Barack Obama's Limo is TOO sick...
 
Check it...

I love this cutaway illustration of the new Cadillac One by John Lawson, Obama included. Specially things like "Doors: eight-inch thick and the weight of a 757 door". Other highlights:

• It can withstand rocket impacts and it's perfectly sealed against biochemical attacks.
• Petrol tank: Can withstand a direct hit thanks to a special foam and armor-plating.
• Bodywork: made of dual hardness steel, aluminum, titanium, and ceramics to "break up posible projectiles".
• Tyres: Kevlar-reinforced with steel rims underneath so it can run away no matter what.
• Accessories include: Night vision cameras, pump-action shotguns, tear gas cannons.
• Comes with bottles of blood compatible with the President's blood.

I'm not a doctor but doesn't a doctor need to perform a blood transfusion? Or does he need just stab himself with an IV??

well, I guess it works as a "don't even think about it" warning, plus I have a feeling they may have a few aces up their sleeves...and/or they're providing slightly false info to mislead potential bad guys :D

I guess this is a good thing, and a warning to anyone who'd think of trying to assassinate him.

not really since you get what you pay for.. not like a ferrari where its a HUGE markup of what it actually costs to make

johny 01-20-2009 09:22 PM
probably got it free from GM in exchange for a 30 billion bail out.

like citi bank donating 8 mill to the party today.. after getting 100's of millions in bail out money....

all politics is a scandal.

he has a doctor with him 24/7.

"The doctor is always within a few feet away, so you essentially shadow the president," says Dr. E. Connie Mariano, a White House physician from 1992 to 200

A retired cop told me when he did detail for prime minister Trudeau they kept a couple of pints of his blood near him.
