Sorry it took me so long to put this up. In case you haven’t seen it, this is the Obamas’ car getting stuck in Ireland yesterday. Your taxpayer dollars at work.

The over-armored big one called the Beast. Yes, iour tax bucks in action. I heard he also had the windows of his room in London reinforced with American bulletproof glass or something like that.
How many vehicles did he take this time?
Do you remember the restraint shown by the Brits for the Royal Wedding? Nary a motorcade, and then along come these fools with their Rock-star motorcades, retinue and staff.
Rarely does life hand me two metaphors in one. (see tomorrows cartoon)
Embarrassing.
Once again we are embarrassed by the presidents actions..
The limo is racist!
Fence turtle.
Ha! Agree with you, but we call ’em post turtles here in Texas.
So apparently it can stop any kind of bullet, but a small thing like that incline can render it useless. I guess that they better rethink the chassis….or maybe tank treads could help. Actually pretty amazing that such a small thing would have that effect. Looks like the only testing it got was on flat city streets without any impediments. Amazing oversight
Evidently all of you are unaware of the following two words “extended wheelbase”. These type of grades have to be negotiated “one wheel at a time”, as any vehicle driver worth the weight of his or her driving gloves would know. But i guess this is just another chance to lambast {44}; fret not however, you will have more mountain/molehill moments in the second term. God bless the 44th President of the United States of America.
Yessir. Noted.
So wouldn’t a good driver say “Boss, we can get into this parking lot but we won’t be able to get out because we don’t have the negotiating room for the “one wheel at a time” maneuver?
Was that a molehill? I thought it was a really old, cobbled dirveway.
Ex-limo Driver, Since you seem to be one of his supporters, would you mind telling me what it is you like about his policies. Do you like the high gas prices? Are you okay with the massive home foreclosures and unemployment? Are you okay with him going against the will of the American people to pass Obamacare? How about stirring up anarchy in the Middle East with his “Arab Spring” movement? How about him ignoring the cleansing of the Koptic Christians in Egypt? Are you okay with him standing with the terrorist group Hamas rather than with our Israeli brothers and sisters? Please tell me how you can justify the tyranny he is trying to impose on America.
Ronald Reagan wrote this quote down many years ago, and since we seem to be reliving history it is appropriate. “The greatest liar has his believers. If a lie be believed for only an hour it has done its work. Falsehood flies & truth comes limping after; so that when men come to be undeceived it is too late; the tale has had its effect.”

Do we need to have the Japanese start making these cars??
The question I have…is how did the Beast get into the Embassy compound in the first place? How many ‘routes’ in and out could that building have? And…wouldn’t the SS have scoped out the route in advance…and possibly averted the ‘bump.’
My guess…the original route was ‘tweaked’ because (ahem) an adoring throng of DOZENS had assembled…so it was photo op time???
I just don’t see the Secret Service NOT knowing this would happen.
