It is amusing

Of course, they're playing off those anti-drug commercials that say drug buyers are supporting terrorists. The concept is so close as to be plagerism or copyright infringement, if such a thing applies to commercials, especially PSAs paid in part with tax dollars.

From what I heard, one of Huffington's supporters in the ad campaign is Norman Lear. He lives in a 13,000 square foot house that includes a 21 car garage. It sounds like he uses more oil than most people.

From what I heard today, Huffington herself lives in a 9000 square foot house. I bet it uses more energy to heat and cool that the average home.

She was challenged yesterday about riding on private jets. She said she doesn't own one but rides in them from time to time. Many of those jets use more fuel on a single flight than the average family uses in an entire year. She was rather defensive when her own lifestyle and energy consumption was discussed. It sounds rather like a "live as we say, not as we do" line to me.
