Condi Is A 'Monster' - 'A God Damn Liar' - Helen Thomas
snip

But longtime White House Bureau Chief Helen Thomas, now a syndicated columnist with Hearst, had nothing but contempt for Rice's nomination. The feisty 84-year-old reporter who started at the White House during the Kennedy administration had some unkind words to describe Bush and Condi.

Asked about the election result, the sharp-tongued reporter simply put her hand on her face and said, "My God, the man is a fascist -- a fascist, I tell you."

"I tell you, the women is a monster, a monster, a monster," she kept saying.

Asked why she was so angry with Condi, Thomas explained that the national security adviser had lied about the Iraq war and "thousands had died."

14. "Thomas had little substantiation for any of these allegations."
Huh?

What planet does the reporter come from?

Oh yeah - the neocon/fundie bubble universe that voted for Bush.

That's beside the point.

edit- Fact stands on its own. Spin is just noise. I find it interesting how the agregious twisting of fact, and half truth spin can't keep the light from shining through. What mystifies me is that some can't see it.

7. I noticed that
They tried to make her look like a loon. Helen Thomas is a patriot, and something even rarer these days, a journalist.

13. Met her at an airport. She signed my book copy of the Bill of Rights.
She was beaming like a Grandma with a favorite grandchild as we discussed the importance of defending the 1st Amendment.

This was at 6 in the morning, too.

Rock on, Ms. Thomas.

17. The Chimp
is sooooooooo frightened of Helen. He wouldn't call on her if she was the only reporter in the press room.

Hmmm... entertaining thoughts of Helen and Dan Rather starting their own news bureau...:think:

20. rice has carried anything and everything for the bush family for years.
