In the last 8 years of Right Rule:

5 years of War
Over 4000 dead
Over 30,000 wounded
A surplus turned into a trillion dollar debt
Record oil profits with record per gallon gas prices
The top 1% of the very wealthy becoming insanely wealthy
Net worth and buying power of the vast majority are declining
The most inarticulate, uninspiring, unpopular president
Rampant abuse of signing statements to usurp congressional oversight
Abuse of the Justice department and other gov agency for political gain
A clear failure of right wing ideology after successfully occupying all 3 branches
Massive devaluation of the dollar along with massive home foreclosures
The erosion of the separation of Church and State
The disrespect and abuse of the scientific community and method
The utter failure of abstinence only sex education
Etc, etc, etc, etc¦..

AND NOT ONE OUNCE OF HUMILITY FROM THE RIGHT! Not one of you has the fortitude to admit the failures of the last 8 years and try to understand why people are fed up. All you"re doing at this point is showing others what it"s like to be an insolent, stubborn, partisan, and narrow-minded jackass!

Congratulations Arianna!

I cannot say more until I have read it.

You do not judge a book by the title or what the author says until you have read it from the first page to the last page.

Cheers and God bless.

[MPeter]

Arianna,
I kept hoping you would include Blitzer, Yellen, Malveaux, Andrea Mitchell, A Copper, Lou Dobbs among others in the lunatic fringe but you kept holding back. Blitzer is loonie too and he is on the fringe even though he works for the CNN brand!!

[REAGANRIGHT]

What a puff piece, when Blitzed started the interview with a comment about the huffpo being honest, I knew this was a joke interview, done just to sell her book..
That is the last thing this place is, they will twist and distort anything to make their point, and when someone posts a comment that shows this for a fact it gets yanked. If she wanted to do a real interview with real questions, she wouldnt go to blitzed or blaberman, who ask softball questions, she would go on O'riley and have to answer the tough ones. She wont do this though, she could not stand up to the light of truth.

[actionnotwords]

Shhh... the adults are talking.

[VictorLudorum]

Right is always right............right was so right that Theresa walked out from WashingtonWatch claiming that the Gopers did'nt want to listen,
nor were they less biased,
she invited me to abuzz.nytimes
and made me an ass,
first they trimmed my ears,
then stripped my posts,
the made a lot of ,oney,
because of what i wrote,
cause i wrote about history and about christ jesus,
and finally the abuzz people invited the germans ,
who rooted into the internet down here,
i had to live on the washington watch platform,
until i could hear the war bells
there was everyone there,
even coulter had a say
soon george pointed his gun,
i too candidly said 'this way!
but i tell you the right is right,
its the 'sons' a strange dillema,
thats like a virus allover the world,
the 'sons' are wrong.............................................................................................the former uk primeminister is a lehman brothers gaffer,
the french president shirac left with a burning stone against mafias inside ,
now this ones married a model girl who could threaten you "im a mafia pal" but cant give you a blow job ,my man just boxed my mouth and head,
right has historically been right,
because thieres a small cube to live in,
but the 'sons' ??????????????
must be why elenour roosevelt let them turn all the women into bitches.....

Nothing new on the book I didn't know but at least she is able to verbalize it and was given the forum to express these ideas. Where is all of this going to, though? Are people really influencing those that have or are still supporting the madness we are in? Are we really on the way to changing the way we operate around the world, or even make things more livable at home? Is it just going to be more of the same next four years?

[JScott]

I dunno but seems to me doing the same stuff over and over on a media promo tour does get kinda tiring but I guess it'll be worth it in book sales. Would be interesting to see how it sells vs. Ann Coulter's et al hard copy rants.

[Mattie]

did she discuss how her website put up a false video claiming the Clinton campaign used racial slurs. Did she talk about how quick she was to trash Hillary based on a doctored video that was made up. Did she discuss how this video got out there. She talked about Hillary using Rove tactics, but completely ignored the disgusting video put out by the Obama campaign to discredit Clinton right before the Indiana primary. Don't say there is no proof his side did it, who else would do it. No, she just continued her hate rants against Clinton. I'm done with this site, why is it that everyone who supports the campaign of hope and change is so completely hate filled and nasty. If Obama is the nominee in November instead of volunteering for the DFL in my state as I usually do, I will actively campaign against him. This video proves what a disgusting human being he is, and what a phony politician he is. The hate and violence I see posted here by Obama supporters makes me laugh out loud every time I read it. Hope and Change is a cute little slogan, it means as much as FOX saying they are fair and balanced. Go ahead and attack now Obama supporters, you prove my point every time you write your hate.

