The Inauguration: Brought to You By Cadillac

Yesterday, on the Today Show, as the first shots of W's motorcade came through, Matt Lauer paused during his voice-over to plug the new uber-Cadillac the President was riding in. I'm trying to track down the transcript but he said something like: "And GM wouldn't want us to go any further without mentioning the new Cadillac the President is riding in." It seemed creapily like a product placement ad for the new Cadillac model due out in ... who cares when?

Pimp My Ride:
MSNBC has article about it here. The quote from GM Chairman and Chief Executive Rick Wagoner is great: "General Motors and Cadillac are proud to write this latest chapter in American automotive history."
To really show your partrotism, you can purchase a highly detailed replica of the vehicle here. It comes complete with real carpeting in the trunk and is on sale from an original $39.99 way down to $34.99. Get two.
