Arianna Huffington can blow me
She's no friend to the left.

Wolf in sheep's clothing.

Prior to Shrub's term, she was always a conservative.... and for 8 years she was on the "side of good".



But now, I think she's a poser and not really with us.



Her performance on Larry King tonight is too contrarian. No person on the left side of the political aisle could have panned the speech that much.


Mildly disappointed, I could see... but she was echoing GOP talking points.




Fuck you, Arianna.

1. Seems to me she just calls it as she sees it
A cheerleader she ain't- unless there's something to cheer about.

2. i agree, considering she was on the right for so long
she should understand there are a lot of forces working against anything Obama and other progressives want to do.

3. She just did an interview for CBC TV here in Canada
I liked what she was saying. I didn't get a feeling that she was anything other than a progressive disappointed in Obama's performance.

But then again, she may tailor her "performance" for whatever audience she's in front of.

5. A.N.S.W.E.R.
I think there's a lot of that, especially when they pick up the GOP talking points and don't even realize they're doing it.

13. She's Being Ornery

I'm sure Markos Moulitsas will descend from the mountain tomorrow morning (if he hasn't alreayd tonight) and tell us all the ways that the SOTU speech was a huge failure. In fact, it was terrific.

I like Arianna - - a lot - - but I wish she would stop with the senseless, reflexive Obama criticism. It just doesn't serve any purpose.
