Obama's Limo Gets Stuck in Ireland

Welcome to our world Ireland.  He high-centered America as well.
US President Barack Obama's heavily armoured Cadillac, nicknamed "The Beast", became stuck on a ramp at the US embassy in Dublin, RTE state radio reported Monday.
The first cars in the presidential motorcade emerged up the ramp from the car park beneath the complex in Ballsbridge and passed through the gates without incident, but The Beast quickly ran into trouble and got beached.
"The Beast was coming along and suddenly there was a loud kind of bang, metal-on-metal, grinding, crunching noise and the car was stuck," an RTE reporter said.
RTE said Obama and his wife Michelle stayed in the car while security officials and police officers went running over to the stranded vehicle.
