The Huffington Post's Swift Antics
The American Spectator ^ | 6/28/06 | David Holman

Posted on 06/27/2006 9:52:14 PM PDT by HoldFast

Some readers of HuffingtonPost.com have initiated a new wave of harassing phone calls to Swift Boat veterans who questioned John Kerry's military record in the 2004 campaign -- and the website's proprietors remained ignorant of it for days, despite repeated complaints.

Last Saturday morning, HuffPost, Arianna Huffington's year-old online effort, linked to a story regarding the release of Navy personal information. By Saturday afternoon, two registered "trusted" HuffPost commenters posted the names and personal information of more than a dozen Swift Boat veterans. "SatanLivesinUSA" wrote at 2:15 p.m., June 24, "SwiftBoatVets who need some Black Ops done on them. I have some very good ideas I gleaned from 'CIA BOOK of DIRTY TRICKS' Don't get mad, get EVEN." Minutes later, at 2:19 p.m., "YvonneMoorhead" repeatedly pasted SatanLivesinUSA's comments on that page and on another Huffington Post post. Elsewhere, in February, YvonneMoorhead had posted, "F*** em, they died for the greater Isreali [sic] goal of stealing more land by having its proxy America invade Iraq and next Iran. They are not called Masters of Deceit for nothing." Aside from one or two complaints, fellow commenters did not object to the posting of the information or the threats.

The bottom line is that the Left would gleefully embrace a colossal American defeat if it meant they would regain power.

The hypocrisy of the people has no bounds, and their unquenchable thirst for power will be what dooms them. What they lack is the idea that what's best for America comes first.

In their narrow little world, the purse strings of power is first and foremost, National Security is not on their top ten list,l in fact, National Security is nothing more than a bargaining chip for people like Bill Clinton and Madeline Albright when dealing with a Dog eating scum bag like Kim Jong Ill

The Swiftboat Vets drive the libs absolutely INSANE. They realize that they're one of the major reasons Kerry lost the election. He couldn't rebound.

Pat Buchanan said it best when he called the Swiftvets, "The Guns of August."

We can't let these men down.

Swift Vets and POWs for Truth

They stood up for truth. We must stand up for them.

To: doesnt suffer fools gladly

It must be terrifying for the leftists to realize, that the Swift Boat Veterans for Truth could raise $20 million within weeks if the need arose....

An every freaking dollar would be spent in ads attacking the "heroes" of the left......

Oh the horror....Oh the agony of defeat, again...

Sending money to the Swiftees was the best spent money of my life....and the most effective.

Semper Fi

Never liked her when she claimed Repub status. . .but now she is intolerable.

Her voice, while not pleasant. ..remains the least of her problems. She is absolutely a DAD - always obnoxious - Liberal.

As are those who follow her empty stream of reasoning. . .'so-called'. . .

Huffington is an ignorant cow. Only a buffoon like Kerry would want to slip her the linguini.

How many times has the Greek socialist lost badly?

The Greek commies were defeated. She was exiled to the safe haven of US socialism and hatched a plan to ruin the Republican Party.

She married a homesexual and blackmailed him into running for office, thus penetrating the Republican Party. When he lost trying to win the senate seat she outed him and he had to show his true liberal stripe. So she divorced him, took the money, changed her conservative stripe, moved to Washington to hobnob with other commies and went on the speakers circuit.

That was a decade ago. She wrote a book got a facelift and kinda dropped out save for the occasional talk show when the libs are hurting for a mouthpiece.

Now she is relegated to a DUmmie website?

I know there are some things that fit between these paragraphs.

I bet she has advertising on that Ariachnid Huffington site.

"By Saturday afternoon, two registered "trusted" HuffPost commenters posted the names and personal information of more than a dozen Swift Boat veterans."

"Yes, indeed- John Kerry thinks it's 1971 all over again. Dec 04 '05, on "Face the Nation"
John Kerry once again slams American troops- Check it out-

"And there is no reason, Bob, that young American soldiers need to be going into homes of Iraqis in the dead of night, terrorizing kids and children, you know, women, breaking sort of the customs of the-of-the historical customs, religious customs."

Click Here for the transcript for "Face the Nation"

You will find this statement at the bottom of page 4 and the top of page 5.

Trash. That's all they are.

And as far as that Airhead Huffington is concerned, all I can say is it's no wonder her ex turned gay.

Airheadanna is trying to find a home. First she tried by marrying a millionaire Republican (actually a RINO) and now after some kind of "revelation" is seeking acceptance with the diehard left. Admit it now everybody, wouldn't you love to have her in your corner and get to defend all the "off the wall" statements she makes?

Something about that woman isn't right. A woman who started out as a prominent conservative spokesperson doesn't just lose their entire philosophical id just like that....She's too far gone left to heve ever been for real.

Thanks for giving the history of this Socialist from her days in Greece to the present. You hit all the highlights of her "career". And though we find them all very disgusting, she is too lame to understand. She is happy to be home with the Effete Elite Intellectuals..
