Ask why these Greenie idjits won't allow the sale of diesels in the SUVs? Outside North America, you can get Jeeps and such with fuel efficient diesels. It is the evirowackos themselves, who have prevented the sale of more fuel efficient SUVs which are available today. BTW, a number of small SUVs get very good mileage.

Now she's an expert on the market niche for petroleum products.

Hello Arianna! Plastics and cosmetics are made from petroleum. Does this mean you will stop buying sandwich baggies and mascara? I think not.

Arianna is a stupid woman who married a homosexual for his money. 'Nuff said!

The fundamental problem with large-engine vehicles is that engines operate efficiently only when producing maximum power for their revolution rate. If the vehicle doesn't need as much power as the engine can produce, it's necessary to throttle down the engine; this reduces the output power substantially more than it reduces fuel consumption, thus reducing fuel efficiency.

I've read of some proposals to implement variable-displacement engines which should mitigate this factor. Do you think any of those have any promise?

I knew this was coming after seeing last year's Superbowl commercials. Surprised it took almost a year to show up.

More laughs from the Looney Left.

She also seemed to be fond of that schmuck on that politically correct, Politically Incorrect show.

"But some local affiliates say they will not run them. At the ABC affiliate in New York, Art Moore, director of programming, said, "There were a lot of statements being made that were not backed up, and they're talking about hot-button issues.""

How much do you want to bet these stations have no problem running the Marijuana == Terror ads?

I'm waiting for the time when SUV owners start getting picked off by whacked out enviro spacecadets.

[aynrandfreak]

Are we supposed to stop trading goods & services because terrorists use goods & services? If Arianna really wanted us to stop supporting terrorists, she'd be condemning eco-terrorists that destroy SUVs.

[A CA Guy]

I guess this could be so if the owners were Libertarians doing their illegal stash in the name of the Constitution of course! LOL

[sheik yerbouty]

I could see how living with her drove her former husband to be gay.

[Bullish]

Sheesh! And to think I used to think Arriana was fairly conservative. She got snatched by the pod people.

One things for sure. Her limosenes and her yacth are exempt from criticism.

[goldstategop]

Ariana Huffington's new commercials will actually end up boosting SUV sales. Detroit should be grateful she's helping to make America's most popular car even more popular. Stupid as stupid does liberals like Huffington end defeating their own goals.

Bigger contributors included Steve Bing, the film producer;

Hey, Steve Bing, what kind of car do you drive? I'll bet it's a big Porsche or Ferrari or Lamborghini that uses as much (or more) gas as an SUV...How about your family? I doubt very much they're tooling around in little VWs. How about Liz Hurley, your ex girl friend and your little baby?

You morons. I'm so sick of the lot of you. Larry David, dry up. Lear, jump in the lake, or maybe just in the pool that goes with your 60,000 sq ft house. And for some reason I picture Arianna being driven around town in a big limo.

We'll decide what vehicles we want to drive--and we don't need any help from the Hollyweird limousine liberal set.

[aynrandfreak]

I hate Diane Feinstein, but I call it another "blessing" of the 94 election that those two weirdos weren't sent to the Senate that year.

Hmmm, my autonomy vs. the alleged fact that I buy terror oil... Nope, I buy Marathon gas that is not made of terror oil. Cant the greenies provide this alternative? No, lies about me and SUV owners as usual.
