Eco-deathmobiles for thee but not for me. Again, our Overlord sets different standards for himself and the rest of the nomenklatura, while we peasants are relegated to golf carts. All his security vehicles -- the motorcade SUVs and trucks -- are also exempt from edict.

[Jack Hammer]

In the Socialist State, commissars are ALWAYS exempt from the rules governing the proles.

[FrankR]

I hereby solemly swear that I will never render aid, or even call a tow truck for any electric or hybrid government vehicle stranded beside the road with a dead battery.

It is nothing but a perk for the unions at GM in providing a market for the volt...a.k.a. obama's folly.

And you can bet the government will pay a lot more than $40k each for these toy cars.

...do as I say, not as I do...

[malia]

bu bu but NO! I’m president .........

obama replied when asked if he would be under the medical care same as everyone-

so it only stands to reason - this person, who has spent much of his time on the road or in the air with all his little friends would respond.

[knarf]

“certain specialized vehicles with law enforcement and security specifications are not subject to this directive.”

Translation;

ANY vehicle that could or would be used to track/chase or used to kill whites/Christians/conservatives/wrongside intellectuals/children that will not be conditioned ...

Are excluded from ANY restrictions.

I am SO friggin' armed and ready .. with tears that my nation has come to this.

WOLVERINES !!!

[Venturer]

This is going to cost a ton of money.

First in buying these crapmobiles, then in replacing them when they dont work, not including the man hours lost.

[bestintxas]

Dictators always exempt themselves, as the little people must bear the burden.

[HEM]

Come on guys, attack the stupid directive issued by the nObama, but there’s no way to convert the President’s ride to a green machine.

It’s a rolling fortress and it’s just not possible to throw some solar panels on top and make it zero emissions.

It’s not a “do as I say, not as I do.”
The men in charge of securing the President just are willing to mess around.
