Congressman Apologizes For Helen Thomas Virgin Remark
http://www.local6.com/news/9409191/detail.html

Glad to see that the "adults are in charge".

"A congressman in Iowa has apologized for disparaging comments he made about a veteran White House correspondent, according to a Local 6 News report.

Rep. Steve King, R-Iowa was talking about the death of terrorist leader Musab al-Zarqawi when he mentioned reporter Helen Thomas.

"There probably are not 72 virgins in the hell he's at," King said about al-Zarqawi. "And if there are, they probably all look like Helen Thomas."

--------------------------------------------------------
This is too funny. Was looking at Freaker responses. Check out this one, where one freaker tries to give another freaker an English lesson. Priceless!

While funny - the person who wrote this story needs some English lessons - There should be They're

6. Is that you Dan Quayle?
I had no idea that FR had hired Dan to review and correct "they're" spelling and usage mistakes.

Remember Quayle? "that's good Timmy, but you forgot to put an "e" on the end of "potatoe". Look on the little kids face was priceless. I've seen that look before from my kids. It means; "your" a dumbass
