I've found 2 ways depending on the number of posts.
1) Copy and Paste for a small number
2) Export/Import (that's for all posts)
Turn off your SEO/Sitemap plugin before you do all of this (turn it on again later) because you don't want Google to see duplicate content.

marion if i do this, how do i get the links that i got out there now,to go to my new location for the articles. i am moving dog articles off lisasreview and putting on my dog site,.and i dont want page not found errors,just do not want duplicater erros either;]
thanks for the advice
will get hit with duplicate content penalty wont i?And my old links would come up page not found.
Also, Lisa, in the future if you decide to place ads to draw traffic to your site, to make each ad "unique" and, therefore, not deleted from the "duplicate ads not allowed" pile, simply use the name of the city for which you're placing the ad as the "first word" of the ad. Ex. an ad placed in New York, "Hey, New York, come to Lisa's website at....", the same ad in Detroit, "Hey, Detroit, come to Lisa's website at....". This way each ad is unique if you were placing the ads in each city, say at Adland.com or where ever you place the ad. I have the same ad 865 times in 865 cities, each ad being unique to the name of that city.
I found this link on google. It kind of sounds like what you're looking for.. Hope this helps!

You can copy/paste them to the new site. Lots of other stuff to do
1) Images must be transferred to media library on new site
2) Internal links 301-redirect (plugin simple 301 redirects)
on original site: From: /post title To: http://sitename/post title
This also takes care of posts that show in search results from search engine cache files
If you use categories on original site, you also must do the redirect with /category/post title to cat/xxxxx otherwise you will get a number of No Founds in Webmaster (which are really just annoying, but nothing to worry about)
Have fun. I did it with about 30 posts and took me 20 min per post.
Do one at a time and do the re -directs, then simply make the posts 'drafts' on the original site or trash 'em altogether.

thank you so much that is a lot of help, i downloaded that plugin,and i was wondering how that would work. I had totaly forgot about pictures. 30 posts x 20 minutes=10 hours?wow,lots of work.good job on that. I got quite a few to look forward to.
the 301 redirect plugin is very simple and easy
Open it up and you see 2 fields
The one on the left is where you enter /post title
The one on the right you enter the whole new URL, i.e.:
www or htttp:// (whatever your site is) websitename/post title
SAVE
That's it. When someone clicks on your post from search it automatically sends the person to your new site.
Google/Yahoo crawl your site and see the re-direct, so there is no chance of duplicate content either.
Images is taking the most time. They are not 'physically' inside your post, rather reside in the media library and are accessed when post/page is accessed. So, you must upload the images to new site and re-insert.
