Obama's limo to NATO summit?

http://news.yahoo.com/s/afp/20101119/pl_afp/natosu...

How is this news? It's a politically biased article. Do you really think Obama has control over how he is transported as an ambassador of the US? Why would the president be transported in a fuel-efficient car without armor or sufficient horsepower?

    Personally, I don't care how fuel efficient the President's car is. It's one car, and it protects the most powerful man in the United States, I think the world can deal with it (And I'm a strong conservative).

    "The Portuguese hosts of Friday's NATO summit hoped to use the event to promote clean-energy and electric cars, but all eyes were on US President Barack Obama's diesel-guzzling "Beast" instead."

    The first sentence answers your question. THAT'S why it's news. It's not a big deal, but certainly noteworthy. It was presented in an objective non-biased way. I don't know why you're making hay of it.

    Oddly, I think it's the fever swamp treehuggers who are upset. Personally, as a conservative, I think the President should have the limo.

    Who cares, I'm just suprised the Right didn't declare this another vacation that cost tax payers $200 million a day, or wait.....up to $500 million a day lol.

    Since Obama himself says the U.S. is "just another country" there is no non-hypocrite-pile-of-sh!t way for him to use the limo in an event where other World leaders were not.
