Actually, it's more that, in a recent opining for the Washington Post, talking about Jon Stewart's Rally to Restore Sanity, she's 180 degrees wrong about liberalism:
It’s bad enough that the only way to drum up enthusiasm for a “Rally to Restore Sanity” is to make it into a television comedian’s joke. But it’s far worse that the “moderates” in attendance will have been bused in by Arianna Huffington and organized by People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals. This is how words, and then ideas, vanish from our political lexicon: Whatever connotations it once had, the word “moderate” has now come to mean “liberal” or even “left-wing” in American politics.
OK, I read her as saying that "moderates" are "closet liberals." The reality is that most "liberals" are really "subversive moderates."
