Scary Woman Retires

This woman’s photo is flat out scary to me.  It reminds me of another very scary facial image I can remember from the movie Chitty Chitty Bang Bang. The face of the creepy child catching dude terrified me as a kid and even now, when I think back to it - my skin crawls. I can still here him saying, “Candy! Lollipops!”

So this week Helen Thomas retires after a video of her berating Jews and Israel surfaced.  Thomas was quoted as saying that Israel should, “get the hell out of Palestine” and that Jewish people should do home to “Poland, Germany … and America and everywhere else”.  Can you imaging for a moment, someone in the press saying that black people in America should “go home” as if the place where they currently live is NOT their home?

Helen Thomas writes a pseudo-apology on her website saying that her remarks “do not reflect my heart-felt belief that peace will come to the Middle ease only when all parties recognize the need for mutual respect and tolerance.”

Um…. What?

How can someone say, “get out of here” and then say that they REALLY meant to say, “I hope one day we will live in peace”.

So Helen Thomas “retires effective immediately” and the other news networks are going over her career and hailing her as being some kind of stalwart of truth, and fidelity who has seen history “first hand” as if the rest of us haven’t.   This woman is a Jew-hater and her friends in the media are spin-doctors.

This is an excellent response to Thomas:
