I received this e-mail from a friend of mine. Very interesting, to say the least. Maybe Obama should "Go buy a hybrid van": Secret Service Buys Two New $1.1 Million Buses for a Three-Day Presidential Campaign Trip while Obama flies ahead of the buses for his campaign stops. Obama FLIES into an airport somewhere in the Midwest, hops into one of two brand new $1.1 Million buses, paid for by you and me, for a ”bus” tour around the Midwest' and, after an hour or so, gets driven back to the airport for ANOTHER FLIGHT, lands at another airport, where another $1.1 Million brand new black Canadian bus is waiting for Obama and then, repeats all that until Obama's Midwest "bus" tour is done!! These buses are Canadian-built, by the way, because Obama is SO CONCERNED about American manufacturing, creating American jobs and supporting American productivity. And don't forget... those brand new shiny black Canadian buses AREN'T DRIVEN to the location where they meet Obama. Oh, no…They are loaded up on one or more C-17s so they can be flown to the destination ahead of Obama who is flying in Air Force One. AND!.. Believe it or not…this process is REPEATED FOR EVERY CAMPAIGN STOP. During this “bus” tour, Obama will lecture the 'little people' on how they need to live within their means while hinting of possible future government cut-backs and a need to raise revenues (aka: taxes)! Remember, too, Obama’s “sage advice” to a family man to 'GO BUY A HYBRID VAN' when the man said he couldn't afford to fill up his truck'!!!!!! Obama's personal 'carbon footprint' must be as large as most cities by now. Unbelievably, ALL of this is on the taxpayers’ dime! But remember, this is NOT a campaign trip - It is a "Meet With the People" trip only! Consequently, the Democrat National Committee does NOT have to pay a cent for all of this extravagant 'campaign' spending. View attachment 523 View attachment 522
These buses will be around for Mittens and the crew if he gets elected. Just like the airplanes, helicopters, and the limos. It's part of the whole Presidential thing. I think if you did some research (and actually didn't you or someone bring this bus thing up months ago when it was new news) you'd find that the Secret Service thought that these buses were a reasonable and cheaper alternative to trying to rent and retrofit buses every time the President needed one. With all the gun nuts out there the Pres, whoever he may happen to be, needs all the protection he or she can get. Especially if he/she's Black. Oh, and do some homework on the Canadian part too. If I remember correctly much of the work was done in Alabama or somewhere similarly American Confederate as opposed to American Canadian.
(stands up, walks to sink, grabs a paper towel, turns handle on faucet, soaks the paper towel, forms it into a dripping-wet ball and throws it at wall, it sticks)...That wasn't this story...(to cat) Hey Vinnie, how are you at clinging?...
