the Presidential secret service bus...
which I guess the RWers went nuts over when President Obama used it on his jobs tour....




I am claustrophobic just looking at it. Can they not have some windows with bullet-proofed glass? Uggh.

1. Passengers can see out.
Magic glass. Also, by the way, a bargain bus as VIP coaches go. Bargain bus with magic glass, magic bus with bargain glass, the Republicans would complain no matter what.

2. At some point it is going to be converted to a Republican Campaign Bus
so it will need all those fancy graphics on the side of it.

(There are two of them, one of them is going to be a Republican Presidential Campaign Bus, the other for dignitaries)

Also, I kinda thought the sides were windows, just heavily tinted. I may be wrong

3. Ahh, you might be right--heavily tinted glass...
But, yes, the RETHUGS will bitch no matter what.

4. My understanding is that the Republican candidate will get the exact same kind of bus
from the Secret Service. Maybe they should have thought about that before they started slamming the President for it.
