Arab Bashing Reaches Low With Thomas Slur

Ann Coulter, a loudmouthed, mean-spirited, pro-Bush columnist

If the Arabs don't like Ann, that makes her even better in my book...

[peyton randolph]

With all of the nasty things that old bat Thomas has said about Bush, it is about time some conservative pundits starting calling the senile skank by her true colors. Thomas makes Rather look impartial.

Well, I have to ask, is Helen old? Is she Arab? Well,,,,

[CondorFlight]

"She also called the Iraq war “a violation of international policy under any circumstance,” and said it is “immoral.”

More to the point, why does Helen Thomas think the liberation of millions of Iraqi Arabs is "immoral"? Did she think Saddam's continuation in power was "moral"? (That would be a logical conclusion from her remarks. . .)

Ann's to bright to use a cheap unfunny slam like that. Just gives them grist for the mill. Thomas has way to many legitimately humorous attributes that could have been used to far greater effect.

Bush then dealt Thomas a second slight. By custom, Thomas concludes White House press conferences at the president’s signal by saying, “Thank you, Mr. President.” Bush instead ended the conference with his own sign off, “Thank you for your questions,” and killed a decades-old White House custom. Lastly, she was removed from her front row seat, and delegated to a back seat in the press choir.

I love that man!

[Yo-Yo]

It still says "old arab" on Ann's website. Even so, it is mean spirited, evil, nasty, vindictive, and just plane not nice of Ann to call Ms. Thomas "old."

[The Loan Arranger]

Here's what Ann Coulter actually said: "...Press passes can't be that hard to come by if the White House allows that dyspeptic, old Helen Thomas to sit within yards of the president." I don't see the word 'Arab' there, do you?

[EagleUSA]

They can dish it out, but they sure cannot take it....typical loser leftists. I say, if you cannot take it, then DON'T DISH IT OUT!! You are learning that when you have a REAL PRESIDENT to deal with, you will get it handed back to you.

Sorry , no wimps or liberals allowed.

[Yo-Yo]

plane plain

[teenyelliott]

Is this treatment due to the fact that Thomas has been critical of the Bush administration

No, it's because she in a hideous offensive idiot. Next question...

[traderrob6]

More Thomas idiocy here

[zbigreddogz]

If true, the statement by Colter is racist and dispicable.

From what I know of Colter, I wouldn't doubt it.

Her and Mike Savage are our version of Michael Moore, and should be shunned.

[konaice]

Ya know we have RULES around here..... Ahem...

[anniegetyourgun]

Somehow I knew someone would come along and clear up this lie.

[pissant]

Since when is calling an arab an arab offensive.

[Yo-Yo]

Oh, buddy, are you in trouble now!

And personally, I think Savage is funny.

But the most conspicuous recipient of the Bush freeze-out was Thomas, who has barbed and grilled every president since Kennedy and almost always gets to ask a question. Bush pointedly ignored her.

Bush then dealt Thomas a second slight. By custom, Thomas concludes White House press conferences at the president’s signal by saying, “Thank you, Mr. President.” Bush instead ended the conference with his own sign off, “Thank you for your questions,” and killed a decades-old White House custom. Lastly, she was removed from her front row seat, and delegated to a back seat in the press choir.

Put in her place at last!

That seat had a sign on it, "Reserved for SeaHag".
