HUFFINGTON LOST
A conversation with Arianna:
Porter Berry, Fox News: Ms. Huffington, how are you? I’m Porter Berry from “The O’Reilly Factor.” I wanted to ask you a couple of questions about the Web site. Some of the stuff you have on the Web site, some hate speech. One person commented talking about Tony Snow. They said quote, “His cancer will return and he will die a very painful death ..."
Arianna Huffington, Huffington Post: You know what? I think you need to learn something about the Internet. The comments that appear there are taken down immediately.
Porter Berry: This was posted on the middle of February and was up yesterday.
A Bill O’Reilly versus Zsa Zsa von Huffington throw-down is, for me, like watching the Philly Eagles play the Dallas Cowboys. I hate both teams, wish they could both lose, and just hope for the maximum number of injuries.
Same with Barry O’Bama versus Cackly Evita, come to think of it.Posted by formerly Huck Foley on 2008 03 23 at 02:14 PM • permalinkIn her case, “immediately” only applies to those comments with which she disagrees. Those comments are taken down immediately. The others...well...why take them down at all? For retards like Arianna, wishing for the death of Tony Snow (or Cheney, or Bush, or anyone on the Right) isn’t hate speech. It’s cocktail hour chatter.
I’d be willing to bet her foul-mouthed synchophants are crowing that she won that exchange. Arianna may be an idiot, but her readers and contributors are aping an idiot.
Posted by Spiny Norman on 2008 03 23 at 02:28 PM • permalinkI don’t think Arianna is stupid; if you read the O’Reilly transcript, you’ll see that she’s making a s**tload of cash off of HuffPo.
No, I think she’s an hypocritical, evil pandering bitch, making a profit from hate and ignorance.
Very much like Bill O’Reilly, in point of fact.
Posted by The_Real_JeffS on 2008 03 23 at 05:01 PM • permalinkFox News and especially Blowhard O’Reilly have a vendetta against the Internet for its “unrestrained hate speech.”
Well...yeah. It’s called “free expression.” Everyone has the right to make an ass of himself saying stupid shit. Big deal. It’s just words. Somehow I don’t think Tony Snow’s cancer is going to metastasize faster because of it.
I like Fox for the counterweight it provides to the leftists in the rest of the MSM, but in the end they’re still Internet-phobic MSM.
Arianna Huffington is a person who has a very strong need for attention and validation. If she can’t get it from the right, she’ll try getting it from the left.

PROMINENT supporters of Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama both faulted Obama’s campaign for allowing a retired general and backer of the Illinois senator to equate comments by Clinton’s husband to the anti-communist witchhunts of the 1950s.Former President Bill Clinton, speculating about a general election matchup pitting his wife against Republican John McCain, told a group of veterans in North Carolina on Friday: “I think it would be a great thing if we had an election year where you had two people who loved this country and were devoted to the interest of this country. And people could actually ask themselves who is right on these issues, instead of all this other stuff that always seems to intrude itself on our politics.”
Retired General Merrill “Tony” McPeak, a co-chairman of Obama’s campaign, took offence and accused Bill Clinton of being divisive and trying to question Obama’s patriotism.
McPeak on Friday compared the former president’s comments with the actions of Joseph McCarthy, the 1950s communist-hunting senator, saying he’s had enough of people “accusing good Americans of being traitors.”
“I don’t believe President Clinton was implying that,’’ said New Mexico Gov. Bill Richardson, a former presidential candidate who endorsed Obama on Friday. “But the point here ... is that the campaign has gotten too negative - too many personal attacks, too much negativity that is not resounding with the public.”
Asked whether Obama’s campaign was being too negative in accusing Bill Clinton of McCarthyism, Pennsylvania Governor Ed Ap report: Rendell, a Clinton supporter, said, “Of course ... the Obama campaign tries to have it both ways,” he said.
Rendell said Bill Clinton was saying what many people think, that the campaign should focus on the economy, health care and the candidates’ experience, for example, and not on race and other distractions.‘Distraction’ is the code word Obama used trying to get out from under Rev Jeremiah Wright
[Jeremiah -what a good name for his jeremiads].It seems Obama was distracted from listening closely to Wright for -say- 20 years?

The Left hates Fox News and O’Reilly in particular. That’s a great commendation.
That effect wears off as soon as you try to actually watch them, and notice that they suck.

It’s kind of like the Left is raging at the National Enquirer.
Posted by Spiny Norman on 2008 03 24 at 03:16 AM • permalinkSpiro Agnew was spot on the money with his comments about “limousine liberals” like Huffington.

GOTCHYA! Arianna is stupid. Just about the only thing that she can do successfully is marry into money.
