N. No one wants to "lay hands" on her to force her out of the room.

N+1. Makes McClellan look smarter and more in charge every time she opens her mouth.

WHY OH WHY does the White House NOT POUNCE on this stuff????

With so much coming out now IN SUPPPORT of the sincerity and truth in which the President has carried out his duties to defend our country and attack IRAQ (The British report on their Iraq intelligence, the Senate Report on Joe Wilson), why does the White House spokesperson (AFTER HE'S GIVEN a GREAT OPENING), just dribbles out the these revelations just "speak for themselves"????

BUMP!

When was the last time that a press agent b-slapped another one (deservedly or not)?

Good for you, Gannon.

6. Because if she wasn't in the WH press room, she'd be pushing a shopping cart around DC and annoying the tourists.

Where is Joe Wilson? Has he disappeared into Africa with that woman accused of having an affair with Kerry? Bring us Joe Wilson! Bring it on!

You're all focusing on what Helen Thoma did, which was admittedly astounding. Imagine all the leading hostile questions teh left wing press hurls at those conferences and then they will attack another reporter for daring to have a "conservative" premise in a question.

But, uh, the White House reaction was zero. Totally anemic, forced by a question. As the reporter brought up, this smarmy Wilson did months of damage with his lies and now the White House is doing nothing to right the wrongs.

If Joe Wilson were a republican the dems would have 55% of Americans HATING him as a villain right now, and blaming all republicans and every reporter who gave Wilson a platform.

It may be strategery. I would be shocked if the re-election staff didn't have a very specific timeline as to when they want this stuff to really come out. Until then, the enemy should be encouraged to over-play their hand.

Helen reminds me of the "Where's the beef?" lady. Just not as funny.

Helen Thomas sounds like Aunt Bethany in National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation:

Christmas Vacation, starring the star political pundit Chevy Chase?

Braaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaccccckkkkkkkkkk!!!

For Who-pee Goldberg and Chevy Chase and other leftwing actors(?)

...except that Helen has never been a reporter, just a commentator. She can no more write a story without bias than you can sneeze with your eyes open. Same for 85% of the Washington Press Corp (and the 15% sit way in the back)

Real reporters are rare, and rarely successful these days. Used to be if management had something to say about a news item they'd air their views in an editoral. Now it's just written into the story with no attribution. What we see now are views-casts, not news-casts.

It's pretty much impossible to write without bias. The key is trying to at least keep it in check and not let it get in the way of the story. Ol' Helen never tried to learn, let alone master, this skill.

Scott keeps missing these golden opportunities. He's a nice guy but this is NOT the job for him. The President needs someone who's a little faster on his feet.

Can't they find another position for him and get someone else in there?
