President Barack Obama's limo; the sleek, armored car has fascinated Portuguese media, which dubbed it "Cadillac One."

If Americans aren't exceptional.

How come Obama gets an “exceptional” vehicle.

More hypocrisy.

Remember U.K. Prime Minister Cameron flew over to the U.S. last summer on a British Airways commercial jet.

World leaders attending the NATO summit in Lisbon, Portugal, zipped around in zero-emission remote-emission electric vehicles.

Fixed it.

Can an electric car do what is needed in providing security for the POTUS?

What infuriates me is that we can’t get more diesel-fueled cars in America. A diesel-fueled hybrid would make sense too.

I bet it could. All you need is a dozen decoys with tinted windows.

You can be sure it never would be a Ford Built Lincoln limo under this administration.

His foremost loyalty is to his Statist Possessions....not American Enterprise.

It is a car befitting a President. I have no objection to the car, and no sympathy for the international whiners.

If only we had a President befitting the car ...

Drove the new BMW 535D diesel - loaner car while my Bimmer was being fixed.

It was awesome - quick, quiet and it pulls stumps.

It’s okay. Obummer had the fed print up a few extra dollars which were sent to Al Gore to purchase carbon indulgences.

Portugal claims to derive 45 percent of its electricity consumption from "clean" energies...

I have nothing against Portugal. But I wonder where they got that number?

According to this link:

Electricity - production by source: fossil fuel: 64.5%
hydro: 31.3%
nuclear: 0%
other: 4.1% (2001)

Source: CIA World Factbook - Unless otherwise noted, information in this page is accurate as of November 3, 2010

When the President of the United States goes overseas he represents the US - plus he’s a much bigger target for terrorists then those Euro-weenies.

But as Snake Doc said - Just wish we had a better President to ride in it.

Don't you need low gear for that?

Obama the Islamo-Marxist-Chicago Gangster is a hypocrite and liar in chief.

Leftists never see themselves or their leaders as hypocrites because they fully believe that laws about consumption are for everyone else. This goes along with their belief that THEY are the ruling class and will be holding the whip instead of under its lash. Every one of them believes this.

When we get rid of Obama (if we get rid of Obama), he will go down in history as the biggest joke of the millennium.

He is the final stage in the evolution of the African American pimp/con man...and he took it all the way to the top with NOTHING but smooth talk.
