2008-05-31 00:00:00 -By Warner Todd Huston Let’s take a little time off of more serious matters for some juicy gossip.

Light Reading: Lefty Anger, Huff and Puff in the Case of the Overinflated S
2008-05-07 21:04:00 Michelle Malkin takes on Michelle Obama?s endless flow of whining and bile. It?s not surprising. As I pointed out in my Anger on the Left post, Leftism once seemed logically congruent with anger because Leftism was the politics of the underclass. In recent years, though, Leftism has shifted to become the politics of ...

Beware Of Greeks Bearing Rifts
2008-04-30 13:52:00 The symbiotic relationship between tedious liberal intelligentsia blowhard Huff Post Arianna Stassinopoulos Huffington and NBC News appears to be over. Keith J. Kelly NYP Arianna Huffington claims that she was banished from NBC News shows because her new book, "Right is Wrong," blasted "Meet the Press" anchor Tim Russert. Huffington is the force behind the Huffington Post, an influential political Web site where she had started a blog called "Russert Watch." Her new book, which is slated to hit later this week carries the sub title, "How the Lunatic Fringe Hijacked America, Shredded the Constitution and Made Us All Less Safe." Aside from being the anchor, Russert is also the managing editor of the show, the Washington Bureau Chief of NBC News and a senior vice president of NBC News. Huffington dubs him "EZ Pass" Russert because she claims his softball questions give the Washington elite a free wave-through when they appear on his shows. While he may ask a tough opening question, he ...

Arianna Huffington: Bringing America together one insult at a time
2008-04-23 13:21:00 The most conservative moment in American remakes of French films occurs in The Birdcage. When the Williams character is shocked that his son's potential father-in-law is a conservative, the son responds with, "Dad, half the country is conservative." I remember thinking at the time that it was a bold realization that the targets of liberal scorn actually outnumber themselves. The Birdcage A fact apparently lost on Arianna Huffington. The left wants to unite Americans, right? One big, fat purple country, si? Such a bold union would include the conservative half, no? Not if Arianna Huffington gets her way. Witness this Arianna Huffington post. She seems genuinely puzzled why conservative "Neanderthals" get to pollute our airwaves with their extreme views. Extreme views? Like who: David Duke? Pat Robertson? No: Like clockwork, as soon as I published that post, yet more evidence arrived in my in box -- word that Tony Snow, late of Fox News, and more recently of the White House, whe...

It was so seamless you'd think they'd orchestrated it). A sea of bepoke suits. There was enough dough on the backs, fingers, wrists, and ears to pay for body armor for America's troops in Iraq (Hillary zinged Bush during the "debate" or "conversation" - as she and Wolf Blitzer put it - for deserting the poor suckers on the desert unprotected).

Arianna Huffington - My Email To Arianna On Lousy Dem Debate Article
2008-01-16 10:59:00 Hi Arianna,Normally, I enjoy the Huff Post, but this article makes my BLOOD boil. Which one? This one: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/h-uff-wires/20080115/democratic-r-dp/ "Clinton, Obama Vow to Bury Race Debate"Why does the write refer to John Edwards as "the only white male in the race'? So freaking what? And why do your editors select headlines that focus on Obama and race and insult Obama?I didn't see the debate -- I was at MacWorld -- but everyone I talked to, half not with any candidate in terms of preference -- said "Obama won."Why in heaven's name are you all so afraid to point out when he does well, and why are you letting your new editor continue to inject racism into the campaign.This is a real low for the Huffington Post.Best,Zennie
Arianna Huffington's Beautiful Article On Obama's Win
2008-01-04 11:28:00 This is a great and emotional and heartfelt article by Arianna Huffington is one that should read again and again. Obama Wins Iowa: Why Everyone Has a Reason to Celebrate TonightEven if your candidate didn't win tonight, you have reason to celebrate. We all do.Barack Obama's stirring victory in Iowa -- down home, folksy, farm-fed, Midwestern, and 92 percent white Iowa -- says a lot about America, and also about the current mindset of the American voter.Because tonight voters decided that they didn't want to look back. They wanted to look into the future -- as if a country exhausted by the last seven years wanted to recapture its youth.Bush's re-election in 2004 was a monument to the power of fear and fear-mongering. Be Very Afraid was Bush/Cheney's Plans A through Z. The only card in the Rove-dealt deck. And it worked. America, its vision distorted by the mushroom clouds conjured by Bush and Cheney, made a collective sprint to the bomb shelters in our minds, our lizard brains ...

