She’d rather resign than recant her views. Done like a true anti-semite.

The White House does not agree publicly with the opinions expressed by Helen Thomas.

The MSM and other liberals compulsively and habitually use the noun ‘racist’ like a weapon - sometimes a long rifle, sometimes a sledgehammer - to squelch their political opponents.

But in this case, they seem to have drawn the line at condemning Thomas’ words, not Thomas herself.

Shame on them.

Pres. Obama and the rest of his ilk keep on stepping into dodo, so to speak, and only when someone(Helen Thomas) self detonates, than do they(Obama)then throw her/him to the wolfs(under the bus) so to speak. When they are usefull idiots, they’re used to the Max!???

Hey, the guy asked a question; I offered my theory. I am not saying it is true in all cases and I do not believe it is a conscious attitude but it makes a certain amount of sense. I know if I was a Jew I heard the this kind of Helen Thomas nonsense (that is all too common) I would be asking God: "Why me?" And then next, "Why not somebody else for a while?"

Chosen means “chosen.”

For good and bad. It’s not a mystery.
