Why should I? You were the one who opened the discussion up on Huffington....NOT on the issues she supported by how she manipulated the media and the public by deflecting attention away from her association with a notorious cult leader. I was responding to your comment. Indeed, it was me who FIRST introduced any semblance of a discussion of Huffington and issues that she was associated with when I talked about her hypocracy with global-warming and flying in private jets. > It may > open a whole new world to you.

She was so embarrassed by her hypocricy that she sold her SUV. Of course, she still flies around in private jets... > > btw, do you dis Ronald Reagan for being a former Democrat and union > leader? Why would I want to do that? Was he inconsistent with his positions the way that Arianna, whose claim to fame is on the back of her ex- multi-billionnaire-husband, has been? I just love these I-made-it-myself feminists who wouldn't be anywhere today if it weren't for the men they married. Apropos to another current thread on this forum, compare Arianna's silver-spoon-filled mouth with someone like Condoleeza Rice who is completely self-made. Huff isn't in the same ballpark.
