Gas-Guzzling SUV Haters

Want more proof that many of the anti-SUV crowd are less concerned about patriotism or the environment and more concerned about drawing arbitrary distinctions to assert moral superiority? Check out today's NY Post's "Page Six" col, which notes:

THE four founders of the Detroit Project—the anti-SUV campaign that blames the gas-guzzlers for aiding terrorism—have a blind spot when it comes to the use of gas-guzzling private jets.

The short bit details how Arianna Huffington, film producer Lawrence Bender (Reservoir Dogs), talent agent Ari Emanuel (brother of U.S. Rep. Rahm Emanuel), and Laurie David (wife of Seinfeld co-creator Larry David), all prefer private jets to commercial flights.

It's not about burning petrol in toto, you see–it's about doing it in style.
