As I was going through the podcast stats this morning, I noticed that my podcast You Are The Guest was getting pounded today by requests.
The reason: We were featured in a story about Bill Richardson in The Huffington Post.

Arianna Huffington: 2008 was a very memorable year, featuring one of the most unforgettable presidential campaigns in history. But with the New Year quickly approaching, and the Bush Years coming to an end, I'd like to take a moment to focus on the things that happened over the last twelve months that I'd love to forget. Here's my list: That Eliot Spitzer likes things "you might not think are
Syndicated columnist and blogger Arianna Huffington was the featured speaker at last night's St. Louis Speaker Series presentation at Powell Symphony Hall in St. Louis, Missouri.She stuck out her hand to greet me as she exited the town car upon her arrival. Ms. Huffington then agreed to pose for this photograph and signed one 8 x 10, commenting, "wow, you are really prepared."Thanks again Kevin!
“The Huffington Post” calls Sen. McCain’s military record “questionable” because it hasn’t been able to confirm a New York Times report, quoting at least three sources, that he was on the verge of being made an admiral in 1981, when he decided to run for Congress instead. The blog demands he release all his military [...]
Welcome to Asymmetric, liberal brothers and sisters. Doesn't it sound like Arianna has never heard anybody disagree with her? Her statement that she's not really giving a point of view so much as stating facts and everybody who disagrees with them is a nut is hilarious considering that she's factually wrong on everything. The category is "Debunking the Left" as Arianna is an auto-debunker (bunker?
Wow! What kind of man clips out the last seconds of somebody's statement so as to twist the man's true meaning? Howard Dean's DNC did it with McCain's "100 years in Iraq quote" and now Jamie Rubin does it with a McCain interview. Does the Huffington Post apologize for promoting this lie? No, it doubles down and finds some other, probably out-of-context quotes to "keep lies alive."

Arianna Huffington Video - Arianna Huffington Right is Wrong - Arianna Huffington Speech - Arianna Huffington Editor of the Huffington Post Speaks Out Huffington Speech - Arianna Huffington is the editor of The Huffington Post, a syndicated columnist and accomplished author. My question is...why on earth would anyone spend any of their precious time on the words of wisdom of this woman?I watched this video three times...yes THREE TIMES. Arianna Huffington's latest book is entitles, "Right is Wrong." To be honest, I am not sure from listening to this fine speech by Arianna Huffington that the woman can actually use logic, arrive at a meaningful conclusion, or even knows what she is actually saying as she delivers her speech. Arianna Huffington seems to be talking gibberish.As near as I
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 Du
Contrary to what the Liberals want you to believe, The story of McCain going to blows with another senator is old news, that has been reported a few times already. Quote: Perhaps the most remarkable story of McCain's temper involved Arizona Congressman Rick Renzi. Two former reporters covering McCain, one who witnessed the following events and one who confirmed the facts provided by the first, relayed it to me as follows: In 2006, the Arizona Republican congressional delegation had a strategy meeting. McCain repeatedly addressed two new members, congressmen Trent Franks and Rick Renzi, as 'boy.' Finally, Renzi, a former college linebacker, rose from his chair and said to McCain, "You call me that one more time and I'll kick your old ass." McCain lunged at Renzi, punches wer

All Conservatives/ Libertarians should read the liberal blogs from time to time. In order to make a valid argument for Conservatism, you must understand the other side. This is true even if the other side is devoid of any rational thought. I digress.
As many of you know, I often read the Huffington Post and Media Matters to point out when they are blatantly lying to their own constituency. ...

Liberal bloggers often make such baseless statements that I consider them comedians. Their arguments are rarely more complex than an attack on conservatives for being “stupid.” However, every once in a while liberal bloggers make my skin crawl with their Stalinist ideas. Well, today I happened to witness the latter.What is so awful about many of these liberal bloggers is that they are so isolated from any contradictory ideas. Consequently, when they seek to silence dissent via government action, many of them do not realize how totalitarian they really are. While conservatives and libertarians seek to educate their audience as much as possible, liberals conversely hope to prevent their side from hearing the opposition.The article that caught my eye recently was written by James Boyce, a liberal blogger on The Huffington Post. James Boyce did not write anything profound, but his statements are still touted as enlightening by those equally uninformed. Evidently, he disagreed wi
David Sirota's mind at work:
So here's the concept (which, though I'm not 100 percent sure, I don't think has been tried yet in Congress): How about when Congress reconvenes in September, Democrats bring a bill to the floor of the House and Senate mandating that, say, 25,000 National Guardsmen be taken out of combat in Iraq and be immediately redeployed to guard America's porous domestic borders - both southern and northern? If Democrats wanted to get even more creative, they could additionally mandate that some of these National Guardsmen being redeployed be immediately sent to forest fire emergency zones - many of which are in Republican states right now.

Arianna Huffington: It Shouldn't Have Taken the Deaths of Three Miners to Get the Media to Focus on Mine SafetyExcerpt:"So last night, suddenly, after the tragic second collapse at the Utah mine, there was a dramatic shift in the TV coverage of the story. All at once, faux folksy mining boss Bob Murray, who had been everywhere, was nowhere to be found (even sending in a junior executive to handle this morning's press conference). In his place, at long last, were actual scientists, and experts on mine safety and the workings of the Mine Safety and Health Administration. Bush mine safety czar Richard "Recess Appointment" Stickler was also absent last night, and did not appear again until this morning's press conference."Read Story

Arianna Huffington - Iraq: The Battle of September Has Already BegunExcerpt:"According to the White House -- and to the dwindling number of Congressional dead-enders still backing the war in Iraq -- we have to wait until September to be able to judge whether President Bush's escalation strategy has been a success.Well, I've just returned from September and I can tell you two things:1) I've seen the future and it doesn't work.2) The administration will lie and claim that it does.How did I accomplish this time-traveling feat? Very simple -- I just watched Meet the Press, and there was Ryan Crocker, U.S. ambassador to Iraq, who together with General Petraeus will testify to Congress. He demonstrated that along with the surge in troops, there's also been a surge in BS."http://www.huffingtonpost.com/arianna-huffington/iraq-the-battle-of-septe_b_52516.html

None-the-less she has no problem attending a fundraiser hosted for her by Rupert Murdoch.If anyone was responsible for hateful hurtful comments in the media it's the Fox News Channel founder.

Huffington Post: The 2008 Chaos Election Theory, or: the Year of User-Generated SwiftboatingExcerpt:"That requires some explaining. The Web has played an increasing role in the US presidential campaigns ever since 1996. In 2004, blogs and MeetUp and online fund-raising were central in creating the illusion that Howard Dean was unstoppable, just to see him melt away as soon as he stepped out of the overheated online bubble. But at the end, television decided: think of the inordinate impact of the "Swift Boat Veterans for Truth" campaign to distort John Kerry's military record (he was decorated for his service in Vietnam) that used four deceitful TV advertisements which instilled doubts in many people about his honesty and inserted a lot of static into his message. A tactic that became known as "swiftboating"."http://www.huffingtonpost.com/bruno-giussani/the-2008-chaos-election-t_b_45205.htmlAlex
