Iowahawk has crowned the new champion:
I realize this choice is not without controversy, and that some Earth Day Cruisers may be grumbling about the contest being rigged. But before you send those “I wuz robbed” complaint emails, ask yourself this: did you fly a private 747 round trip to Chicago to deliver a 600 word, 20 minute speech touting….
[wait for it]
It was no contest, really. Our monster trucks never stood a chance.
When Obama takes a trip on Air Force One, at least one other plane (a C-5 or C-17) is used to carry the presidential limo or helicopter. Then there’s the Secret Service advance team that goes to the destination a day or two before to set up security. I don’t know if they fly commercial or use one of the Air Force’s many VIP planes, but they don’t walk. When you add it all up, that trip to Chicago probably cost close to a million dollars and burned many thousand gallons of jet fuel.
Yeah, but just think how much worse the impact would have been if Bush was still President?
Yep. In order to put off the heat death of the universe, somebody should tie up Obama and throw him in some WH closet until his term is over.
