Helen Thomas

She "retired".

Well, you know, she is like 900 years old.  And as I heard a union member say over the weekend about self-checkout lanes in stores "taking jobs" from someone else ... as a good progressive shouldn't she have retired back during the Wilson Administration to make room for someone else?  How many jobs has she taken from other people over the years?  Just askin'.

She had "apologized" over the weekend thus:
"I deeply regret my comments I made last week regarding the Israelis and the Palestinians."
Yeah, I'll bet you do!  Much the same way as you might regret breaking into a house after the rottweiller inside clamps your throat in its jaws.  Not really quite the same as an apology, per se.

By her logic, America is being occupied by … hell, everybody but “American Indians”. So we should all go back to Europe. And in her case, Lebanon. Or in the case of some of my co-workers, China, Ukraine, India, Iran, Iraq, Romania. And what do I do, Helen? I mean, I’m part Portuguese, German, Italian, and maybe even a little Irish and(*gasp!*) French in there.

Where do I go, Helen? Gonna chop me up into pieces?

Hmmm? When years old 900 YOU ARE, see how articulate are you at hiding disgusting Jew-hatred. Forced out of White House Press Corps, I am. Yes.
