Giuliani v. Huffington: "Down goes Arianna! Down goes Arianna!"
— Russ from Winterset

Via Allah"Big Pimpin' with the Phat Blog Cash"pundit from Hot Air, here's an exchange on "Morning Joe" between Rudy & Zsa Zsa Huffington. A bit like a "Ivory Coast National Guard Reserves vs. US Marine Recon" deathmatch, but like many of my particular political persuasion, I will NEVER turn away from watching Arianna take a verbal beating. Hell, it gets so bad towards the end that I was half expecting Zsa Zsa to say something positive about ferrets.

(you know what, I think I need to thank AP for introducing me to the old Rudy bit from his call in show. Either he or Ace brought it to my attention originally, and it just keeps getting funnier every time I hear it.)

The part where Ariana wanted to talk about Rudy's Presidential run, and Rudy then mentioned Ariana's run for the California Governorship, deserves special mention.

Ariana really, really doesn't like getting stung like that.

15 Isn't she someone who is not a native born American but who married some rich dude, got her citizenship that way and got bored so decided to start a website.  I know, I know, the accent gets them every time.

Personally, think the woman is a total idiot.

Posted by: curious at April 06, 2010 07:02 PM (p302b)

16 Every so often, Scarborough comes through, and he's good when he does, though he still missed a few really easy spots that he should have nailed that wench to.  Rudy, as usual, shows he has class and intelligence.

I always liked Rudy, though he had a couple of positions that really rub me the wrong way, like Romney.  But, Rudy is exactly the sort of person we need in our government.  Very much like our modern day Cincinnatus, Dick Cheney.

Good jobs by both Rudy and Joe.  I give Mort a pat on the head for his contribution.

P.S.  Arianna is no Zsa Zsa.

A website that has no advertising that I've ever seen, or visible method of even trying to make money.  What's up with that?  Didn't vanity publishing of this sort (some tens of millions a year in staff) used to be considered rather gauche?

Why does no one call HuffPo a vanity publishing operation - to distinguish it from sites and companies that actually TRY to make money, or at least appear so?

Isn't that quite odd?

Just spit out exactly what you want to say.  It's a question of citizenship, as it is with The Precedent.  The argument of the Founders' IDEAS (do you see that?  "IDEAS") on allegiance are to illustrate their thoughts in CITIZENSHIP as expressed in the terms laid down in the Constitution, which is the law.  "Natural born citizen" is a class of citizenship, whose membership requirements can be ascertained by reading IDEAS of allegiance that the Founders had otherwise expressed, as they had assumed knowledge of that term and THAT is the definition of it in the document.

So, address Rudy with respect to the citizenships he's held, and say exactly what you want without forcing ME to have to do this work because you are having problems holding up the silly side of an important argument.

Posted by: progressoverpeace at April 06, 2010 07:16 PM (N49h9)

37 And, to commemorate Ariana's loss to Rudy, I think that from now on, every Republican, Conservative, Independent or Libertatian politician or candidate, when part of a televised "event" with Ariana, should make every attempt to get Ariana to say "hots cakes" on TV.

You know what, I just went over there and they have ads up now.  They must have just gone up within the last month or two, because I have never seen any ads there, before.

I wonder if there's any way to find when they started accepting advertising?

Posted by: progressoverpeace at April 06, 2010 07:27 PM (N49h9)

48 I found this article (http://adage.com/mediaworks /article?article_id=137437) about the HuffPo and advertising.  It doesn't address the issue of not having any, but delves into other interesting problems, there.  And I remember that HuffPo just took 100 million in capital from someone - which is when I noticed that there were no ads on the site initially, and every time until now.

I think, if you look at an old HuffPo page on a search, you can see that there were no ads.  I just checked one out, like this (http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2010/ 02/07/ walter-shapiro-why-i-wont_n_452630.html) and you can see what I was talking about.

Some years ago on some obscure cable outlets, there was such a thing as "National Empowerment Television", or NET.  It was supposed to be conservative/Republican TV.  They frequently had a hard time filling all their broadcast hours with anything good, but sometimes it was interesting.

It was founded by Paul Weyrich, and there were other conservative commentators on their, including......(drum roll)....Arianna Huffington!.

At that time (in the mid -90's), Arianna was still married to Samuel Huffington, who I think helped bankroll NET; hence, Arianna got to host several of the talk shows (Gergen was on there a lot, too. Echh!).

I actually got to call in and talk to Bob Dole in '95 before his ill-fated Presidential run. And I got the commemorative NET coffee cup to prove it!

So somewhere, sometime, Arianna really went off the rails.  My guess is that when she divorced Sam and got a big slice of dough, she could then indulge all her silly intellectual vanities (like fellating Bill Maher), and go way left and be popular with all the cool kids in LA and California.

G. Gordon Liddy was one of the first to be on to her sea-change, and started to really cut her up about '97 or '98, therabouts.

But she was and is still pretty stupid, I think. I mean she married a gay guy. Not that there is anything wrong with that.

70 I was incorrect on the ads, but not totally crazy about HuffPo. I found this article (Huffington Post Burn Rate: $1M A Month, 100 Employees):

"I don't read the Huffington Post - and neither should you - but I found this article that discusses their business finances quite interesting having a background in the dot com era. Estimations are that the Huffington Post has enough funding

to last a little more than a year and is burning $1 million a month with a staff of 100.

