Arianna on Morning Ho? Can she be any more condescending?

[babylonsister]

Just ugh. Speaking to Krista Friedland, who is trying to be reasonable, but Arianna isn't having any of it.

[polichick]

1. LOL - Arianna wasn't buying it because Krista made no sense...

...and she attacked Arianna from the get-go.

[babylonsister]

2. I've never seen Krista attack anyone, but whatever. nt

[polichick]

3. Yeah, bail when someone points out something you don't want to hear...

The second Arianna started to answer the opening question, Krista interrupted by saying it's easy to criticize. And then she kept interrupting when it was Arianna's turn to speak.

Take your blinders off for once.

6. LOL! Cute of you to defend Arianna; regardless of your perception of

Krista, Huffington still was and is very condescending.

Maybe if you removed your blinders you'd recognize that, but somehow I doubt it.

Whatever.

11. Arianna was CORRECT and RESPECTfUL. Krista was flailing and shilling. Sister, take off the

BLINDERS.

[polichick]

12. It stands to reason that if you could refute Arianna's position, you wouldn't have to resort to...

...character assassination. (And the same goes for the WH regarding Howard Dean.)

7. I'm with you...Krista was not being reasonable, she was just badgering.

Frankly, I don't see how any progressive can sit with that panel of right wing loons and not want to just slap the shit out of them.

4. I didn't see the exchange but it wouldn't surprise me.

Arianna can be absolutely insufferable at times.

5. Few people in the world can be as condescending as Arianna Stassinopoulos

She's had 40 years practice (it's about 40 years since she went to Cambridge University, and joined the Union Society, in which they learn to be condescending in debate).

8. I thought I was watching Saturday Night Live do a skit...

Bluffington Hoax is an embarrassment. I fully expect former-Repig Arianna to start swerving to the Teabaggers since the skewed Wall Street Journal poll had more people approving of them.

It actually got worse when Moron Joe was chiming in about how Obama is a secret Socialist and Big Eddie (another former-Repig) was chuckling right along with him. Mika interrupted their little lovefest to wink about a Sarah Palin fashion mistake coming up after the break.

I almost broke my TV.

9. I cannot watch that show any more

The regular cast of characters is bad enough. I have also become highly disenchanted with Arianna. She seems to be returning to her republican roots. HuffPoo has become virtually unreadable over the past year. Nothing but misleading headlines, tabloid trash, and stupid photo polls. They seem to be a vehicle for Politico.com junk, as well.

BTW, has anyone else seen the new Starbucks "Morning Joe" blend in their grocery store? I think I'll stick to Eight O'Clock...

10. What do you expect from someone that allows condescending and racist bullshit such as THIS to be

posted on her site?

I'm glad the HuffPo posters got their teeth into it and it turned out to be a big swift kick in the ass for her and an "oops" moment for HuffPo, just like when they got caught posting that Climate Change denier crap last year.
