She just keeps getting hotter.

President Bush today again avoided taking a question from White House doyenne Helen Thomas during his 45-minute press conference, even though he took questions from every reporter around her front-row, center seat.
"He's a coward," Thomas said afterward. "He's supposed to be this macho guy. He'll take on Osama bin Laden, but he won't take me on."
Thomas, who worked as the UPI White House reporter for 57 years and is now a columnist, raised her hand every time the president was concluding an answer to a reporter's question, but he never called on her.

She had a few questions in mind, though. "I wanted to ask about Iraq: 'You said you didn't go in for oil or for Israel or for WMDs. so why did you go in?' "
She also had another question at the ready, just in case, this one about the president's contention that a 28-year-old wiretapping law known as FISA is out of date, which prompted him to order the National Security Agency to conduct a secret electronic surveillance program that Democrats contend is illegal.
"You keep saying it's a 1978 law, but the Constitution 200 years old. Is that out of date, too?"
Afterward, Thomas sat sullenly in her chair in the White House press work area, huddled in her leopard-print winter coat.
But as she left, she made a prediction: "He came on to my turf. I'll bet the next press conference will be in Room 450 of the EEOB," a theater-style room in the Eisenhower Executive Office Building, where she would not be in the front row.
Developing...
oh my goodness... oh my golly ....ahhh....ohhh...hhhhahhh
I am ....in lala land.
He only has to kill Osama bin Laden, not look at him.
She just keeps getting hotter.
The only thing I love about Helen - she makes ME feel like I'm gorgeous! Lol!
Thomas, who worked as the UPI White House reporter for 57 years and is now a columnist,
some people just can't get over themselves...
Helen Thomas is irrelevant.
No one wants to gaze upon her, as she is the veryreincarnation of Medusa..
To kick Saddam's wussified ass--setting an example to Syria, Iran, and Korea.
I wish the President would have answered: "To destroy a lunatic militant Islamanazi stronghold and supporter of Jihadist terrorism -- and to free 10s of millions of Iraqi to create a free nation - if they WANT it and are willing to defend it."
A President's Press Conference is NOT her stage to show her ass....and ask the same impertinent and insulting questions...
She is NOBODY... She is nothing but an old, ugly, hateful, spiteful Arab apologist.
F'er
Semper Fi
You are an evil evil man for posting her picture!
Yikes ! Who colored Ann's hair? Lucille Ball?
You're irrelevant, Helen.
GWB is trying to clue you in.
The last time I posted something about her I said that ignore her and pull her credentials to show the media what it means to behave like spoiled brats. She's the most spoiled of all. What they should do is pull her credentials in front of the rest of the media at the end of the next briefing and then politely usher the bitch from the room and away from America's White House.....
Isn't she the one who just admitted bulemia?
Helen Thomas has ZERO respect for President Bush, she knows everything thinks she is a witch, so she dares him. Well, W is smarter than her and he need not give the WITCH the time of day.
I hope he stops letting SNIPPY ole David Greggory have any questions soon. He is a OLE Dirt bag himself and he does not respect the President. I wish he would get fired! I know I keep sending emails to nbc with my view on him. As long as he and others with like minded agenda keep on doing the reporting........... they have Zero credibility in my humble opinion!!!!
You know, as much as it hurts my eyes to gaze upon the HelenThomasBeast, I still would have like to have seen her "sullen" -- although I could do withouy the leopard-print coat.
Geeez, is that really Ann Margaret? That's the best picture of her I'ver ever seen.
When is the old girl going to croa...er...I mean...RETIRE?
She is as useless as tits on a boar hog.
Yeah baby, yeah....Catherine Zeta Jones ?...mmmmm
