It is sad that Helen Thomas ended her career on such a sour note.
Yet Faux "news" is keeping that bastard Glenn Beck who doesn't see how badly he screwed up touting a vicious anti-Semite Nazi sympathizing red-baiter. :grr:

3. I think it's sad that people are more up in arms about the deliberately misinterpreted comments
of Helen Thomas than they are about the nine people Israel killed and from which they'll walk away scot-free.

6. It's sadder when there was no outrage when American leaders
said that the Palestinians should move to another country -- or be forcibly moved.

7. Helen was about 30 years old in the late 40s when
the Brits occupied Palestine and the whole occupation thing started, so she obviously has a different viewpoint than those of us who were not around at the time.

Still sorry to see her have to retire under these conditions.
