Right, pull the other #$%^# leg. Another attempt by Ford to sabotage hybrids.


This was a joke, circulated by Ford Motor Co. President and CEO Alan 
Mulally. It was never intended to be taken seriously, but in the 
Internet age these things sometimes get out of hand. See:

Mulally's Bush tale ignites blog mania

WASHINGTON -- In the age of YouTube, the Drudge Report and the 
blogosphere, even a story told for laughs can spin out of control. . . .

Right, pull the other #$%^# leg. Another attempt by Ford to sabotage 
hybrids. Why is the CEO Alan Malally/ /so stupid? Surely the hydrogen 
fill cap is locked! Why would the hydrogen fill system have any live 
conductors in it? Bush is not that stupid. If the hydrogen cap could be 
lifted it would ( or should) clearly not match the plug. Mulally is only 
showing his bias against and ignorance of both Hybrids and George W Bush.
