Most Americans are outraged at Helen Thomas' culturally and ethnically based anti-semitic biases, said with seemingly complete sobriety and coherence this past week to a rolling video camera.

Took 16 months, but the tingle that monopolized Chrissy Matthews’ leg, finally got transferred over to Helen Thomas’s leg, where it belongs. It is still hard to believe the no-class, low, low quality of all these people. They are a BLIGHT.
Yeah, the Patriot Missile Batteries for Israel to protect itself from Iraqi Scud missiles during the first Gulf War, and the refocusing of Air assets during that war to go after those Scud launching sites...doing whatever could be done to keep Israel out of that war....that was a bit tepid, I would say...

“A furor has erupted...” - Laura Ingraham (probably unintentionally)
