Good Gawd, get over it already. And if you feel you just
HAVE to post idiocy like this, at least find a relevant newsgroup
to do it in. Rec.motorcycles isn't it, IMHO. None of the others in your
list look like they'd be particularly interested either, but that's their
problem.


Better yet, drop $10K for a starter bike and some riding gear, plus a gift
certificate for an MSF course, and have it delivered to the white house.

Get the new president riding a motorcycle.

Can you get Hayabusa with bling and a stretched swingarm for $10K?

No, but you can get a Honda Shadow 750 or a V-Strom 650.

Obama is not a true youngster. He was born in '61. He doesn't heal fast
enough to rate the ride you have suggested.

It's not for riding, it's for posing in da 'hood. Of course his other
bike would be a Harley Davidson.

Er, having just been elected President of the United States, I sort of
doubt that Obama feels any need to "pose" for *anyone*.

However, his street cred in da 'hood was probably pretty good anyway
after he sank those three point shots while playing basketball in Iraq.

Yeah, but his alley cred was shot all to hell trying to bowl with the
rednecks.

Yeah but first I've got to get drunk enough to steal it. The only
thing uglier is the hate from the OP. That and I'd need a seriously,
outrageously gooed BJ from Jeanna Jameson as a bribe.

You know, I never thought of that. A couple of our ex-presidents would run
a few miles a day ... I'm guessing this ended up with at least 10 people in
running gear packing serious heat accompanying the president.

I can't imagine the logistical complexity of allowing Mr. Obama to ride on
the open road.

The photo ops would be interesting. Here is the president visiting the D.C.
Hell's Angels chapter ... Here is the presdent adjusting his chain ... Here
is the Secret Service brutalizing the motorist that turned left in front of
the president and almost caused an accident.

And what would the tabloids call the motorcycle. "Scooter One"?

He could never ride a Harley since it would seem undignified to be on
"Hog 1".

Assuming he'd want to try, I envision something like
the President on the bike of his choice, surrounded
by large, bulletproof SUVs being VERY carefully
driven by trained agents.

Not exactly my idea of a fun ride.

If I were President, I think I would have to be satisfied
with being able to fly around in a really cool jet...

Oh come on Bob. If it were you or I they'd never keep up, duh. That
would be priceless, Secret Service pulling up (finally) whilst a Md
Highway patrolman has you pulled over for 10 over. lol that would be
priceless.

You're right about that. I do realize that I have about
as much chance of actually BEING in that situation as I
have of, say, dancing the lead in Swan Lake (I apologize
for that mental image), but it would be absolutely priceless.

Couldn't have a bike with anything "Presidential" on
it, of course; just needs to be a garden-variety, capable
of going toodamnfast motor-sickle. Pretty ordinary
outfit, too, with a full-face helmet and tinted shield.
Then ya pull off the helmet and reveal the Presidential
Mug just as the Secret Services catches up...yeah,
that would be the best moment of the whole damn
presidency.

Would have to offer to pick up the cleaning tab for
the patrolman's uniform, though, and those brown
stains are durned hard to get out. But it would be
the polite thing to do, ya know?

I had a moment almost that good a few years ago when a grumpy CHP
pulled me over for doing 4 MPH over the limit on a twisty mountain
highway. (In all honesty he'd have got me for 20 or more over except
that I was stuck behind a slow SUV. Who he *didn't* pull over.)

Before I could get my helmet off he was talking along the lines of
"you kids who come up here and think you can get away with anything",
but he dribbled to a slow halt when I pulled off my helmet and he got
a look at my gray hair and lined face...

I handed him my license, and said, "HI! My name's Pete Roehling. I'm
60 years old and I'm an instructor for the Motorcycle Safety
Institute." He handed the license back to me, said "I'm not going to
give you a ticket today", and walked back to his patrol car.

Just to be on the safe side, I didn't laugh until he drove away.

They'd love it.... for one thing, they'd all have to get US government
issue Harleys to keep up.

When was the last time we had anyone who rode a motorcycle in the white
house? Nixon's daughter?

Well, you know what they say... for every pound of equipment the government
buys there are two pounds of paperwork that have to get filled out.

Hmm.... I'm reading this in rec.audio.pro and it seems like we are being
invaded by crossposts from rec.motorcycles... but not one of them has a
DoD number in the .signature. Is that passe these days?

He's still pretty good for an old dude at hoops and that makes him a-okay in
my mind.
