At least they walked part of the way. It'd be cool if they could ride, but we want them to be safe, also.

One of the newscasters was wondering how many miles the "Beast"--the battleship size Cadillac--gets per gallon. I was thinking--more like how many gallons per mile? And when the president travels outside of DC, they carry two of those Cadillacs in cargo planes--along with the Marine One helicopter.
