This may be about a week early, but it's way too much fun to wait.

The good folks at Rebel Christmas Card 2009 have created a fabulous video short of America's favorite counter-terrorism agent Jack Bauer interrogating Santa Claus.

Before Bauer begins using his knife to find out what Santa is doing in the country, Claus marvelously says, "Think about what you're doing, Jack. No present for you this year" (video embedded below the fold, h/t Instapundit via Ed Morrissey):

Jim Treacher at DailyGut.com has an excellent slam of how loopy and left-wing Fox's "24" is becoming with its carbon-neutral push for Season 7.

Six Ways Jack Bauer Will Fight Global Warming:

  1. Travel from one end of LA to another in 15 minutes on a bicycle.
  2. Replace power-sucking PDA with pad of Post-Its and No. 2 pencil. ("Chloe, send it to my sticky note.")
  3. Yelling releases excess carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. Interrogations will be conducted via sign language and harsh glaring.
  4. After torturing terrorist with plugged-in lamp cord, buy carbon offsets to make up for wasted electricity.
  5. All explosions will be rendered South Park-style with red, yellow, and orange construction paper (recycled).
  6. Cancel the show because it sucks now anyway.
(I'm doing my part by recycling this post!)

My working theory is that the show's creators have been cowed into making penance to the Left for hanging out with conservative radio host Rush Limbaugh. Thoughts?

With Saturday's revelation that the hit television series "24" has gone carbon neutral, it only seems logical that some episodes next year might involve characters advancing anti-global warming principles or taking green measures to protect the environment.
