Who is Arianna Huffington?

Who is Arianna Huffington, the woman who would be governor of the state of California? Herein lies (almost), all you ever wanted to know about the articulate flip-flopping, handsome woman with the Greek accent, who lives in an estimated 7 million estate in Brentwood California. Would she make a better governor then the current embattled Gray Davis? I certainly think she would make a better governor then the (overly) popular Arnold Schwarzenegger, who has yet to spell out in any significant way his position on the problems vexing the state.

OK, no one said it, so I will say it.

Thank you for taking the time to get all the links together for this.

This kind of post is wonderful and says a lot more than the opinionated rants-w/o-facts we have been treated to next door.

I’m afraid any collection of Arianna links that ignores the stuff Matt Welch has turned up is woefully incomplete. Start at Hit & Run and follow the other links and you’ll see that Arianna has lied about her position on Prop. 187 and that her ex-husband considers her a “chameleon”. Given that he turned gay after living with her for ten years, that’s quite a statement.

Richard—

This post was never meant to be a “all you ever wanted to know about Arianna Huffington, but were afraid to ask” post. I just want to put forth a few “facts” about the women. I tried very hard to leave the speculation and innuendo where in belonged, in sports bar.

As far as her husband “turning” gay, I would submit that he probably was already gay, and just came out of the closet.
