Whatever you do - do not follow Gov. Nikki Haley from SC. If you make a comment on her facebook page and she doesn't agree with it or doesn't like it, she will delete the comment and ban you from making anymore comments on her facebook page.
Guess she is just going to stick her head in the sand and pretend that people that don't agree with her, don't exist.

Frist? Are you kidding? He was one of the leeches who turned Mrs. Schiavo's tragedy into a circus.

These guys are creepy.

Um, how about a REASON to follow these people, HuffPo?

[Me atlast]

02:52 PM on 05/07/2012

To what purpose does this serve? I just see it as 50 more reasons to not use Facebook.

The article was written by Ethan Klapper. Guess he has nothing better to write about, so he makes lists. I have a grandson like that but he has Asperger's Syndrome and ADHD ...

I started looking through this list and then thought to myself, "Most of these people have opinions that are no better than my own." So I stopped looking.

anyone who has a personal page on Facebook that is capable of being "Friended" but who makes it about their profession, in my book, is not "cool" and I don't give two sh±ts what they have to say.

America needs to learn to work to live instead of live to work. This is why corporations are taking over our lives.

I stopped looking when I hit Bret Baier. If I want comedy, I'll watch Colbert/Stewart. They're actually funny.

well, i've subscribed to Pres. Barrack Obama. and a few other fellas. buh this list is biased and useless. aint subscribing to any of these.

This is pathetic!

HuffPo just became a political activist site. As well as exposing their hand on WHO they support.. Hope you filed your PAC paper work...

[trambusto]

HuffPo has never had any shame in which way they lean, nor have they ever claimed to be "Fair and Balanced".

Josh Romney? And the reason? Is he the useless son who took the photo of phony Mitt and Ann at the washing machine? Is he the birther idiot who walked back his comment in less than 12 hours? Is he the one who did the gush-tweet about Nutty Nugent endorsing his empty-suit dad? Is he the one who got so righteously enraged defending his never-went-to-work mother? Or is he the dope that went to Guam to watch the vote count? I ask because I don't keep tract, and have much more interesting people to follow. I do know for sure that he and his other 4 useless brothers all do have one thing in common---they all chickened out of military duty, right?
