RSSAncient White House Reporter Helen Thomas Retires after “Jews Go Home” Comment … Victim of Her Own PC
I guess we can add another individual to the list of the unemployed under President Barack Hussein Obama …
Helen Thomas, who has been covering Presidents since the the JFK Administration retired today, effective immediately, following her her controversial statements about Israel stating that Jews needed to “get out of Palestine” and go back to Poland and Germany. JFK Administration, I would have thought the Washington administration. Thomas would later apologize; however, the damage was done.
Today, Helen Thomas’ seat was vacant and will be from this point going forward.
White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs called the Helen Thomas comments “offensive and reprehensible.” Now all this administration needs to do is actually trat Israel like an ally.
Asked today about her marks, White House spokesman Robert Gibbs called them “offensive and reprehensible” and added that they “do not reflect certainly the opinion of most of the people here and certainly not of the administration.”
What is most ironic regarding Thomas’ forced retitement is that she is a victim of her owm media elite political correctness. Helen Thomas should be allowed to have an opinion; however, this one was a doozy and really was almost indefensable. However, for all the Leftist media elitist that are in the WH Press corps, I wonder gow many of them had the same opinion? Now, they will never voice their true feelings seeing what happened to the Helen Thomas.
Personally, I have never been a fan of Helen Thomas and the more bitter she became in later years I never could quite under stand why any one (Republican Administrations) must up with her nonsense. Some say she was a barrier breaker, some say she got what she deserved and it was a fitting end and some say, don’t let the door hit you on the way out.
EXIT QUESTION: How many in the liberal MSM feel exactly the same as Helen Thomas with regards to Israel but are too cowardice to say it?

Good Riddance….This hateful old sagging bag of skin should have retired years ago. Never have liked this witch.
The racist finally gets booted. Go home Thomas.
i thought the lady who played wicked witch of the west in Wizard of Oz with Judy Garland had died already? Damn! She must be really old by now. Didn’t know she’d gone into politics ;>)
Old Ahab finally got her due after all these years of poisoning the atmosphere at the WH.
I wonder how you people would feel if some Mexican cult considered lets say Texas as their holy ground and took control of the whole nation,driving all inhabitants to some reserve and set a blockade, it’s not close to what happened in the middle east.
The thing that bothers me is that when the oil is finished there so will the partnership with the U.S. and and angry region who was stripped of their resources will retaliate on the poor jews.
fearless, for someone with such a screen name, you seem afraid of what’s going to happen if this and that, etc. Well, what if it doesn’t happen that way? Think of that?
Helen Thomas is the daughter of Lebanese immigrants! What do you expect?
She should have been kicked out a long time ago. She was rude to presidents and thought she was more intelligent than she was. Another narcissist who bites the dust….
It’s not the if scenario for the Palestinians it’s the reality from the handful of jews to the full colonisation of their land,my dear.
[...] White House Press Corps Dean was long overdue for retirement. [...]
1. helen is not a racist as the “jews” are not a race.
2. isreal does not belong to the “jews” unless you believe that if you steal something it belongs to you, if thats true then get ready to live in the steven james blake emperium.
3. Helen Thomas is the last of real journalists who did not ‘kow tow” to pre perscribed faked questions that the administrations put out.
her leaving and hearing the kind of bullshit comming from the above that champions conformity and subservience to power over honesty and truth seeking that has been the media response and response of so called Americans, makes me wonder if the terrorists have truly won.
perhaps the real enemy is you.
kill the cop in your head, he/she is just following orders.
Arbeit macht frie, liebchen!