[CjAzure]

There is some major hate coming out of your post there Mattie! Peace and love and hope and change to you too!
An Obama supporter

[realpolitic]

Mattie is the biggest Obama hater in the country. She never really says why. Obama must have run over her pet doggie.

[capsaicin]

"Hate and violence"? The fact that you mentioned the DFL indicates that you're a Minnesotan, and as a fellow Minnesotan, independent voter and Obama supporter, I have to say that it is truly a shame that you would actively campaign here against Obama out of spite. Fortunately, it is obvious from our caucus results that Obama will win MN easily in '08, so the rest of us aren't too worried about your mean-spirited threat of a personal anti-Obama campaign. I guess we are too consumed by our own hatred to realize that Obama is a "disgusting human being". Or something like that.

[missjabez]

I know I may sound like I am brown-nosing, but Arianna, you are so pretty!

[realpolitic]

She is gorgeous!

[CjAzure]

Good job Arianna! Thank you for speaking out against the lack of media attention on the war in Iraq. I wish the MSM would have some kind of ongoing "war wire" like you do here to remind the country continually the price we are paying everyday of this tragedy! Good luck with your book. The right iS wrong! I was also glad to hear you take a stand for Obama and call out McCain. Well done.

[theidaexpress]

I love how this is still on the front page. Can she love herself anymore?

[whizkid]

If Hillary isn't the nominee we are coming for Arianna's daughter.

[mamak]

Did you just threaten her?

[Mattie]

I think that's what Obama supporters usually do, so don't pretend to be to shocked. I read constant calls for violence here if Obama isn't the nominee. It's part of the politics of hope and change I guess

[plainsman]

The one constant I notice in all of interviews is how quickly the subject is shifted once the Pentagon analyst story is mentioned. The hosts certainly know about it, but have received the no-cover 'memo.' Sad.

[Stevelagain]

I'll bet if she wrote one that was titled: Wright is Wrong it would be an instant best seller.

[zenguy]

Give her a break, she is awake now making and getting ready to promote more "War Room" videos.

[Stevelagain]

I'm serious. If she had her picture on a book and it was titled "Wright is Wrong" she probably would have had a best seller.

Has she really spoken on Wright. Did she defend him as being misunderstood and taken out of context before Obama tossed him under the bus with Grandma?

[ohiomark]

It appears that Arianna just loves to see herself on TV and hear herself speak.

We get it, you have a new book, it's not "news" when you go on another show to promote it.

Is this an "internet newspaper" or just your personal scoreboard for your TV shots?

[Snowspot]

Umm... what are you talking about? Arianna Huffington. Huffington Post. If you come here you probably agree with Arianna or you are interested in her ideas... so why wouldn't people want to watch television clips like this?

We want to see the foreign policy debate.. It also helps to see Arianna defending what we believe in, she's a breath of fresh air compared to what's out there right now.

[geneven]

Who does Arianna defend? When I listened to her on the radio, (KCRW, Santa Monica) she was a Bush supporter. People hold it against Hillary that she cast a wrong vote on Iraq, what about someone like Arianna, who spent a sizable part of her life helping Bush and similar conservatives?

[Stevelagain]

Uhhh, this is a BLOG not an "internet News Paper". And this blog shapes the issues it delivers to support the agenda of Arianna, which is what blog owners tend to do.

If you want news you are going to have to go to Fox to see what all the bloggers are spinning.

[ohiomark]

Yes, you are right. I have been aware that this is not a "real" news site for a while now. I'm just pointing it out to the moonbats that believe that it is.

[realpolitic]

Wow, Ohiomark, I guess you could always go someplace else for your news, unless under your probation guidelines you must come here daily? There is always the Fox News website where you would feel very much at home.

[ohiomark]

I don't come here for news. I am here strictly for entertainment. It's fun to watch the liberals live up to the stereotypes every day.

I read other news sites first, then come here watch all the different spin. It's a lesson in contrast.

[truthsayer]

UnbiasView probably also thinks Jesus was a conservative and would love "right wing" ideology were he around today. The so-called 'right' hope that everyone is as ignorant of facts and history as they are.

[zenguy]

I am surprised you can understand her. She still is trapped in annoying-accent mode for me.

[realpolitic]

UnbiasedView and a few others are the biggest reactionaries on this site.

[UnbiasView]

Challenge my posts with facts and then we'll talk, usually points that cannot be understood by many on this site end up in name calling.

[UnbiasView]

Never really thought about it before nor do I care. IMO, Jesus was too smart to get involved with politics, they are all snakes.
