Senile old liberal bitch reporter Helen Thomas has retired because she spoke her true feelings to the wrong person. This should have happened years ago. After this last racist tirade, the White House "rebuked her" and she stepped down.
NOBODY should still be claiming to be a journalist at age 90, especially when you can take one look at the woman and think she is coming from an episode of Hoarders. She was ugly when she was younger, but assuming that there is someone out there who actually cared for this old hag on a personal level, they should have stepped in and explained the concepts of "growing old gracefully" and "knowing when to bow out gracefully". I would never have let my grandmother be mocked in public for her appearance.

Helen Thomas retires
In the world of political journalism, it's the end of an era: Helen Thomas has retired just months shy of her 90th birthday.
The longtime White House journalist has covered ever president since Dwight Eisenhower and broke several barriers for female journalists but stepped down from her latest role -- a columnist for Hearst Newspapers -- in the wake of controversial remarks made in late May about the need for Jews to "get the hell out of Palestine" and return to Poland and Germany.
"Helen Thomas announced Monday that she is retiring, effective immediately," read a statement from Hearst Newspapers on Monday. "Her decision came after her controversial comments about Israel and the Palestinians were captured on videotape and widely disseminated on the Internet."
Thomas said in a statement that, "I deeply regret my comments I made last week regarding the Israelis and the Palestinians. They do not reflect my heart-felt belief that peace will come to the Middle East only when all parties recognize the need for mutual respect and tolerance. May that day come soon.’’
The decision to retire came as Thomas faced rebuke from nearly every corner after video of her remarks during an interview with RabbiLive.com's Rabbi David Nesenoff emerged online late last week.
"Those remarks were offensive and reprehensible," Gibbs said during the Monday briefing, adding that Thomas's remarks "do not reflect certainly most of the people here and certainly not those of the administration." Thomas did not attend Monday's briefing and journalists, perhaps sensing the closing of an era, were spotted taking pictures of Thomas' empty front row.
Over the weekend, Thomas' agency dropped her as a client and a high school that had asked Thomas to speak at its commencement ceremony revoked the invitation. Such political bigwigs as Dana Perino, Ari Fleischer, Rep. Rick Lazio, Lanny Davis and Joe Lockhart denounced Thomas' remarks, as did many Jewish organizations.
During Thomas' fifty-seven years as a correspondent for United Press International, Thomas earned a reputation as a tough questioner willing to put the feet of politicians to the fire, while simultaneously becoming a whipping boy for conservatives who objected to her liberal viewpoints and, later, for her privileged position within the White House press corps (the middle seat in the front row was -- first by protocol and then by mandate -- designated for Thomas). She became the first female officer of the National Press Club as well as the first female member of the White House Correspondents Association and the Gridiron Club. When UPI was acquired by News World Communications, Inc. in 2000, Thomas resigned from the organization and later joined Hearst Newspapers as a columnist, where she covered national affairs.

You're way too kind in your description of her.

She's like a Leftist cornerstone... I heard that her agent immediately dropped her along with her publisher and everyone else she knows. She finally said out loud what a lot of Democrats secretly think. They had to drop her like a hot potato. Hillarious...

From the Democrat political playbook:
Democrat Rule # 1: "If it moves, tax it; if it keeps moving, regulate it; if it stops moving, subsidize it."
Democrat Rule # 2: Don't criticize the Israelis and Jews...at least not in public anyway.

Another doozie from Helen earlier this year...
Helen Thomas: "Obama’s Not A Liberal, I Am – As Far Left As You Can Go"

I am sick right now, and the codeine has a dampening effect on my vitriol. I hate her with every fiber of my being. Like Miss Clairol and Mabelline and whore red lipstick could ever improve the appearance of that nasty bitch. Her presence has been a canker sore on the face of the White House press room for YEARS. Her writing was second rate hackish liberal spew.
SO I wonder now who will fight to take her seat, literally?

What a beauty!!! She reminds me of the other popular fem-NAZI scum out there...

It sure it nice to see all that respect for elders and those good Christian values being represented in here.

I've always liked her, especially when she shot lightning at Luke Skywalker.

Its very Christian like to tell the truth.
She is a bitch. She is ugly. Karma is a bigger bitch. All truth.
Besides - an eye for an eye.....

