O'Lielly: Huffington a "Nazi"

Bill O'Lielly is at it again - this time calling Arianna Huffington a "Nazi" and wondering aloud the difference between what the Germans did in the 1920s and 1930s and what blogs in America are doing today.

First off, and I've mentioned it many times - anyone who has to bring up Nazi Germany to make a political point has lost that political point. Period. I think now we can all finally agree - Nazi Germany has officially become the Titanic of political clichés.

You know what O'Lielly really hates about the Internet? That he's no longer free to simply make stuff up and have it believed by the masses. The Internet, and the blogosphere, are both equalizers to the propagandistic, intolerance-infested network that is State TV Fox News.

A major hat tip is due to Crooks & Liars, one of the best liberal political sites on the Web, for putting together this video, including the footage at the end that points out how BOR's Website contains just as much hate-filled tripe (and probably a great deal more) than The Huffington Post does. Let's face it, Bill - you're tried this trick before - whining and harping about a few comments on her site.

A site like Huffington's can't possibly moderate every single comment on every single day, especially considering the hundreds of articles and thousands of comments the site must surly receive.

By the way, what's to stop hacks from Fox News from putting the incriminating comments on Huffington's site? The answer is... probably nothing. Honestly, how long would it take to sign up for a Web-based e-mail address, then sign up for an account on HuffPo? Probably under 10 minutes.

It's not like there's not a precedent, either. After all, Faux News employees got busted for posting flattering information about State TV on Wikipedia last year.
