“The President of the United States doesn’t have to get into a vehicle we have,” he said. “I mean, he could say, ‘I want to drive in a convertible.’ But we have to make recommendations based on our intelligence, our information and our experience. And that’s what we go with.”

Did Williams really think about that remark before he said it??

So this guy makes his living leasing buses every four years? Wow, what a job! I’d like to have that gig. Oh, and the buses that Obama bought with taxpayers money were bought from Canada. They were outfitted in the US.

It kept Obama from having to lease a bus. He got the use of it for free.

He claims it wasn’t a Campaign tour.
Probably one of the biggest lies of the year.

This was just another example of wasted money,in a time when we don’t have money to waste.

“We’re not trying to hurt anybody’s business,” Donovan responded.

No, the government just blundered around, like elephants at a day-care center, and Mr. Williams just happened to get crushed.

“The government went into competition with me,” Williams lamented to The Daily Caller. “Something is not right, or fair about this.”

Quick question for him, did he vote for Obama?

Obama also ‘saved or created’ a job in Canada with the purchase of those two busses.
Note, no job in AMERICA was stimulated by Obama’s actions in this.

This is one case where there’s nothing to complain about.

When the SS rented buses, they would rent the bus, modify it for better security, unmodify it at the end of the campaign, and then turn it back over to the rental company.

Buying the buses saves vast amounts of money over time.

Watergate is just so 20th century. Why not make the opposition candidate and close staff travel on a properly monitored vehicle?

ML/NJ

So if the government buys a couple of buses rather than lease them from this guy, that’s “unfair?”

Sorry, I just don’t buy it.
