1. I am amazed that Hastert can fit into a car

Let alone drive one.

2. Thinking and Hastert go together like,,,

Republican and Honesty

3. It's really a non-issue

if you look at the end of the article it states that all congressional leaders are required to ride in armor plated cars.

4. That's a good point, but don't do the photo op!

Actually that makes me feel better about the photo, but I still wouldn't do a photo op if I were him.

5. Maybe we need to rethink this whole thing...

If we need to put our leaders in armored cars, maybe that is a commentary by itself.

Why do people hate us so much?

6. Well he is third in line for the presidency...

But is there a reason that armored cars can't be hybrid cars?

[ronnykmarshall]

8. I betcha Toyota could make one.

7. I totally agree.

There was also a link to an article that Nancy Pelosi wanted to use a Hyrbid. But they could not provide her w/ one that was armor plated.

It really opened my eyes as to how far she come in congress. I remember in 1987 when she was first elected in SF.
