Got to love this article. The federal govt. bought so many new limos in the last 2 years, they have NO CLUE whatsoever how many they currently own: Limousine Liberals? Number of Government-Owned Limos Has Soared Under Obama http://www.huffingtonpost.com/the-center-for-public-integrity/limousine-liberals-number_b_868922.html
It's better to rent than to own. That way stupid articles won't get published about how many limousines are owned by the Federal governemnt and used in the hundreds of US embassies and consulates around the world.
And you don't even want to know how many airplanes the govt. owns. The DEA alone owns over 100 jets.
"The Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) Aviation Division’s mission is to provide aviation support to operational and intelligence elements within DEA and the law enforcement community to detect, locate, identify, and assess illicit narcotics-related trafficking activities. Today, the Aviation Division consists of approximately 125 Special Agent/Pilots and nearly 100 aircraft."

The gov't should lease it's limos so it could take the depreciation allowance.

I have a batter idea: It's called the DC Metro. Govt. officials that NOBODY has ever heard of (think under secretaries and deputy secretaries) don't need an armored Cadillac.
Yeah, and US diplomats in Caracas should take the metro too.
