The Youngest Gabor Sister

We've all been breathlessly anticipating it, and now it's finally here: Arianna Huffington's celebrity blog, which fills that previously immense void of celebrities willing to share their insights on American political arcana.

Of course, on launch day you want to make an impression, so Arianna has rolled out the big guns for the kick-off.

Among the opening salvos: the illustrious Brad Hall (otherwise known as Mr. Julia Louis-Dreyfus, vaguely remembered for a spectacularly unspectacular stint as "Weekend Update" host on SNL for about ten minutes in the mid-80's--often confused with the equally unmemorable Gary Kroger) opines on gay marriage, Ellen Degeneres blogs, believe it or not, on the policies of the Bureau of Land Management, and Larry David....'s wife weighs in on hybrid cars or something.

Of course, this is the big roll-out, so it would be unfair to expect a lineup of this caliber every day. But still, it's quite promising. This could could be a greater source for highly-rated material on the Unintentional Comedy Scale than has ever previously existed.

In the meantime, I'll just be sitting here waiting for that entry from Jason Alexander's college roommate.
