Open Letter to Helen Thomas
Dear Helen Thomas,
Re: http://www.drudgereport.com/flash.htm
Why in the world would President Bush consider you worthy of asking a legitimate question of him? Legitimate is the key word, here, Helen, something you haven't been since you came out of the closet quite a few years ago and proudly proclaimed, not only your extreme liberalism, but your utter hatred of Republicans, in general, and President Bush in particular. Once a respected White House journalist who, for the most part, at least attempted to conceal your political leanings, you've now fallen as far from impartiality as Dan Rather; and it's no surprise that you supported him concerning his false and misleading reports. "I am a liberal," you proudly admitted to The Progressive, an extreme leftist publication; "I was a liberal the day I was born, and I will be until the day I die", you were quoted as saying.
You've spent the last six or more years making one false claim after another against President Bush, and you are no longer worthy, in my opinion, to even be considered a White House correspondent. You're not a journalist, but rather a political spin-mistier. You've turned into a mean-spirited old bitty intent on destroying a decent and honorable man. You've disrespected your position; you've disrespected your profession; you've disrespected the office of the president; you've disrespected the truth; and, in my opinion, you've disrespected the United States of America.
You've fallen from grace, Helen, and you can't even handle it with grace. And instead of looking towards yourself for the reason, you blame the president for that as well. Get a clue, Helen, you've become a first-class *****, as Vice President Cheney once describe one of your partners in journalistic crime, and you're so full of yourself with your elitist sense of self-importance that you can't even see it.
You call President Bush "a coward", and one who won't "take you on". Get real, Helen. President Bush is just too much of a gentleman to tell you what he really thinks of you; he won't disrespect the office of the presidency getting into a silly discussion with you; and he doesn't want to waste his time or that of the rest of the press corps dealing with a political snipe like you. You're not there to gather information to report to the American people, like a journalist is supposed to do, but rather to use your position to defame and misrepresent a president for the sole purpose of advancing your own political and hate-filled agenda.
You vowed to kill yourself if Dick Cheney ever ran for president, and that it would be a sad day for the country if he does. You then still want to be taken seriously as a legitimate "reporter", and you got upset when others reported on your silly comment. All is fair in love and politics, Helen; and in the political arena you aren't worthy to clean the vice president's shoes.
I'm not surprised President Bush is snubbing you, Helen. I am surprised, however, that you still have a seat in the White House Press room. You don't belong in the White House. You belong in the dog house.
Now excuse me, I have a check to write to the Cheney for president committee.
