Obama’s limo – full of high-tech gadgetry, communications onboard, and defensive armored plating – is known as “The Beast.” It weighs 8 tons and gets all of 8 miles per gallon. Or it would get 8 miles if the driver (who reportedly makes 6 figures to drive the thing) had not put the wrong fuel into the tank. When Obama arrived in Tel Aviv on March 20, The Beast wouldn’t start.
Tweeters had fun making up new names for the temporarily useless car.
- Barky’s No Go Limo
- You Didn’t Ride That
- Not Too Big to Fail
- Low Information Rider
- Chariot of MisFire
- Empty Chair(iot)
- Karma Car
- Push My Ride
- Moves in just 16 Trillion seconds
- Chitty Chitty Bang Bang Cough Cough
- THE ECONOMY: It broke down after being fueled by SOCIALISM.
And for when it does work:
- The Barry Ferry
- My Big Fat Carbon Footprint
- Mercedes Spendz
- Wheels of my Fortune
- Sequester-Proof Joy Ride
- I Don’t Careforce One
- The Marxist Mobile
- Putin on the Ritz
I’m tempted to put this last one into the first list, but that would be RAAAACIST! so I’ll go all Affirmative Action and give it a special privilege category all its own.
- Typical Black Car
And don’t be screaming at me … Barry was the one who called his own grandmother – the woman who raised him after BOTH his birth parents abandoned him – a “typical white person”, i.e., a racist.

Teehee. I think my favorite was “you didn’t ride that,” although the last one is just delightful!
I recently discovered your blog, and I must say, how refreshing!
