For President Of What-- Mars?
Neil Boortz points out the following website, obviously put up by a person in a pitiable state of mental defectiveness, that proposes to launch that most long-awaited of noble causes--the presidential candidacy of Sheila Jackson Lee.
This is either amusing or terrifying, depending on how seriously you take it.
Hmmm...If she needs a limo for a trip of a block and a half, I wonder if she'd use Air Force One to go from the White House to the Congress for the SOTU...

Reader John McGuinness points out:
According the article it's a Ford Contour, which Ford no longer makes, so it's obviously a year or two old. And, to paraphrase My Cousin Vinny, a Contour could never be confused with a limousine.
Well, I was just going on the reporting. Regardless of the type of vehicle, even to require a bicycle to get a block and a half indicates a sense of entitlement that's beyond my comprehension. Perhaps a sedan chair would be the most appropriate.
