the nation months of more
torment but would also save us big bucks in his upkeep.
A 1997 law made Clinton the last former president to get lifetime
Secret Service coverage, meaning Bush will only get a decade of
official protection. After that, well, we guess it's up to Blackwater.
