DEARBORN, Mich. - The Arab American National Museum in Dearborn could land a sculpture of veteran White House correspondent Helen Thomas.
Spokeswoman Kim Silarski said Friday the museum, which already displays one of Thomas' vintage typewriters, was approached by former White House photographer Susan Tinsley McElhinney. McElhinney sculpted a clay version of a Thomas bust.
Donations are being sought for the tribute.
Thomas was born to Lebanese immigrants in Winchester, Ky., and raised in Detroit, where she graduated from Wayne State University. The longtime United Press International reporter now is a Heart Newspapers columnist.
Thomas turned 89 on Aug. 4, the same birthday as President Barack Obama. He led a roomful of reporters in singing "Happy Birthday to You."

“...sculpted a clay version of a Thomas bust.”
Good God, don’t we have enough problems in this world without doing this?

So Thomas is Lebanese - is THAT why she's so ugly?? DESPITE being Lebanese she's ugly. Lebanese women are usually gorgeous.
