How do you solve a problem like Arianna?

Ms. A. Huffington said this to Poltico "There's absolutely no way you'd call the Huffington Post a partisan defender of the Obama White House,".

Wow. That sentence is bat shit crazy. Akin to saying Joe Stalin was a small d democrat.

This leaves sane people with a few options regarding how to view her:

1. She is a delusional crack pot.

or

2. She senses yet another shift in the wind and will be ahead of the curve as the country turns on Obama.

or

3. She is a big, unapologetic, liar.


I'd go with the combo platter here. Her crack pottery is well documented. But she is astute enough to know that Obama is drifting south in the polls - now at a steady - if slow- pace and that Hufpo's relentless apologia for Obama can't last forever. She is also - by virtue of the statement above - clearly a liar. The Huffington Post became the house organ of Barack Obama years ago. The cavalcade of sexist attacks on Clinton and later Palin defined it in 2008. It is now the succubus of the liberal blogosphere.

Ms. Huffington has been:

a libertarian
a conservative Republican
a follower of new age leader John Roger
a follower of Indian guru Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh
An anti-feminist
A feminist
She now describes herself as a "progressive independent coming from the fourth dimension of political time and space."

Ed Rollins has a different take saying she is "a domineering Greek Rasputin" and "the most ruthless, unscrupulous, and ambitious person I'd met in thirty years in national politics."

Huffington is one of the creepiest entities on the elite scene. One of the sure signs that this country is socially corrupt at its core is that people like her continue to spread their poisonous egos without shame or contradiction.
