Ms. Thomas is the figure on the right. |
Helen Thomas, former White House reporter, has died at age 92, proving once again that only the good die young.
Ms. Thomas was continuously acerbic, hostile and aggressive with every Republican president, not so much with Democrats, the party to which she belonged. Her lasting memorial should probably be to Media Bias.
Thomas's long journalistic career finally ended some months ago when she was asked what the Jews of Israel should do, and replied "Get the hell out of Palestine." Her pro-terrorist, antisemitic remark stirred up a firestorm of rage and criticism, and she quickly retired.
Now that she has died, there is a rumor that Ms. Thomas will be memorialized in stone, overlooking ancient European cathedrals and historic buildings (see picture).
If you don't like this memorial, don't blame me, I only read about it at Blazing Cat Fur.
Update: American Power also has words of praise for Ms. Thomas at this link.
