Meet the Obamacar


Here's what we'll all be expected to drive once Barack Obama's energy policy makes prices skyrocket.

An air-powered car? It may be available sooner than you think at a price tag that will hardly be a budget buster. The vehicle may not run like a speed racer on back road highways, but developer Zero Pollution Motors is betting consumers will be willing to fork over $20,000 for a vehicle that can motor around all day on nothing but air and a splash of salad oil, alcohol or possibly a pint of gasoline...

The air car can tool along at a top speed of 35 mph for some 60 miles or so on a tank of compressed air, a sufficient distance for 80% of consumers to commute to work and back and complete daily chores.

Notice anything missing from this vehicle (besides style)? A backseat. Yep. The Obama car emphasises the single person (ok, you can have your partner with you). But no kidlets. Because in Obama's economy you can't afford them. Which is acceptable, since Obama promises to wipe away all those nasty (and popular!) hurdles to abortion. We don't need all those people, anyway.
