FREE REPUBLIC EXCLUSIVE: Arianna Huffington's Gas Guzzling Suburban at Sierra Club Summit

DFU on the scene | 9-12-05 | dfu

Arianna: How nice it must feel for SUV owners, knowing that their swaggering imprudence is helping the world's anti-democratic oil sheiks sleep just a little better at night. Call this camp the Bigger Is Better crowd. Their motto: "Burn, baby, burn ... 30 percent more carbon monoxide and hydrocarbons and 75 percent more nitrogen oxides than passenger cars."

Hey, *itch, MIND YOUR OWN DAMN BUSINESS! Either give up YOUR GAS GUZZLING CHAUFFEUR DRIVEN SUV OR SHUT THE HELL UP!!!

Oh, man, I hope this makes it to the mainstream media big time. I already called the Sierra Club to complain about her and tell them it is hurting the message.

[kcvl]

I have sent it to everyone that I can think of. Thanks for the photo & report!

[doug from upland]

Thanks for sending it along. If Hannity gets it, he will enjoy sticking it to Arianna.

How about starting a diesel in cold weather; is this still a problem ?

Have they given up on turbine engines ? They burn anything: gas, oil, alcohol, wine, Jack Daniels etc.

(Huffington) is the one who's been saying driving big SUV's is supporting the terrorists."

You never know. Arianna might support the terrorists. Her pronouncements on foreign policy could certainly have been written by Al Jezeera...

I remember (Rosie) saying something to the effect that all guns should be outlawed.

I think she said she wished she had a "giant magnet" that would go over the country and suck up all the guns. Maybe it could be mounted on Screwy Louie Fahrakkan's Giant Space Wheel...

kudos to doug from upland, unless he'd prefer a candy bar to one of those granola things.

[Undertow]

"gas-guzzling, pollution-spewing, downright dangerous behemoth"

Very accurate description of Arianna.

Oh, you meant the car...

[Coleus]

sunken civ, thanks for the ping. Glad the hypocrite fool was outed.

[Coleus]

Good job...and thanks for attending and posting...

It always pays to bring cameras, tape recorders or cam corders to these meetings. You never know what will happen at a meeting, rally or freep.

[nutmeg]

ping!

Thanks for the ping, doug from upland and Coleus.

Please FReepmail me if you want on or off my ‘miscellaneous’ ping list.

[doug from upland]

Email with photo sent to Sean Hannity's producer. I hope Sean will discuss it. Also, the SF Chronicle returned my call and may do the story.

[doug from upland]

I just told the story to Al Rantel and Carl Limbacher on Al's show on KABC in Los Angeles. It has been sent to Carl. Let's see this photo on the NewsMax site. Arianna, you've been busted.

[KevinDavis]

I'm with you on the nuclear power and fuel cells. That is the best way to go..

[SunkenCiv]

"the SF Chronicle"

nice of them to agree to maybe do the story, since the event and the hypocrisy took place IN San Francisco. Wouldn't want them to strain themselves with heavy lifting. ;') Well done, all the way around, DfU.

[doug from upland]

I got through to Hannity's show. The producer would not put me on the air --- "just send it to him by email." Way to go, Sean. You need to fire her.

[doug from upland]

I got through again, this time to talk about Gore blaming Bush for Katrina. Nope, send it to Hannity. Click.

[CounterCounterCulture]

Great job, Doug!!!

[fortunecookie]

What a bunch of holier-than-thou hypocrites! The absolute gall of Gore and Huffington to show up at the Sierra Club convention where Ford and Honda, among others, unveil their latest hybrid autos. Good cars for the little people, I'm sure they're thinking, that way we can feel as though we're doing something useful. Gee, how lucky us little peons are to have their wonderful guidance and leadership to save us from ourselves (oh yeah, sarcasm). They're commie roots are exposed by presuming themselves elites deserving of special priveleges.

[doug from upland]

I was really hoping they would do this, and them came through big time.
