Happy Birthday! President George H.W. Bush buys son Neil a Chevy Volt:

Uh-oh, the right-wing wall against the
Chevrolet Volt is really starting to crumble. Following months of beating on the Volt, Fox News aired a puff piece on
how great the Volt is earlier this week. Today, we hear that
former president George H.W. Bush has purchased a Volt for his son Neil as a birthday present. As our friend Chelsea Sexton
said on Twitter, "Can't wait to see what Fox News makes of that!"
In a sense, the Bush family should be among the first to buy one of GM's plug-in hybrids, since the $7,500 federal tax credit that the car qualifies for was put into place under President George W. Bush's second term. Since President Obama has also
promised to buy a Volt when he gets out of office (after his second term, natch), that makes the Volt a vehicle that presidents from both major American parties can agree on.