The Huffington Post is not a membership based website, nor e-commerce pumping out products like Amazon, it is a multi-user blog pawning itself off as a legitimate magazine. However, with only revenue coming from advertising - and knowing the numbers having been online for years - there is absolutely no way that looking at their website they could possibly be generating $1 million per month to simply break even.

74 Huffington Post likely exists to supplant Air America, the epically-failed progressive outlet. Yeah, it probably does lose money, but that's not its real purpose. It exists to perpetuate progressive ideology but more economically than Air America ever could given the infrastructure and assets required to finance a radio presence.

From an ideological POV, if the capital burn rate is manageable, the ROI is worth the loss if the well-heeled and ego-stroking Liberati can propagandize.

I figure HuffPo is more of a loss leader. Profits would be nice, but it isn't everything.

Exactly.  So, why does no one ever talk about that, especially when addressing Ariana? 

Of course, I understand that there is capital growth in the value of the brand, but I've never even seen any estimates of that.  It's might be a lot, but I don't think Arianna's smart enough to make this argument for a while.

I think her defense is that she didn't pay most of her bloggers, or something

80 curious,

I don't think it was originally designed to start out that way. Huffington just wanted to be a player and, being an attention whore with her own husband's money to burn, decided that the internet would be one way to do it. It was a natural conduit for the libero-progressive perspective and had a lot of its own money starting out so that it could survive growing pains just as free-flowing internet money was drying up. Also, it had the Hollywood core of contributors, so an innate audience was built in.

Is it a legitimate news site? Eh. It covers events and has progressive slants. Legitimate is a relative term. Compared to Media Matters? Sure. Compared to something else? Hard to say. The stories can surely be non-ideological, but the contributions and commentary? That's a whole different beast.

Plus, look at its head. Would you say Huffington is a legitimate source of material? That's who is ostensibly guiding it if you actually believe she has the cranial capacity to be anything other than rubberstamper and financier.

Good for Joe Scarborough for putting her in her place.

It was fun to watch Mica squirm.

87 Hard as it is to believe, Arianna is not quite as stupid as one would believe.
At Cambridge she was president of the debating society.  She also wrote a pretty good biography of Maria Callas, which I read about 20 years ago. 

I don't know why or how she turned into such a shallow provocateur.  I find her quite boring, predictable and annoying in her current incarnation as liberal nutcase.

"Her opponent was Victor Davis Hanson."

Holy fuck, is there a video link or a transcription somewhere?  I'd pay to watch that. 

In addition to the sheer juiciness of watching this pretentious cumdunt getting her ass handed to her, watching VDH put the hurt on a Greek chick
is just poetic.

93 Ariana... is she popular with the left because she talks with a ridiculously heavy accent (that people would easily be done with after speaking proper english for years unless they were fakers)?

Why does the left love the dumb exotic stuff like this?  Obama had so little to vault him to the presidency, except that it was historical and inspiring.  Why was it so historical?  Because people care about race?  OK, even I felt it was good for the country.

But at some point, it gets really old to see yet another person who really doesn't deserve to be listened to, aside from their ethnic novelty.

Down Goes Huffy?!

At least THAT fight (Frazier/Foreman) went two rounds! This was more like Tyson/Spinks!

Huffy's on the mat and done at the 91 second mark, or, maybe you could say it was like what Tyson/Spinks would turned into if the ref hadn't stopped it at the 91 second mark.

Get a mop, 'cause Rudy turned Huffy into a stain...

By her own admission, Arianna Huffington married a man already knowing in advance that he was a homosexual. What does that say about her judgment and her character?

The woman is certainly a flake, if not a psycho. She doesn't have any credibility on any issue. She is just a bitchy gossip and a blowhard.

She likes Obama because they're two of a kind, a pair of empty suits.

The left adores ridiculous accents and social climbers. But more than that, they love to make fun of Republican politicians who preach family values and then turn out to be gay. Arianna Huffington has all that going on for her.

Surprised to find he was the editor of drudge,  since his site  has taken off then maybe that is why drudge's site is not the same anymore.

Only if you can somehow managed to be "disenfranchised" over not being able to see Iron Man II, and more importantly find someway to blame the Bush Administration for the whole thing.

Then your all set, you'll get your liberal starter pack in the mail in about 3-4 weeks.  The starter pack includes 5 race cards, you can order more of course but that will give you a few to play while your waiting for your replacement order to arrive.

The starter pack also includes a guide on spending other peoples tax dollars in frivolous and outlandish ways, a handy quick reference chart on how to spot homophobes (it's pretty easy really, it's anyone that doesn't agree with you politically), and a bunch of full color charts and graphs proving that every idiotic political agenda you support somehow "helps the children:".

You'll also get a free pair of berkenstocks and a complete listing of all of the moonbat protests scheduled in your local area so you can attend them instead of wasting your time at the movies.

137 BTW - Rudy is a perfect anti-Alinsky, defeat Cloward-Piven leader. They can't pigeon hole him and make a caricature. If the left is going to go full Alinsky, we are going to have to expect future candidates to be "quirky" and "unpredictable" - the right will have to ignore the small stuff, like going in drag to a TV show, and vote on results and actual policy. Let the progressives deal the magician's wand in his right hand, while his left hand is getting things done.

She sucked in "Green Acres".  I mean, she was such a selfish bitch!...wait..that wasn't her?   Ohh, that's right!  She was the woman who married that openly gay man in California to obtain citizenship.  Doesn't that make her a prostitute?   But they had children together you say..well, who fathered them?  Let's ask Andrew Sullivan, the famous amateur gynecologist!
