Just shows it's all about TV Time and Money or
"Do as I say and NOT as I do"
When one is promoting "green jobs" an EV or Hybrid vehicle would have at least given the appearance of credibility.

Jesse Jackson's Rented SUV Stolen, Stripped as He Promoted Green Jobs in Detroit
That's funny, serves him right

Yet the greenie dictators want to tell us we need to drive tiny fuel efficient cars. Screw them, I'll drive what fits MY needs, like the good ol' false preacher Jackson. This is exactly like Al Gore and gang going to Copenhagen in private jets telling all of us we need to reduce our carbon footprint. Reduce yours first you scumbags!

Only the peons need to "go green". The elite can jet around, drive SUV's, have enormous homes and live high off the hog as they go around touting "go green".

Sadly, very few actually do what they say.
