I don't think we've ever had a fatass president, with the exception of Taft.

was there something amusing in that video that i missed?

damn, that headline was a little harsh for no apparent reason. brits aren't exactly known for being slim themselves.

What do you expect when going to a country that is just a little bigger than Oregon?

doublesecretprobation: damn, that headline was a little harsh for no apparent reason. brits aren't exactly known for being slim themselves.

Ha, almost every headline involving the UK has something about bad dentistry or nanny state, and you guys get sniffy about one lardass comment.

Psh. That's nothin. Try turning a Suburban with a 20ft trailer around on a 1 1/2 lane country road with a 4 ft ditch on each side, in the snow.

meh, i'm more sniffy about being tricked into watching a fairly innocuous 3 point turn.

if i learned anything from television, it's that all fat people in britain are actually the slitheen.

The £250,000 Beast is equipped with rocket-propelled grenades, a night-vision camera and pump-action shotguns. Built from titanium, it is capapble of withstanding a chemical attack, and its 5 inch glass windows are rocket-proof.

Eh, I'm going to have to call bullshiat on that. Even the oldest RPG-7 warheads out there are rated at 260mm RHA, turning that thing into Swiss cheese. Some of the newer warheads would go through both sides of that thing and still have plenty of oomph left over.

Sounds like someone is just reading what the sales pamphlet claims.

it doesn't say it can withstand and rpg attack, just that it comes equipped with rpgs. it says it can withstand a chemical attack - i think that is a reference to it being sealed tight with an enclosed air system.

British roads aren't built for behemoth American presidential limos that are as big as Americans' asses



/ smile when you say that, mate

GAT_00: and its 5 inch glass windows are rocket-proof

yeah that's a typo. should be "5 inch glass windows that are rock-proof"

GAT_00: and its 5 inch glass windows are rocket-proof

Those are some tiny-ass windows. You'd think the president would get a better view from his ride.


/my apologies
//try the veal

I they meant Rockett-proof. They're thick enough to block out annoying drum solos.

Merkel's limousine

Why does subby hate American asses?

nekom: I don't think we've ever had a fatass president, with the exception of Taft.

Grover Cleveland was so fat that he had to use a special desk with a semicircle cut in the front.

The roads in Italy are too small to handle thier huge tour busses.
But they drive on 'em everyday.....

See Sorrento, Amalfi


Get over it, you little Island off the coast of Europe, about the size of Oregon.

PenguinTheRed: nekom: I don't think we've ever had a fatass president, with the exception of Taft.

And when he sat around the White house he really sat AROUND The Whi...

Well you know the rest.

It's those little assumptions that get you in the end

One of the few things I love about Ireland. When our former esteemed leader went for a drink in his local pub I could go right around the corner and see him sitting there in the quiet bar havining a pint with his overweight guards.
Not that I'd want to because he was a robbing bastard but still.

I want those 2 minutes back.

/ I thought the driver did fairly well considering the vehicle
// I've seen worse

They need all-wheel steering on that rig.

We can rebuild it. We have the technology.

Well, that was unremarkable.

Both the news organization and the subby can DIAF for that little bit of sensationalization of nothingness.

That limo is not equipped with RPGs or shotguns.

ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL countryside. I loved that area, but, yes, our bus hit the barricade on the side of the road at least once.

/long way down!

tricycleracer: Typically American, everything in excess

Joanna, Reading, UK

And would you believe she was just popping out to buy a loaf of bread?

You should see the hoopla when she retrieves the morning paper.

I'm pretty sure Obama's driver is an American. Lets hope he can handle roundabouts.

OK. So it's 75 inches wide, right? And it's got 5 inch thick windows?

Heck, I think the Toyota Corolla is more spacious.

Secret Service prepared for anything in Britain - except fact that British roads aren't built for behemoth American presidential limos that are as big as Americans' American's asses

FTFY

Bad_Seed: Lets hope he can handle roundabouts.

Roundabouts are special to the UK how?

I'm hoping you Rotskyed that only because of the date.

Bad_Seed: roundabouts.

[googling]

The United States has those are around court houses and monuments. They're probably not as prolific in high traffic areas as Europe I imagine tho.

Gotta have room for Pimpmaster Barry's hos and blow

DarnoKonrad: Bad_Seed: roundabouts.

There's a roundabout just outside of my workplace.

It's an industrial park. No courthouses or monuments there.

If the American translation of roundabout is rotary then we got em here mate. Linkee

Obama's driver regularly drives in DC. Anyone who has ever seen DC knows we have a LOT of traffic circles/"roundabouts".

Sod off, limeymitter, NOTHING is bigger than our asses!

Or Portofino, or Cinque Terre, or the road between Imperia and the French border.

Wolf Blitzer is a Substitute Teacher: Bad_Seed: Lets hope he can handle roundabouts.

Roundabouts aren't special. But American drivers are.

The funny thing of course is that the UK's obesity and overweight rates are only slightly lower than than US's. And I think Germany actually has higher rates than either.

WTH? It's the POTUS just park it wherever you want.

/USA USA USA

Roundabouts aren't special. But American drivers are.

Go drop a roundabout on the M5 and see how your accident rate is. That's exactly what happened in Keene.

LewDux: Merkel's limousine

I though Merkel's car looked like this.



I wonder if the President's ride has the seats that can withstand a 9-G impact like the new helicopters. My friend who is an old NASA engineer says they are really helpful when it is time to identify the bodies.

So we paid to FLY OBAMA's LIMO to the UK. WTF did that cost US taxpayers? With our Taxes going up today I'm glad to see we have plenty of $$$ to give Obama the comfort of not using a UK limo- what do the royals drive around in for protection?

Change you can count on

I tyre of British spellings.
