[Anyone] Thank you liberals

[Mike in Taos]

Thank you liberals for helping my Exxon stock hit a new high by burning all 
that oil in your jets.

Exxon makes $10.5B, a near-record quarter

Soundly beats Wall Street estimates and posts the second highest quarterly 
profit ever for a U.S. company; stock hits all-time high.

Julia Roberts

On the ground: Roberts drives a Prius, which gets (at best) 60 miles to the 
gallon, shaving 30 miles off a normal car's mpg.
In the air: Chicago/LA, 1,749 miles in a private jet, the route she took 
with Rupert Everett while shooting "My Best Friend's Wedding."
Gas guzzled: 2,100 gallons of jet fuel.
Prius Penance: Julia would have to drive 30,000 miles, or roughly once 
around the earth and then some to even out her consumption in the air.
So Julia says: No word yet from Julia's rep.

Jennifer Lopez

On the ground: J-Lo tools around in her 60 miles-per-gallon Prius.
In the air: LA /New York, 2,475 miles in a private jet. Lopez was actually 
sued by a private jet company for allegedly skipping out on the bill, though 
she says it's all a misunderstanding and she was not supposed to be billed.
Gas guzzled: 2,750 gallons of jet fuel.
Prius penance: She'd have to drive 45,000 miles, and that's a lot longer for 
Jenny than just going do



wn the block. It's actually more like twice around the earth.
So Jennifer says: There was no comment from Lopez's rep.

George Clooney

On the ground: George favors a Tango, an electric car that gets a whopping 
135 miles to the charge.
In the air: Los Angeles/Tokyo, 5500 miles in a private jet.
Gas guzzled: 7,000 gallons of jet fuel.
Electric shocker: Even with his super-saver Tango, he'll have to drive over 
57 oceans -- Pacific Oceans to break even.
So George says: Clooney's rep, publicist Stan Rosenfield, tells TMZ, "You 
clearly have no understanding of certain people's need for private 
transport," and points out that Clooney often has "no control" over his 
travel schedule.

Brad Pitt

On the ground: Eco-champ Brad is yet another Prius-lover, and he reportedly 
has several hybrids in his stable.
In the air: Los Angeles/Namibia, 9,400 miles in a private jet.
Gas guzzled: 11,000 gallons of jet fuel.
Prius penance: Brad burned enough fuel to take a Prius to the moon.
So Brad says: Pitt didn't have any comment. His rep tells TMZ that Pitt is 
out of the country.
