Schwarzenegger Continues To Promote Gas-Guzzling Dodge

At a climate change meeting in June, Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger said, “America is so addicted to oil it will take us years to wean ourselves from it, and to look for new ways to feed our addiction is not the answer.”
Well, looks like he’s found some new ways to revel in that addiction with the gas-guzzling Dodge Challenger. ‘Tis is the second time he’s been spotted cruising town in the 13mpg vehicle. This from a guy who told ABC’s George Stephanopoulous that he would consider accepting a position as Barack Obama’s Energy Czar.
Lame.

i do not think that obama could come close to ahhhnold (or mclame for that matter) i have more hope in him. look at him- he doesn’t even *eat* in excess and he eats at least some organic food, has one house, and is adopting a homeless pet.
he makes sarah palin look as bad as osama (yeah that terrorist bush never caught)
[...] a Schwarzenegger favorite, it’s not his current day-to-day vehicle of choice. That would be the 2009 Dodge Challenger Hemi — of which the Governor was spotted driving once again this past Monday. In fact, we [...]
