Given the crap that CBS and the NY Times pulled, the WH press office should move their seats to the back row also..
Your "heart is breaking" over a few snarky comments you read on the Internet? Heaven forfend you should actually suffer real tragedy in your life or somebody else's life.
Our troops are in harm's way every day in the Middle East, and unfortunately a few are murdered too often to suit me. We lost over 3000 of our friends and neighbors in New York on 9/11 due to the actions of evil misguided men. Where is your fricking outrage about THAT?
It is frightening to me to think that you are all thinking these kinds of remarks are worthy of posting and worse -- that your posts are funny.
Actually, they are hilarious. Helen Thomas is a public figure and has thrust herself into the political debate willingly. She's a dried-up, poisonous old battleaxe who should have been put on mandatory Thorazine suppositories 15 years ago.
It would be one thing to criticize Helen Thomas for things she has said or done -- things she had control over, things that were a matter of personal choice on her part.
Uh, didn't this thread (and every other Helen Thomas thread for that matter) start off with exactly that? She has the choice whether or not to write the journalistic equivalent of raw sewage, and she gets paid very well to do it. She is fair game for the response she receives as a result.
But to slay this woman for her appearance seems to me cruel beyond belief. She can't HELP how she was born.
Nobody is being "slain" in this thread, and your nonsensical hyperbole betrays you. Take your finger-wagging and your bleeding heart elsewhere and get off my FreeRepublic.
Bush had a dream he woke up beside her and chewed his arm off.
I think she bores the President. Off you go now, Helen.
Helen is enough to send ANYONE screaming into the night.
Oh, this is hilarious!! I needed this laugh. After fighting off some flu-like thing over the last couple of days, this was just what the doctor ordered.
No, Helen....like most people, he just doesn't like you.
Get out of here! What a waste of money!

Now, there's an idea!!!
Witch.
I would need to use the "memory wipe" device from Men in Black after having met her, but that doesn't constitute being afraid of her. I just happen to like sleep and don't want to have nightmares.
My sympathies for the President - it's too bad he can't face her blindfolded.

Everytime I see HELEN I have to HURRY and strap on my HURL HARNESS.
LOL!!!
Is this the woman that volunteered for the first full face transplant?
I know how she feels. Back in 1990 I wrote to Micheal Jordan telling him I wanted to go one-on-one with him for all the marbles. Everything.
He never even responded. Cause see, he's afraid of me!!!

I don't understand it either Helen, you are such a man magnet.
When?
Was she on her knees looking up at him when she allegedly asked this?
Just kidding--she looks like one of those trees in The Wizard of Oz. "How'd you like it if someone stole YOUR apples!"
If you look at her in the face, you will turn to stone.
I would be afraid as well.
