One harpy comes out of the woodwork to defend another.

You may remember Ratner for being one of the most obnoxious, nasal-voiced females on the planet. Fox News inexplicably gave her loads of airtime during the 2006 campaign during which she famously (?) predicted a win for.....John F. Kerry.

She is insufferable.

What more could people want???? How about never having to see or hear her again? That would be a start!

It was a hate crime. She should be in jail.

What do we want? For her to go away — far, far away. She is the ultimate witch — no, hag.

From Helen I don’t want anything more except silence. From Ellen I’d love an admission that Helen’s wasn’t in the least a minority opinion within the MSM.

Helen “Nazi” Thomas didn’t apologize at all. If you read her statement you’ll see that she merely expressed her “regret” for her remarks being captured on video.

Do you mean the 2004 campaign?

Personally, I’d like to see her eaten by jackals and her bones bleach in the desert sun. But that’s just me.

I'm still wondring how Thomas' remarks were said "in private" when she had a camera in her face, literally.

Obviously, this author couldn't defend Thomas w/o lying. It's a common liberal tactic.

What do people want? Obviously not her body.

As for Ratner. Grow up. Jews used to have dinner with their non-Jewish neighbors in Germany until one day they were the ones being cooked.

Stop being an apologist for a sick anti-semite.

My how quickly things can change:

May 2010: Helen Thomas is described as an Icon of the WH Press Corps, one deserving of her own sacred front row chair and the respect of all those in the room.

June 2010: Hey her brain is fried, she old!, what do you expect, pay no attention to her. We all have said something we wish we could take back...

The real disgrace is that this old cow was not sent out to pasture 30 years ago.

Yeah Ellen. You’re a close friend and supporter of Israel. Mmm-hum.

That’s like saying it’s okay my good friend told me to off my mother because she doesn’t care for her. But it’s okay. She’s my “close friend”. Please....

A lot of Nazi war criminals apologized decades later, as well.