Dems Are Addicted to Backing Down
2007-12-11 13:41:00 "Mostly quiet acquiescence, if not outright support." That is how, according to the Washington Post, officials present characterized the reaction of lawmakers, including Democrats such as Nancy Pelosi and Jane Harman, when they were briefed in 2002 about waterboarding and other severe interrogation techniques being employed by the CIA. But it could just as well be the slogan of the Democrats for much of the last six-plus years -- especially on Iraq. It's no wonder Democrats have already decided to capitulate on the war funding bill coming before Congress next week. As recently as three weeks ago, Speaker Pelosi said there would be no more votes on Iraq funding this year (she said the same thing -- both about no votes this year and no votes in '08 without a withdrawal date -- when I interviewed her in October), and last month Sen. Chuck Schumer thundered, "The days of a free lunch are over." Well, over in the same way that U.S. state-sanctioned torture is over. Which is to say,...

2007-11-03 22:55:00 Keith Olbermann hates to be wrong. He apologized Friday night to Rudy Guiliani for quoting an AP story the AP retracted two days later. YouTubeBut then His Keithness turned around and pinned his "Worst Person In The World" award on - Rudy Guiliani for the corrected AP story. Time for COUNTDOWN`s Worst Persons in the World. The bronze to Rudy Giuliani for telling an audience in Portland on Tuesday -- or rather New Hampshire on Tuesday that Senators Clinton and Obama might, quote, invite Ahmadinejad to the White House and will invite Assad to the White House. I mean, Hillary and Obama are kind of debating, you know, whether to invite them to inauguration or the inaugural ball? What, you get a pass because you didn`t say they would invite bin Laden to the inauguration, just the despots of Iran and Syria? The heck you do.

You just knew that Bush would get blamed for not astral-projecting to survey the scene. Liberal blowhards such as MSNBC's Chris Matthews, Edward R. Murrow Apparition Keith Olbermann, the Huffington Post hags, piled on Bush. To be honest, Bush probably didn't want to go. Let's see if he emerges gaffe-free when he tours the mess tomorrow.

Poor Arianna Huffington...She doesn't Get It Either
2007-09-11 10:57:00 Add one more loser to the pile of irrelevancy.I was in Miami last night for the Univision-hosted Democratic debate. Listening to their responses on Iraq left no doubt that the candidates have gotten the message that, no matter what Gen. Petraeus says during his testimony, the American people -- including the Hispanic community -- are done with this war.It is all so evident that none of them knows what constitutes a civil war. One would think and/or hope that they knew what a dictionary was and how to use one. But, that would require some forethought and moral fortitude to investigate that which they lamely claim.Actual Criteria for a Civil War:Some civil wars are categorized as revolutions when major societal restructuring is a possible outcome of the conflict. An insurgency, whether successful or not, is likely to be classified as a civil war by some historians if, and only if, organized armies fight conventional battles.Military Definition of Civil War:?A war between factions of...

Hillary Clinton -Arianna Huffington Points To Senator's Problem With Hiding
2007-07-04 10:28:00 This article is a must read as it distills the Carl Berstein book in a way that's not been done on CNN or any other news program. It also forms the perfect foundation to explain what I'm starting to call "The Peter Paul Affair." Arianna Huffington: Hillary's disturbing secrecy problemBy Arianna HuffingtonTribune Media ServicesArticle Last Updated: 06/28/2007 06:01:56 PM MDTI spent the weekend reading A Woman in Charge, Carl Bernstein's biography of Hillary Clinton (OK, I know I'm late) while being simultaneously bombarded with fresh evidence of the Bush/Cheney administration's pathological obsession with secrecy. Historians will be debating for decades what the worst element of the Bush White House was - but at the root of the entire cancerous structure is George Bush and Dick Cheney's shared fixation on secrecy. Their mutual contempt for the public's right to know knows no bounds. Witness the VP's absurd attempt to escape oversight by claiming he's not part of the...
Arianna Huffington: Benchmarks: Yet Another Bush Mirage
2007-05-04 10:41:00 Author: Arianna HuffingtonThe hottest term in post-veto Washington is suddenly "benchmarks." If you had a dollar for every time it's been bandied about his week, you could outbid Rupert Murdoch for the Journal -- or, at least, pay for all the Valium being downed by Deborah Jean Palfrey's clients. But amidst all the benchmark babble, there has been precious little clarity on whether they represent an acceptable compromise position -- or are just another Bush mirage shimmering in the Iraqi desert. Thank goodness for Michael Ware, CNN's Baghdad-based war correspondent. Amid the hot air, his reporting is like a bracing splash of ice cold water to the face. A jolt of from-the-belly-of-the-beast reality. A wake-up call delivered via jackhammer. With an Australian accent. I caught him the other night on Anderson Cooper 360°, discussing the latest from Iraq with Cooper and David Gergen. Now I love David Gergen as a person, but the contrast between his safely-ensconced-in-the...

2007-04-30 12:33:00 HuffingtonPost.com - Does this sound familiar? A senior Bush administration official plays a key role in selling the Iraq war debacle to the American public, resigns a few years later, and then tries to distance himself from Bush and the war by writing a book or talking to Bob Woodward, portraying himself as a poor, hapless victim who knew the truth at the time and really, really wanted to tell it, but, somehow, just had no choice but to go along.
