The President drives …

February 20, 2012

President’s Day is a day for sober reflection, a day to appreciate those men who have shaped this fine country we live in. Now, THAT is THE reason for today! No doubt about it! But on a lighter note, many use this holiday as an excuse to splurge on great finds and great deals on flat screens, clothes, even cars.

This morning General Motors posted a ‘lil blurb on “what our founding fathers drive,” and I thought it’d be fun to dive into the lives of politicians and their vehicle of choice!

Sarah Palin :  Dodge Viper

Cruising in her Dodge Viper!

President Obama : Ford Escape Hybrid 

Go Green with Hybrid!

Mit Romney :  Chevy 2500

Sportin’ the pick up!

Senator Scott Brown : GMC Canyon

Haulin’ his GMC !

Arnold Schwarzenegger : Bentley 

Stylin’ in his Bentley!
 
George W Bush : Ford F250

Keepin' it real in Texas !

The presidential state car is the official state car used  by the President of the United States. And that car is …
the GMC Topkick-based, Cadillac-badged limousine (often referred to as Cadillac One or The Beast)!

THE BEAST!

Day of LOVE


  He loves me. He loves me not. He loves me. One day out of 365! One day on which couples express their love for each other. One day for an excessive amount of greeting cards sold.
