Obama would have paid him $4500 for that Pontiac! And it won’t be long before he’s buying guns, too!

That’s really something else. I bet he could fit a lot of guns in a big car like that!

My dad had a white ‘73 Catalina and sold it when I was 15. Man, that thing would FLY! It had a 400 V-8 in it.

Come to think of it, that’s probably why he sold it when I got my learner’s permit. LOL!

In related news Obama has announced his new “Clunkers are Caskets” program. Cost? 100 billion.

Actually, it IS a scene right out of the great 1980 Robert Zemeckis movie “Used Cars”: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0081698/

At least it wasn’t a RED car, Rudy ;-) One FUNNY movie!
