He was joking.


I’m certain of it. Iowahawk was joking.


CONGRESS $HOPPING CARTS

The federal government is preparing to spend millions to purchase a fleet of small electric vehicles that critics compare to golf carts.

[snip]

The NEVs, which resemble streamlined golf carts, scoot at up to 25 mph, operate on battery power and can be plugged into 110-volt outlets for charging.

[snip]

The House-passed version of the stimulus provides even more money for federal car purchases – $600 million. The pot of money also specifically includes the NEVs.

[snip]

“Americans who aren’t lucky enough to get a piece of the stimulus pie will at least be able to rest comfortably at night knowing that the guy who just fired them is gonna get a tax break on his new golf cart,” fumed one Senate GOP aide.

(H/T: Patterico)

Not so funny now, is it?

    We live on an island, top speed is 35. So if any place was ripe we are. I stood back and listened to people talk when they had one parked on the library steps. Most often heard was “coffin with wheels”. Runner up was “flat little car”.

    we won’t have to worry about safety standards. All I will need will be a few balloons in the car with me to save my life, even if I am going top speed down the road at a whopping 25 MPH. Actually, I can put a battery on my riding lawn mower, add a tarp, and I’ll be good to go.
