[Hillary's Lovely Legs]

Clotworthy: "This simple, straightforward, unpretentious and isolated house reflects its owner's desire to 'get away from it all.' It is a place to refresh body, mind, and spirit by indulging in hard physical labor, a life philosophy reminiscent of his political hero, Ronald Reagan."

Hey, I like Sharpton's house...

[Neanderthal]

I really dig Kucinich's.

[billorites]

[Sir Gawain]

Sharpton's got taste. Bush's ranch house is nice too.

[mountaineer]

Edwards and Kerry both have several more houses, including multi-million dollar beach homes - I hope we can get the whole story on all of them.

[IncPen]

Kucinich's house looks like the house I would hav expected.

Maybe even a little upscale for him.

[Terry Mross]

Something's wrong when a so called preacher has a million dollar house but no church.

[Miss Marple]

Hey, thanks, Hill! Yours is the first complete picture of President Bush's house in Crawford that I have seen.

[Hillary's Lovely Legs]

Why is Sharpton's house WHITE with so little BLACK?

[mountaineer]

U.S. Sen. John Edwards, an N.C. Democrat and presidential candidate, paid $11,000 in Washington, D.C., property taxes Thursday -- four months late and after inquiries from a newspaper.

Edwards, a multimillionaire former trial lawyer, and his wife, Elizabeth, also have been tardy paying property taxes on their house and cars in Raleigh more than 30 times over the past decade, including eight times in which they had to pay interest.

He also has paid two late bills and interest since 1989 on his property and house on Figure Eight Island, an exclusive, private island off of Wrightsville Beach.

In the case of the Washington house, the Edwardses bought a four-story home in the Georgetown area of Washington last year for nearly $4 million and planned to renovate it. Recently they said they plan to stay in the house they're renting in northwest Washington and are considering selling the Georgetown house. The $11,092 tax bill on it was due March 31 but wasn't paid until a Washington Times reporter asked about it earlier this week. full story

There are two Americas, all right, John, but I bet the other one doesn't get to stay in your neighborhood.

[Aggie Mama]

Really interesting!

Thread from 2002 on Edwards' D.C. houses, Senator (John Edwards) contracts to buy $3.8 million mansion

[WhiteGuy]

Wasn't GHW bush's home in TX a hotel room?

(residency for tax purposes)

just wondering

[mountaineer]

While he was a member of Congress' investigation into U.S. and Saudi intelligence failures, presidential hopeful John Edwards agreed to sell a Washington home for $3.52 million to the public relations expert hired by Saudi Arabia to counter charges it was soft on terrorism.

.... "We've had people driving by all day long," said Linda Thomas, referring to the tiny pink house next door where Sen. John Edwards, the North Carolina Democrat running for president, lived as an infant.

Though Mr. Edwards routinely mentions the modest three-room rental as his first home, his family didn't live there very long. Soon after he was born, the Edwardses moved into a larger house they built on the other side of town.

"I don't guess he spent his first birthday there," said Mrs. Thomas, whose husband, Broadus, has lived in the house next door since 1939.

The house the Edwardses moved into does not appear in campaign ads, and residents of the middle-class Seneca neighborhood aren't even sure exactly which house it is. ... full story

[Dead Dog]

I agree, Sharpton has good taste for a race baiting poverty pimp.

[truth_seeker]

"Wasn't GHW bush's home in TX a hotel room?"

That was his Daddy, for a spell.

[expatpat]

Yes, Sharpton's is very attractive.

[SuziQ]

Wasn't GHW bush's home in TX a hotel room?

I believe #41 and Bar lived in a hotel suite while waiting for construction of their home in Texas to be completed

[anniegetyourgun]

I like the Edwards house in Raleigh the best. The one on Pennsylvania Ave. is nice, but I hear that it will age the resident real fast.

[diotima]

Can't find the fire hydrant in front of Kerry's brownstone...LOL.

[SamAdams76]

Kucinich's house looks a lot like my starter house.

[Howlin]

[onyx]

Just your everyday beach house on a private island. A real man of the "people."

[oldironsides]

Kerry has a homes on Nantucket or the Vineyard, a yacht, a home in Boston, Pennsylvania and DC. Environmentalists dream. 4 homes to cool and heat? The working mans candidate? Blue blood elitist with a union following. Go figure.

[WKB]

This looks a lot like my maid's house out back.

[Fintan]

Kinda looks like the house where I lost my virginity.

P.S. The article's great...I need more.

[daisyscarlett]

Bill and Hillary sure did like living in the WH; so much so that they often spent Christmas there...'course they did not have another home, and Hillary is anxious to get back there-at least she had clean hair when she lived there due to the WH Beauty Salon, lol. And brother Hughie liked it so well, he asked the Bushes if he could stay on for a couple of weeks. His request was denied, hee hee. They (the Clintons) had him stowed in the third floor of the WH where it is said he consumed whole chickens...Chels did not like living in the WH...she called it a big white prison.

[Ditter]

President GWH Bush did stay at the Houstonion, while he was president. He owned a townhouse sized lot in a very nice neighborhood nearby, After he left Washington, he built a house on the lot that he had owned for a long time.

[WKB]

So it's true to get a reply from you I have to
say something you disagree with,
Well let me think now...................
I'll get back with you on this.:>)

[SpinyNorman]

Maybe, if he is lucky, and the lights are out, (and the woman is drunk) Kucinich will be able to claim the same thing!!

[dead]

Sharpton's house is really beautiful. I wonder how he affords it, not having a job for the last twenty years or so?
