| 47. again, why won't you quote her accurately? didn't you just completely make up that OP? |

Edited on Mon Feb-14-11 10:58 PM by CreekDog
the fact that you wouldn't quote her means you are misleading here and when asked why you won't quote her accurately, you won't answer.
here's what she said:
(Maher asks her if there's any Republican she could vote for and she pauses)
"Well who knows who is going to be running in 2012?
(Maher then asks if there is any Republican alive that she would vote for)
"I don't know enough about Jon Huntsman who just stepped down as our ambassador in Beijing."
(Maher says "you won't vote for him")
Huffington says, "I'm not saying I would...you don't know if there are going to be third party candidates, i mean this is the time if unemployment stays over 9% anything can happen...although today we must give Obama credit, he was pitch-perfect. what he said about the need for genuine democracy, not just a state of affairs aligned with American interests, that was Obama at his best...other times when he speaks the wrong priorities: health care over jobs, debt over growth, nation-building in afghanistan over nation building at home, that's when he loses me."

She has been mainly anti-Obama for quite a while now. I'm not surprised. |
