Arianna, just shut up!

Imagine this scenario: Arianna Huffington is suggesting another prominent woman is offering commentary that is just too opinionated!

Even stranger is that the other woman, in this case, Virginia Thomas, wife of Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas, is heard from publicly, perhaps, one-thousandth as often as Huffington.

The priceless moment in media was captured for posterity by the "radio Equalizer" Brian Maloney.

"It's really strange, it's beyond strange, that you have the wife of a Supreme Court justice, not being against Obama, I can understand that, that's her legitimate right," Huffington said. "But saying utterly irrational things about Obama. I mean, calling the president a tyrant is truly beyond the realm of what is real, and that's really what we need to be addressing, not disagreements, not opposition, but just irrationality."

Irrationality?

The ultimate expose on the radical nature of our 44th president: "The Manchurian President: Barack Obama's Ties to Communists, Socialists and Other Anti-American Extremists." The best-seller as an audio book is also available.

Well, on that subject, I suppose, Arianna is something of an expert.

I don't say this as a stranger – but as someone who was once fairly close with Arianna. I knew her well when she was pretending to be a conservative.

What do I mean?

She now describes herself as a "progressive independent" who is "coming from the fourth dimension of political time and space." Whatever.

This is a woman who can say nothing of any meaning or consequence and get network news coverage. Furthermore, she never stops yapping.

And she offers up her Huffington Puffington Post to a parade of celebrity know-nothings to hurl accusations against public figures that make Virginia Thomas' acute observation pale by comparison.

How about this memorable moment from Huffington Puffington Post celebrity columnist Alec Baldwin: "[Vice President Dick] Cheney is a terrorist. He terrorizes our enemies abroad and innocent citizens here at home indiscriminately." Feigning an apology a few days later, Baldwin offered: "How about something more measured, then? How about … a lying, thieving Oil Whore. Or, a murderer of the U.S. Constitution?"

I could list for you dozens of similar screeds from her pack of sniping jackals, but most are little more than vulgarity- and obscenity-filled screeds.

And she picks a fight with Virginia Thomas – for being irrational?

Irrational?

Do you know what is irrational?

Becoming a disciple of various cult leaders – from Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh to Jolly John-Roger. That's what Arianna Huffington was and is.

She became a follower of the Indian guru Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh, whose cult practiced open sexual intercourse among its members and with its leader, as a central tenet of their faith. The cult is most famous for attempting to take over an Oregon town. The faithful purchased 139 white Rolls-Royces for their leader. A 2001 book, "Germs: Biological Weapons and America's Secret War," by New York Times reporter Judith Miller, revealed the cult spread potentially lethal salmonella bacteria in this town with the intent of infecting and incapacitating residents on Election Day so Rajneesh could win control of the local government.

From the Bhagwan, Huffington hooked up with John-Roger, founder of a New Age Movement of Spiritual Inner Awareness, based on "the Mystical Traveler, a spiritual consciousness that exists throughout all levels of God's creation." In 1994, one of John-Roger's disciples, Peter McWilliams, wrote "Life 102: What to Do When Your Guru Sues You," alleging he was brainwashed to write John-Roger's books with the promise he would be miraculously cured of AIDS. In the book, McWilliams wrote that Huffington had become a major financial backer of John-Roger and an ordained minister in his movement. McWilliams released a video of Huffington in a white robe being baptized by John-Roger.

From all appearances, Huffington's devotion to John-Roger continues to this day.

And she speaks to Virginia Thomas of irrationality?

Let me second Virginia Thomas' motion: Barack Obama is a tyrant. He exceeds his constitutional authority – if, indeed, he has any given he has never proven his constitutional eligibility for office.

Yes, Virginia, if this be irrational … make the most of it.

And, Arianna, my old friend, just shut up!