She is a public figure that was intentionally devisive - she used the so-called power of the press to further the national agenda that she had decided was the correct one. If I were forced to be in a room with her, I would be polite, as I was raised to be. But I would not go beyond the bare minimum of civility required. I don't think I owe her anything more than that. I despise the woman.

Elders do not always deserve respect. Consider Adolf Hitler, Benito Mussolini, Idi Amin, Mao Zedong, Slobodan Milosevic, Pol Pot, Josef Stalin, Bill Clinton and Jimmy Carter…
Your personal interpretation of Christian values likely differs from most Christians, but thanks for sharing!

Random fact of the day: You can win an Election in Alabama by stating you have Christian values.

Check that..."Conservative" Christian values. (And at some point in your ad you must be holding a gun.)

Well, right or wrong that strategy does still appeal to a LOT of voters especially in the South and Midwest...but you're going to get me started on another anti-Huckabee rant...those are best left in The SGA. I would not want to frighten anyone out here.
-

Yeah... I bet those bad old Conservative Christians are making life miserable for everyone over there. Now, if you folks would only elect a flaming homosexual who worships trees, hates capitalism and cheats on his taxes, it would set that backwards, hee-haw, hick-state of yours down the right path. Y'all need some of that modern, progressive enlightenment an-schit...

Sir, sir...you need to take that baited, merry-go-round political banter back to The SGA before you frighten and confuse these folk. Or you cause an Admin to exercise his Powers. And put out that cigar too.

Admins...wack his pee pee.

PEE PEE!

Comments on teh FaceSpaces...
There is no difference between her and the bloody terrorist who plants bombs, both are despicable and follow the same mental pattern. We should always be aware of who are our enemies and finally learn the difference between being nice and being stupid.
Helen isn't a 90 yr old woman filled with contempt & hatred for Israel...her toxic sentiments have been brewing & spewing for years . It amazes me how someone can be "respected" for her vile comments & tainted, biased "journalism" for so long.
What a stupid, corrupt and horrendous woman she is.
What an intolerable witch!
She represents the worst of the left-liberal establishment media, and she should have retired years ago. Her disgraceful display of anti-Jewish vitriol exposes her for the nasty old crone she is. She will not be missed.

I don't claim Christianity or believe anything Israel has to say. They lie, therefore they need to be put down like a rabid possum. And that too will very soon pass.

Details to be revealed after Israel is turned to glass. Hitler was a sicko but knew how to deal with people very effectively. His policies continue today in many countries to include Israel and US foreign policy.

Two observations.
One, Helen looks like a Jew herself.
Two, it tickles me that Wes had the temerity to put 'respect your elders' in a post. If that translates into pounding the shit out of cougars on vacation in FL....
I really can't stop giggling.

I respect the hell out of each forty-something to whom I administer a donkey-punch.
My comment was more of a jab at Tarheel and GarMan because they always raise hell about the disrespectful youth of America and the lack of good Christian values in modern society.

That's very disrespectful of you.
Damn yutes.
Get the hell off of my lawn!
And turn that damn music down!
And stop throwing those beer cans into the back of my truck!
And save some Jaeger for someone else next time!
No respect!

Yeah... I think you're just confused. Many times, the yutes are just wet-behind-teh-ears and have very limited experiences or knowledge to establish any reasonable conclusion or opinion on a particular topic. They're limited to what they've been told by their leftist collij professors or PC-cleansed information pushed by teh lamestream media (aka DNC-TV). My rants related to Christian "values" are more about the Christian-bashing and the immediate-and-automatic discrediting of a person's position which might have been established based on a person's religious values. There are kooks on all sides of the religious debate, but I don't automatically discredit your opinions because you're a non-believer. So, thanks for playing and enjoy the buffet...

Hitler was a total moron. Ignorant to the fullest extent. Couldn't finish grade school. Couldn't make it as an artist. Refused to work. Inherited (via luck and thug tactics) the most powerful machine in the history of the world and drove it into the ground in less than ten years.
He had no clue how to deal with people.

Not a bad interpretation there but "think" is rendered incorrectly; probably due to my language skillz. "And some people on the Tigers-X Forum Board think that I am a National Socialist!". I meant it as more of a self-deprecating remark to some of my hard right political views and less as an indictment of your statement.
Libertarian pagan, eh? That's rather aphoristic.

Yea, I don't think we should be support Israel in any form. The main reason we were supposedly attacked by Arabs on 9-11 was our support of Israel. The UN and AIPAC should be deported.
