I am using WP 3.4. My problem occurs when I attempt to copy and paste anything into the post or page editor of WordPress. The situation arises every time I save or attempt to preview the post. The post gets truncated and about 65% of the text gets chopped off the end of the post. This does not happen if I manually enter content into the text box and then preview or save it.
This works well on my other WP site but not this new install. I have used text editors to strip out formatting. I have also used the text editor copy and paste feature within WordPress but nothing works.
Here’s some background. I first installed WordPress 3.4 through Bluehost. That's when I discovered the problem. I then reinstalled WP through BlueHost. This did nothing to resolve the issue. I then downloaded WordPress and uploaded it to BlueHost but the problem still exists.
I tried using the 20/10 theme. Then I tried using the Genesis Framework theme. I also tried using the Genesis Framework with the Prose child theme. The problem would occur each and every time. I should note here that all plugins are turned off while attempting to create a post.
I did not link to the site as it is under construction and the only post available was manually entered into the text editor and saved which does not cause a problem.
Here is an example of what happens. I copy this text into the text box.

The fact that these listings were being featured by Google for local searches made them extremely useful. If your local website was having problems, ranking in the organic results this was a godsend.
In the early days just claiming or setting up a listing got your business onto the first page of the Google results. It was often a one and done situation for many small business owners.
With little or no effort, you could easily land on the first page of the Google results in most markets. Moreover, this wasn’t always true for many websites trying to get onto Google results front page.

This is what is left after I save or preview it.

It also occurs with much smaller posts as well.
I have been working on this problem for about a week and could use any help available.
