I held my breath eleven months to post this rubbish, and all I got was this lousy zot. (Arianna SUV)

Doug From Upland's siting Arianna Huggington and Al Gore exiting large vehicles at a conference on the environment in San Francisco has set the blogs afire. But there are legitimate uses for large vehicles. Really there are. The I just don't think one person driving the LA freeways in one because the want to win a collision contest at the expense of the unfortunate person they might collide with isn't one. Neither is having bigger, always spinning wheels than your neighbor. Neither is because you get a tax writeoff for a vehicle you use only for commuting and driving to the convenience store for ciggaretts and Cheesy Puffs.
The Sierra Club is an organization that uses large passenger vehicles wisely, it's the nation's number one outdoor activity organization - the Sierra Club. They use their large vehicles to take people hiking, rafting, etc. When they go afield fill the vehicles with people and gear rather efficiently, using much less gas than if they all drove individual vehicles in groups of 2 or 3. The Suburban they picked Arianna in may well have been the Sierra Club's designated airport vehicle - with features for handicapped (something the Sierra Club is known for) and perhaps airport parking sticker.
As for Gore driving an Escalade. Is that the Escalade that coverts from open-bed truck to enclosed bed (SUV?). And isnt Gore from an Agricultural state. In fact, if I recall hes a farm boy; probably lives on a working farm. Sorry city boy but low-ground clearance, two-wheel drive freeway flyers just get stuck in that Iowa mud down on the farm. Once again, if you nail Gore for driving an SUV, the BS you smell emanating as he exits his vehicle may be real and I for one am not about to tell farmers and ranchers, or people that have to drive on farm or ranch roads, they cant have a truck or other large, high wheelbase vehicle.
It's amazing the hunger for fresh liberal blood. But just like the Swiftboat Vets before him. By the time the undamming truth of DFU's charges comes out, the little weasel will have moved on to the next unsustinable smear campaign.

That they're all driving around alone with their cell phones in hand? I guess all those large families who like to camp and boat don't count since they aren't Sierra Club members.

Tennessee is as much of an "agricultural state" as New York - maybe less so.
Using your logic to justify the Goron, everyone in NYC should be able to drive a SUV which luckily, despite the attempts of the elitists on the left, they still are, if they choose to.
Funny how libs are only pro-choice when it involves abortion.
To: dirtboy
>>>>So, in other words, you environmental elitists can fly 707s around for fun (Travolta) or take a Suburban to a Sierra Club meeting (Arianna), but us little people need to conserve energy so there is enough for you to have your fun.

... with features for handicapped (something the Sierra Club is known for) ... To take the handicapped on 10-mile wilderness hikes, right? I suppose the Sierra Club has gas-guzzling wheel chairs, too, right? Sorry ... ain't buyin' it ... a minivan will do all of these things and get better mileage. Face it: Sierra Club and their left-wing Gore/Huffington wackos are hypocrites.

"And isnt Gore from an Agricultural state. In fact, if I recall hes a farm boy; probably lives on a working farm. No, Al Gore was born in DC. He grew up in DC. He pretended to be from my home State of TN when he got himself into the family business - ripping off the voters of Tennessee - and then again when he was the Vice President to Bill "stains" Clinton.

Al Gore? The former Senator and Vice President? Son of Albert Gore Sr? On a working farm? In Washington D of C?

Yep, raised at St. Albans, an ultra exclusive boy's boarding school in DC. But I'm sure there must have been a hoedown or two.
