Car by Congress: the 2012 Pelosi GTxi SS/RT Sport Edition

Here's a little comedy for Christmas: Someone with a decidedly right leaning sense of humor has taken a shot at the entire left-leaning side of Congress. Imagining the kind of car that would be crafted by a blue-state congressional committee, they've come up with the Congressional Motors Pelosi GTxi SS/RT Sport Edition. The wedge-shaped get-around with the Barney Frank-designed interior has a 15-point passenger harness, 45 airbags, and comes with a hockey helmet.

Says the ad, "We've subsidized the features you want and taxed away the rest. With its advanced Al Gore-designed V-3 under the hood pumping out 22.5 carbon-neutral ponies, you'll never be late for the Disco or the Day Labor Shelter. Engage the pedal drive or strap on the optional jumbo mizzenmast and the GTxi SS/Rt Sport Edition easily exceeds 2016 CAFE mileage standards. At an estimated 268 MPG, that's a savings of nearly $1800 per week in fuel costs over the 2011 Pelosi." You can read the rest of the humor by clicking the link. Thanks for the tip, Cash!

Yeah, I got the longer version of this the other day. Really amusing.
I might add, the back bumper is actually a polymer bumper sticker saying, “We're From The Nanny State and We Are Here To Help”.
Gotta keep the weight down doncha know.
