It certainly is clear that huffpo WILL NOT let a comment thru that in any way mentions the Bilderberg Group. I just tried twice today and, even with chopping the word up and mangling it to avoid the robot censor, they appear to have caught it.

Having huffpo tout itself as a liberal blog is a bit like the police practise of having a 'good cop'. Very devious.

For those with long memories, Arianna started out as a Republican.

This woman grates on my ears- even with the volume muted. Just her lips moving is enough to know she is thinking about how wonderful she thinks she is, even if she is talking about something else.

Well Arianna, you made a lot of money off the citizen journalists who were chumps enough to blog for your site. $200 million if I recall. How much did they get of that? Oh, right ... nothing. You'll pardon me if I don't believe a word you say, ripoff artist.

What you are getting if you read the Huffington Post is a highly filtered, highly dogmatic and insupportably thin-skinned "Politically Correct" passel of one-way ideology. I knew they were Liberal, but now see they will not tolerate a different opinion. In the Huffington Post, journalism has, indeed, reached a New Low.

The Huffington Post is an utter fraud. They want to appear as a modern thoughtful source of journalism, and open up their "news" topics to comment. Only one problem. If you say something that does not fit in with their biased "progressive" Liberal views, they remove your comments and BAN your acct! No reason given. So much for free speech. So much for the Constititution. So much for Journalism!!! (and fyi, all my comments were reasoned and legitimate, with no profanity or blatant rudeness).

Citizen Journalism all the way, everyone should be more involved in what's going on in the nation. There is no need for all the hate on Arianna since she's a strong and powerful woman. This country needs more like her.
