With Regrets (Helen Thomas' agent and her co-author dump her)

[Nachum]

I concur with the following response from my agent to Helen Thomas' lamentable remarks about Israel, and will no longer be working with Helen on our book projects. -- Craig Crawford

"It is with a heavy heart that Nine Speakers, Inc. announces its resignation as the agent for Helen Thomas, Dean of the White House Press Corps. Ms. Thomas has had an esteemed career as a journalist, and she has been a trailblazer for women, helping others in her profession, and beyond. However, in light of recent events, Nine Speakers is no longer able to represent Ms. Thomas, nor can we condone her comments on the Middle East. Nine Speakers will continue to enthusiastically represent all of our other current and future clients." -- Diane Nine (ninespeakers@usa.net)

The anti-semite, semite, getting her come-up-uns! Never too late!

[Road Warrior ‘04]

Helen was a big moneymaker as a “Pole” dancer.

You're killing me! LOL!!!!!

[Shannon]

....she can land a job with Aljazeera....

Yeh and I bet O would let her keep her front row seat too.

[Kickass Conservative]

But they were OK with all the nasty stuff she said about President Bush for years.

The Unbiased Journalist is the fantasy of a Liberal mind.

Ugly is as ugly does, she proves ugliness from on high supports ugliness below.

Who said ugliness/beauty is skin deep! She is the personification of ugliness runs through and though! (From the outside in...in her case!)

If she were 50 years younger, she’s have a job in 0bama’s Regime.

I’m SO glad to see this! SOMEONE with either brains, or that is truly offended.

I sent a polite letter to the White House requesting that her press credentials be stripped... Don’t worry I’m not holding my breath, but I thought it was worth a shot...

[FourPeas]

I’m surprised, pleasantly surprised, yet surprised nonetheless.

[Kickass Conservative]

“Helen was a big moneymaker as a “Pole” dancer”.

Meaning she enjoys dancing on the bodies of the Jewish “Poles” murdered by the Nazi's. Maybe Helen should run the U.N. like Ex Nazi Kurt Waldheim did. Her comments must serve as a qualification for the job.

[OCCASparky]

Well, bye!

[Joann37]

Cool!

[TribalPrincess2U]

Good things do happen once in awhile.

She thinks she’s relevant like 0 and the ‘overpaid’
hollyweirds.

[Jess Kitting]

Regrets?

His only regret should be not doing it sooner!

[353FMG]

>>Former Israeli leader Golda Meier was no prettier...”

.
Watch what you’re saying — if you had her resposibility, her life’s experience, her accomplishments and her age, you would be nothing to write home about, either.

[COUNTrecount]

Just think of how many other remarks like this she got away with when she wasn’t recorded.

[TribalPrincess2U]

Wiki says she was hatched in 1920. 90 yrs old. Yep, the good ones die young.

[353FMG]

Why did they let her go at the Nurnberg trials?

[GeronL]

All she did was give voice to what a lot of the left really think.

[Frangibled]

Waiting for the White House to show some class, cutting up her press pass. Oops, what DID I say? She will be in the front row forever.
