This is the man who has assured Obama that within 5 years we’ll have batteries for electric cars that will get hundreds of miles from every charge

How do these people, who are paid buckets of cash and showered with tax paid benefits, not own a car?

They have a limo and driver.

I bet Chu’s government issued car is most likely Limo or some GM SUV.

Stephen Chu= ChiCom eco-sabetuer. Connect the dots. Either he is loony and doing this on his own or he acts at the direction of his ChiComm masters. Yes he has visited Mainland China a few times

That’s right. All cabinet members are “entitled” to a limo/towncar and a driver.

Wastes money tries to make you & I drive Al Gore approved spam cans on wheels but cans of SPAM are more solidly built. When they aren’t doing this they are playing with themselves or trying to write new regulations that interfere with the production of energy in cooperation with the EPA.

Chui should be honest and bicycle to work like they do in China. But instead he is set up with a free Gov't limo and driver...for when he is actually in DC. Being that he is a California resident maybe he lives there and "telecommutes" to his solar energy tyrant job in DC

Same as gun grabbers Rosie O’Donnell and Mike Bloomberg hire armed bodyguards rather that carry themselves. Eco-faggot Chiu has Gov’t paid flunkies driving him around so he needs no automobile. Chiu is not taking the DC subways and buses like the peasants

And that is exactly why liberals in power don’t care about gas prices. They don’t buy gas. Some faceless little person does all of their transporting and they never touch a pump or pay for the product.

Yes, what kind of car does the energy secretary’s wife drive? And why do these government employees have drivers? IMO, the only cabinet positions that need security details and drivers, are the AG, SoS, and SoT, and SoD.
