President Obamas three-day bus tour of the Midwestern heartland already has earned a nickname. Its Greyhound One according to observant wags at Lucianne.com and elsewhere in the conservative blogosphere. Most are irked that Mr. Obama and his strategists have borrowed a page from the tea party playbook. Whats better than a campaign-style bus tour to impart a message of frugality and kitchen-table economics?
But wait. Though the excursion is packaged with humble appeal, it looks like nobodys sleeping on the bus. The White House has reserved the entire historic Hotel Winneshiek in Decorah, Iowa, and 60 rooms at nearby Luther College, and thats just one stop on the tour.

well, a bus entourage of thousands is certain to impress the peasants with Barry’s humility and native son, down-to-earth approachability
especially when each stop features exhortations for democrat tax-and-spend snake oil to drive out the tea party hobbit terrorist extremist bomb throwers

I expect a staged incident...someone throws an egg or a rock at the bus, something to that effect. Obie’s mediawhores immediately blame the tea party, the usual hysterics follow 24/7 for weeks....

With so many people under the Obama bus I am surprised the wheels even touch the ground.
