Obama: Do as I Say, Not as I Do Green Vehicle Policy … Presidential Limo & Security Vehicles Exempt

Green for thee, not for me …

Yet more hypocritical policies from President Barack Obama … Presidential limousine, security vehicles exempt from fed ‘green’ vehicle policy. Should we have expected anything less?  Barack Obama stated  last week that he would use the government’s purchasing power to promote fuel efficient cars and stating that  100% of new government vehicles would be ‘green’ by 2015. All will be “green” except Obama’s limo and a Secret Service vehicles.

Barack Obama’s presidential limousine will be exempt from his drive to make all government vehicles environmentally friendly, the Secret Service has revealed.

The president last week insisted that he would use the government’s purchasing power to promote fuel efficient cars – insisting 100 per cent of new government vehicles would be ‘green’ by 2015.

But the Secret Service said that the directive would not apply to some vehicles used for law enforcement and security including the president’s Cadillac limousine.

How typical and convenient. So this is what “Hope & Change” looks like.
