I think Helen Thomas should just resign in dignity and leave the bashers have their way. |

There are millions of people out there who are outraged by what Israel has done and continues to do in the name of "security" while forcing collective punishment on groups of people who had nothing to do with the holocaust. Millions do not have the courage to speak out and if they did they would be banned, blackballed, fired, or even killed. Helen is an icon whose real reputation and worth cannot be tarnished by those who would like to do so. There has been more outrage expressed by the organized media over Helen's comments than over the nine lives lost at the hands of the Israelis.
Go on Helen, retire to a much deserved rest. They shouldn't have you to kick around anymore.

1. This, too, will pass. Helen Thomas should stay right where she is. |
|
What she said was wrong, she apologized and will move on. She isn't the story.

4. Dignity left the party a long time ago. |
|
The whole Jew-hating thing kinda does a number on her dignity.

9. I"m surprised a Lebonese-American would be critical of Isreal |
|
and it's current ruling party. You'd think someone like Helen Thomas would keep their pie hole shut and not make any kind of comment at all. I wonder if she has any relatives over in Lebanon or perhaps had their houses and land liberated by the early Israeli "freedom fighters" you now back in the late 40's. :sarcasm:
I'm really impressed with the freeperish response from pro Israeli government posters and politicians. oh well I've been around this site since 2001, this too shall pass.
Helen Thomas has been an exemplary journalist and writer and will continue to be so I'm sure about that.

10. No. Fleschi Liar is the one who should retire. |

The lying sack of hair products should go straight to writing infomercials for Vince of Sham-Wow fame.
