What country does AH originate from? Clearly someplace where freedom of speech does not reign.

I love the way the "editors" here automatically REMOVE any comments directly critical of the "Queen."

I just posted a comment relating to the biased nature of this site and guess what?

Now it's suddenly disappeared.

Nothing like freedom of speech, huh, Arriana?

If Huffington is such an honest political guru to many here...why doesn't she have the guts to officially endorse Obama?

Between the blaring HEADLINES bashing Hillary or Bill every day of the week, hour on the hour or the contributing writers who do the same via their screeds...why not just get it over with and quit trying to represent this site as anything other than a thoroughly pro-Obama get-together for those who support the man?

Oh, and by the way...I'll vote for Obama or Hillary, and at least I have the guts to admit it.

Arianna thank you for giving progressive politics a home where news can be discussed. You have helped me to clarify my political beliefs by reading the HUFFINGTON POST daily. The light you shine on a world-wide and domestic issues is daunting and serious. Though I have previously enjoyed Tracey Ullman; her performance of you falls horribly short. Tracey trivializes the serious issues you write about. A sense of humor and the ability to poke fun at public figures is a healthy thing. However Tracey portrays you as a self absorbed wealthy fashion victim who blogs about the most trivial parts of her personal life. Tracey is describing you as an "OUT OF TOUCH EFFETE LIBERAL." I am disappoint with Tracey Ullman's portrayal of you and the rest of her new series. I used to think Tracey was sympathetic to liberal causes. Now I am not sure. Most of her characters, Laurie David for example, are portrayed as hypocritical mean liberals. Tracey's impersonation of your latina maid has and "Indian" accent, the African American airport security attendant sound like no African American in my family and both these characters are decidedly stupid. Tracey trivializes you and Laurie David and your political efforts. I JUST DON'T GET IT! Up until now I have found Tracey Ullman to be one of the most funny and sympathetic comedians working. The new Tracey seems like a Republican hatchet job for all things I hold dear.

After supporting Ron Paul on Hannity.com and being banned for life, I found the Huffington Post a welcome opportunity to freely speak your mind. State of the Union is different, funny, but to be honest, I didn't like the 911 airplane segment; it was just a turn off. The Tutors, totally the best show on TV! Johnathan Reyes Meyers a hotty!

Granted, Ms Ullman is a very talented performer (her Arianna is spot on) but I'm having flashbacks to her original show. This stuff is just NOT funny. It's just a bunch of manic banter I found so annoying I could watch barely 90 seconds of before I had to turn it off. I don't have Showtime so I can't watch her program, but if these clips are representative, I'm not missing anything.

Tracy's brilliant, but I'll bet an entire penny she doesn't back Obama.

Someone is still thinking old media-like just because TU had a TV show thats off the air on over the air TV and only has specials on extra pay cable now and then and doesn't have a current hit on MTV.
Apparently they don't know she's one of the most wealthy celebs-I heard she's worth 75 mill.
And there's tons of her clips on you tube, and she has talent. I guess then Kathy Griffin or Margaret Cho
are beyond explanation too. Sorry if some folks think you have to be a Cameron or a Leonardo in the usual sense of celeb.

In very different ways, Arianna and Tracey are two of my favorite people!

It seems you can find someone to flame anyone who's mentioned on a blog, etc., (I guess maybe venting makes them feel better), but the fact is both of these outstanding women are smart, talented, and make incredible contributions through their work.

I wish both of them great health and continued success, so that we can enjoy their work for many years to come.

Shalom to all.

I love this show and I love Arianna Huffington. FYI she is my wife but don't tell anybody we like to keep that a little secret :)

Tracey Ullman's performance of Arianna is PERFECT in every way. She gets her accent, style, and personality down to a T.

Keep up the good work Mrs. Ullman.....
