She is a scammer.

Ariana Huffington was once the most darling of all Conservatives... until she got where she could do some damage.

Read the article.

She is a scammer.

How do we know she is a Conservative? Because she says she is. How do we know Obama is a Christian, because he and the Rev. Wright say he is.... and they are willing to swear to it on a stack of Bibles.

You failed tt answer my question. Do you know ANYTHING about Castle’s voting record? Let me educate you via Michelle Malkin. I seldom agree with Pissant on anything, but tonight he is correct: an axe murderer would be preferable to Castle:

AboutContactArchivesRSSColumnsPhotos Michelle Malkin Lead StoryThe DE Senate GOP primary: Castle, Soros & a health advisory
By Michelle Malkin • September 13, 2010 12:18 PM

On August 20, I endorsed Christine O’Donnell for the Delaware Senate GOP primary race. As I said on Sean Hannity’s TV show last week in repeating that endorsement, she is certainly far from perfect (who is?). But I think nine terms are enough for duck-and-hide, cap-and-tax liberal Republican Mike Castle — and it looks like GOP primary voters in Delaware are coming to the same conclusion as the primary looms tomorrow. I repeat: Entrenched incumbency is not an argument for more entrenched incumbency.

Castle’s campaign questions O’Donnell’s trustworthiness. GOP primary voters need to question Castle’s. He was just one of two Republicans to vote for the $26 billion Edujobs/BigGovJobs bailout a few weeks ago. He supported the TARP bailout that benefited many of his political donors. And he is the co-founder of the George Soros-tied Republican Main Street Partnership — which, as I reported in 2005, successfully pressured the House GOP majority to cave in to enviros on the ANWR drilling ban. The Republican Main Street Partnership PAC supports ACORN-friendly, Big Labor-backing, tax-and-spend, abortion radicals in GOP clothing like Dede Scozzafava.

This isn’t “Main Street.” This is the road to progressive hell. We already have one too many shady Soros Republicans in the Senate — and John McCain doesn’t need any more company.

As I noted a few weeks ago, the stakes are raised — not just for Delaware, but for the nation — in this race because this is a special election for VP Joe Biden’s Senate seat. The next Senator from Delaware will serve the remaining four years of Biden’s term. Which means he or she will be seated immediately after election and will be in place to vote in any lame duck Senate session. Cap-and-tax is on the table for this session. From his record and from his radical enviro associations, we know what Castle would do in the name of “Republican Main Street” values to screw over not only Delawareans, but all taxpayers.

Nine terms are enough.

Look, I think what many are saying including myself is that the article is a hit piece and cannot be trusted.

Mark Levin did some digging into the lawsuit O’Donnell filed and determined it had merit. In regards to financial troubles, is that now a disqualification for running for office? If so, only the Elite need run.

Is O’Donnell an unknown? To some extent, yes. Is Castle an unknown? No, I think it’s quite apparent what he is....A Republican in Name Only.

Ariana Huffington has nothing to do with this. Without question, hers is a unique situation.

The beautiful and so-desirable Ms Huffington was (reasonably I suppose) traumatized and p*ssed off to learn her erstwhile very eligible “conservative Republican” husband was *gay* - just 8 years after she married him!!

I mean holy carp. How truly destructive, it must be to learn such a thing.

That’s the sort of thing, which fundamentally changes people. In a single moment. Turns their world upside down.

If she had not turned with a vengeance on everything her “husband” had previously represented to her - with every bit of her soul, she would probably have sunk into a swamp of self-doubt and destructive anger.

IMHO if her husband hadn’t done that to her - she still would be on our side.

Perhaps if enough brave, strong willed GOP women join this new movement - she will again!

Stranger things have happened.

Ms Huffington, come back over. Just because your husband was gay, doesn’t mean you have to ally yourself with ... gays.

Wouldn’t it make more sense, to stand now for yourself? And for what is right. For real marriages, and real goodness? It would seem, your “husband” betrayed you. Most of us can relate to that. More perhaps than you know.

Let him help the gays over on the left. Seriously Ms. Huffington. Think about what you are doing. You joined, the wrong side.

Come over to the side of what is right!

Again. :)
