President Barack Obama's limo is known as "The Beast" but his new bus is even more of a monster. The US leader swept onto the campaign trail Monday with a sleek and even sinister looking set of wheels with blacked out windows worth $1.1 million (£675,000). The shiny, black armoured bus, bristling with secret communications technology, with flashing police-style red and blue lights on the front and the back, made its debut on Mr Obama's three-day tour of Minnesota, Iowa and Illinois.
Comments: Scary looking it is. Actually, it could make a good visual for Republicans to use in campaign ads--this huge sinister-looking monster, looming over the land, "bristling with secret communications technology"--a metaphor for the Dems. As others have said, it looks like Darth Vader transformed into a bus.

If this doesn't show Obama's disregard for taxpayer money,nothing does. What the heck is the symbolism of the bus vs. a regular way of traveling?
Obama said yesterday that he doesn't mind the term "obamacare" because it says Obama cares.Yeah he cares about buying more votes with government handouts.
