Left-wingers do the darndest things: Even as he appears on TV commercials pitching frequent flyer rewards, warmist Alec Baldwin calls James Inhofe an "Oil Whore"

Maybe Baldwin should hawk airline travel rewards only for those airlines whose planes are 100% powered by wind turbines or solar panels.

Capital One Issues Bold 'Double Miles Challenge' -- MCLEAN, Va., March 12, 2012 /PRNewswire/ --

MCLEAN, Va., March 12, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Capital One Financial Corporation (NYSE: COF) recently announced a bold new offer, launching the Venture "Double Miles Challenge" (www.capitaloneventure.com) which gives consumers who open a Capital One Venture Card the opportunity to earn double miles, up to 100,000, for every dollar they spent on a major travel rewards credit card in 2011. The limited time offer expires when Capital One reaches the one billion mile mark or May 1st, whichever comes first. The Double Miles Challenge follows last year's wildly successful Match My Miles campaign, which gave consumers the chance to match up to 100,000 miles they had in an airline credit card rewards program. The company gave out more than a billion miles to new Venture customers during this challenge.

...The Venture "Double Miles Challenge" is being promoted via an integrated marketing campaign including a national television advertisement featuring Alec Baldwin, who joins an army of Capital One Visigoths in a field and rallies them around the "double miles" offer to consumers. 

...The Venture card has been lauded as a top travel rewards card by publications like MONEY® Magazine, BusinessInsider, NerdWallet and Cardratings.com. Features of the card include:

  • Earn double miles on every purchase, every day
  • The flexibility to fly free on any airline, anytime, with no blackout dates or restrictions
  • The ability to redeem miles for any travel purchase -- airline, hotel, rental car and more – before, during or after travel
