Green is the new red - BLOOD RED!

FUBO

“recently reported that the Pentagon is buying Chevy Volts in a 1,500 electric-vehicle purchase, as part of the Defense Department's “green initiatives,”

This nonsense NEEDS TO STOP. Here is another (unfortunately small) issue that should be used in a political campaign as an example of an OUT OF CONTROL government.

This would be a perfect debate topic to shove at Obama tonight.

[Army Air Corps]

Ping.

[Responsibility2nd]

Wow. The answer was so obvious. How did we ever miss it? If only they had sent Chevy Volts to Benghazi.

None of the looting, raping and murders would have happened.

[subterfuge]

Local, state and federal government has been so out of control for so long the people in charge don’t have a shred of guilt about throwing taxpayer money down a rat hole. In fact, they are proud of it and flaunt it!

And exactly where do the battery components come from? Could it be China?

[Ernest_at_the_Beach]

So should money go to Security or environmental idealism?

[WellyP]

Most of the world uses 230/440 Volts (two wire) 50 Hertz. American, Canada, Mexico, Venezuela, Trinidad and some of the countries in the America’s uses 240 Volt (three wire) 60 Hertz. 110/220/60 is not compatable with 230/50!

Do you think this “Goobermint” is smart enough to understand that?

[nascarnation]

They sell the Volt as the Ampera in Europe.
Aren’t they wired for compatibility with the local juice?

[listenhillary]

With the weight of the battery pack, they won’t fly as high when they are blown up by roadside bombs.

I doubt that it will affect the survival rate of the occupants.

[GeronL]

10 hours to charge a volt??

That is insane

[WellyP]

That should have read 230/380/50. I think our “Goobermint” is required to purchase US made cars. Is the Ampera made here and shipped overseas?

[Nachum]

The list, Ping

Let me know if you would like to be on or off the ping list

[Hillarys Gate Cult]

They do it to cause scenes like this;

Jihadi Putz #1: “Achmed, great job on setting that American car on fire. Show those imperialist dogs we mean business.”

Jihadi Putz #2: “But I didn't. It's a Chevy Volt and they do it on their own.”

JP #1 “Those bstards.”

[dead]

Green embassies!

GDamnIt - these SOBs have to go!!

[Marine_Uncle]

And GM will most likely never pay back the bulk of money given them. One travesty after another unfolds within this administration.

[AliVeritas]

I second that.

[Ernest_at_the_Beach]

LOL!

[Ernest_at_the_Beach]

I would like to see Romney do that.
