It was brewing in a pot kettle the last few days, and it has overflowed right onto the floor.
First, how she wasn't present in the press room today:
And here's why exactly:
This 89 year old lady is a threat to our moral society of stupidity:
The White House Correspondents Association is currently debating what to do about Helen Thomas in the wake of the explosion of outrage over her claim that Jews should "get the hell out of Palestine" and go back to Europe.
The WHCA has not commented publicly on her remarks, but in an email circulated late last night, CNN's Ed Henry, who's also the secretary of the WHCA, described them as "shocking and indefensible."
That makes it unlikely that she'll be allowed to hold her plum seat in the White House press room. which, unsurprisingly, was empty today:
Well, this has all lead to Helen Thomas retiring immediately:
Whether you believe her statements or not, Thomas knows that saying things like that in public would come with the risk of dealing with a mob like Henry and all using the chances they can get to rid of her once and for all. Especially when AIPAC always hovering around. There just seemed like there was no way she was going to survive this one.
Still though, thank you DC Stenography society of stupidity for going after an 89 year respected wonderful journalist instead of doing your job and calling out your other colleagues who said controversial cringe like things about Muslims over the years.
(From TWD, stay safe as always and thanks for even reading.)
Update: Folks, be civil here now, please be civil now.
Update 2: Well, so much for that.
