I’d laugh if it wasn’t our money that was being shoveled out the door on this insanity.

The one commercial that really is funny about this guy fueling his car and looks across the street to this other guy unplugging his car from some street charger. Like that’s going to happen. Nice pristine city street, no littler, eat of the sidewalk kind of place. Unplugs his Leaf (I think) and drives off. No other cars waiting in line to hook up (for who knows how long to re-charge) and no meter. Nothing visual where you’d drop a twenty in some money reader to charge.

Sure is! I'm surprised they named their car the ‘Karma’ instead of the ‘algore’, but then, Gore should be very familiar with karma.

This is more than a hose clamp problem, though that is lousy design of itself. A battery ought not to catch fire just because it got doused with antifreeze or anything else likely to be found under the hood of a car.

Terry McAuliffe (head of the Democratic party under Clinton) is a CEO of one of these car companies sucking money from the Treasury. I went to its website a while ago and it showed Cadillac size cars getting 80 miles to a gallon. Old Terry is probably just rolling in Department of Energy money.

How many are being recalled, ten, twenty?

I can see parking meters on city streets becoming charging stations. Just insert a $20 bill and go shopping for 4 hours. If you overrun the $20, the meter shuts off and the meter maid puts a boot on your vehicle. Then the city council will make the meter/chraging station parking spots off limits to real vehicles. Maybe I can get $500 Mil from Obama to develop the parking meters... Oops, now the secret is out.
