Reply #52: "Thank You, Ms. Thomas" (why the card should say this)

[Senator]

From infoplease:

"Thomas was the first woman officer of the National Press Club, the White House Correspondents Association, and the first woman member of the Gridiron Club. She became the first female White House bureau chief of a wire service in 1974. As her career advanced, Thomas came to be considered the “dean of the Washington press corps,” and she was allowed to ask the first question at presidential press conferences. At the end of her first presidential press conference in 1961, Thomas said, “Thank you, Mr. President,” establishing a tradition that continues today."

The importance of this tradition she began goes beyond simple politeness. It was a symbolic recognition that the People (via a free press) had the last word. That "the occupant" was there to provide information as a public servant and was "dismissed" when that duty was performed.

Of course, the neofascist bushkid regime feels no obligation to such traditions. Just as they've never felt an obligation to the American People, having never garnered their consent to govern in the first (or second) place. Hence their refusal to acknowledge Ms. Thomas for over 3 years.
