I hold no sympathy for Jew-haters.

My mother taught me that if I can’t say something nice about someone I should say nothing at all.

Nothing at all.

Her external appearance didn’t matter to me...but the fact that she was hideous on the inside did.

May she rest....in peace is optional.

Still, as time went by, the awards poured in as Thomas became a Washington institution, with cameos in Hollywood movies and even "The Simpsons."

What's that line from Chinatown?

Politicians, ugly buildings, and whores all get respectable if they last long enough.

Not sure which category Helen Thomas fits into...

Well, one achievement rarely mentioned is that she was the model Walt Disney used for the Wicked Queen when she goes to see Snow White. As usual, FReepers noticed this and broke the story which is still unreported in the MSM.

Her professional stature epitomized liberal behavior; rabid hatred for responsible behavior, and endless awards presented to each other for image.

Helen probably looks better dead than she did alive, because the evil spirits have departed and have left behind an empty body.

Her ugliness was not because she was old and wrinkled, because there is beauty and wisdom in old faces that come from within. (For example, Mother Teresa!)

In 1 Samuel 16, we are told that “People judge by outward appearances, but God looks at the heart.”

Even when Helen formed her face into a sardonic rictus which could be loosely identified as a “smile”, her malevolent spirit radiated through.

It is for this reason that she became the icon of ugliness here on FR. Most of us on this board have discernment of right and wrong, and could actually FEEL the evil emanating from the face of Helen Thomas.

One can only hope that Jesus (A Jew!) delivered her from evil at the last living moment. We, as humans do not understand such Grace and Mercy, but that’s HIS Business, and not ours!

An excellent column.

I wish more members of the Washington-based media would read it.

She was a disgusting human being who should have been “ushered” of the stage thirty years ago when it was known she was a terrorist sympathizer!!

I am sure she MAY have had some good ‘qualities’ ...as a person, but OBJECTIVITY was not one of them.

And, in the end, what good is a ‘journalist’ without objectivity?

It would be like a car mechanic who can’t change a tire.

She’s probably interviewing Hitler right about now.

Well said with even a hint of kindness. I was not even moved to use the well worn, tell us what you really think.

If “Objectivity” were a requirement for journalists, there would be VERY FEW in that profession.

Most of them are just Propaganda Agents Now.

Very few true journalists exist these days. Most, like Thomas, are hacks who use their media platform to spread propaganda and push the agenda of the left.

She shoud be buried in one of Israel’s many Arab towns, just to get her ire in the afterlife in Hell...

Usually, that’s a saying that for the most part is customary and commonplace in decent society.

However, in this case, not recounting to the world, not laying it down in history, what a thoroughly evil, spiteful, Jew-Hating monster she was does a disservice to the living and future generations.

The fact that only Andrea Mitchell (in this article anyway) is the only one that could speak any semblance of well for her is extremely telling just exactly how evil this woman was.
