Helen Thomas



Drudge reports:

Veteran wire reporter Helen Thomas is vowing to 'kill herself' if Dick Cheney announces he is running for president.

The newspaper HILL first reported the startling claim on Thursday.

"The day I say Dick Cheney is going to run for president, I'll kill myself," she told the HILL. "All we need is one more liar."

Thomas added, "I think he'd like to run, but it would be a sad day for the country if he does."

How is this woman allowed to keep her White House press credentials?
I guess Thomas isn't considered a threat since she vowed to kill herself, not Dick Cheney.

What a tasteless thing for her to say! Not only does she behave in a totally unprofessional manner; she has no class whatsoever.

In addition to calling the Vice President a liar, she also manages to belittle the suffering of families touched by suicide.

The White House should seriously consider taking away her press privileges.

At the very least, Scott McClellan should ignore her; but he's too nice a guy to do that. He shows respect for doddering elders like Thomas, even when they are being relentlessly and unrepentantly obnoxious.
