You Conserve, But They Deserve

From Michelle Malkin's video blog Hot Air I learn that certain liberal greenie wannabes, while preaching conservation and cursing SUVs, in fact commit massive pollution themselves via their lavish "celebrity" lifestyle. A few examples:

• Ted Kennedy tried to slip an amendment into an unrelated Coast Guard bill to kill a proposed windmill farm at Cape Cod, where the Kennedy's own an estate. Apparently, the wind turbines would ruin the view.
• Barbara Streisand has a massive oceanside mansion in Malibu, and is said to drive an SUV.
• Arianna Huffington was chauffeured from a Sierra Club national summit in a Chevrolet Suburban
• Gwyneth Paltrow, according to a neighbor, drives a Mercedes SUV.
• In addition to their Priuses, Chevy Chase and family own an SUV which they use to tow a horse trailer.
• Michael Moore traveled in a private jet when traveling on a book tour.
• And of course, there is John Kerry's Scaramouche powerboat, as well as his SUV collection.

Many "celebrities"* frequently travel by private jet and luxury limousine, using up way more fossil fuel than if they would fly commercial, and use a normal taxi. Hence the effective and derisive label that the conservative blogosphere has nailed them with, "Gulfstream Liberals".

*I refuse to celebrate them, so to me, they are "celebrities".
