Mediocrity, thy name is Helen. And, to the libs, she appears to be a woman of accomplishment. About says it all, eh?

HT really is as dumb as rock. Stultifyingly stupid, and nasty to boot. There are plenty of liberals I enjoy arguing with, people who think and have ideas, who are not shallow, mindless, doctrinaire left-bots. Helen Thomas is not one of those people - she is just moronic and cannot think for herself. She is also a staunch terrorist sympathizer, which goes well with her other far-left lunacies.

Here is a great example of HT in action, rationalizing Saddam's SCUD missile attacks on Israel (which was no part of Desert Shield and Desert Storm) as somehow justified:

=========================================================

"A classic example was with Bush’s father during the opening days of the first Gulf War, when she wondered why the president was making such a big deal about Saddam Hussein’s missile attacks on Israel. ”War inherently is a two-way street,” Thomas loftily informed Bush. ”Why should you be surprised or outraged when there is an act of retaliation?” To which the puzzled Bush replied: “To a country that’s innocent and not involved in it?”

"That exchange is not included in Thank You, Mr. President, which shamelessly cherry-picks White House briefings to enhance Thomas’ reputation and deprecate the rest of the White House press corps."
