Can I propose right now that any editorial from that site is prohibited on this site?

This woman has become criminally silly over the past several years. Do we have a date on when she officially went off the reservation (assuming she was ever genuinely on it).

This thing has the same stench of death as Air America. It will be fun to watch it fail.

Let me guess: Puffington gets to decide who the most creative minds in the country are.

The Co-chair of the losers convention is out from under her rock again! She must be talking to McLame.

I give it 5 days before the interactive participation is shut down. This includes massive censorship of a DUmmie scale.

I don't think it'll be completely shut down. They'll probably just lure some mods over from DU to clean up the "offensive" (conservative) posts.

I'm disappointed that people like David Frum and Tony Blankely are signing onto this thing, giving it credibility it doesn't deserve. Clearly the only function they'll serve is as punching bags for the loony left posters and "columnists." And if they're too effective in making their points, they'll be quietly dumped (this may happen anyway after a few weeks).

This is going to be DU with celebs... I also bet the comments will be turned off quick. It will already be wacked out, with comments the whole truth would be out. But we can hope . It would be fun to flame a famous Rat once a month.....

She was conservative when her Huffington husband was a Republican. His coming out coincided with her newfound liberalism.

Ann Coulter suggests Huffington is whoring with the Liberals now (my phrase) because she is terrified about all the withering ridicule she would've gotten from the Left about her husband leaving her for men. By ingratiating herself with these slime she protects herself from ridicule.

I agree. It will be "interactive" for about a week. After that, they will either "cherry pick" the comments or bar them all together. This addition to the blogosphere will have a shorter shelf life than a bottle of Scotch in Ted Kennedy's house.

"This has all the sincerity of Chairman Mao's 'Let one thousand flowers bloom.'"

Very appropriate quote considering the media weenies/whores (commies) who are enlisted into this venture. So, when does the betting pool on its lifespan begin?

"...Then it will just be some Drudge clone with the worthless opinion of Hollywood actors."


Actually not, Drudge has some facts.....

This is more like an invitation-only DUmmie Forum for snob elite Leftists, not the garden-variety schlub common drone Useful Idiot DUmmies....

Laura Ingraham is going to have some fun with this. It's like one-stop-shopping for fresh material. LOL

I can hear the sarcastic music selections now.

Cool! This will give Norman Mailer a chance to start another wasted career in another medium.
