Disgraced former White House correspondent Helen Thomas will be receiving a lifetime achievement award next month from the Council on American-Islamic Relations.

Coming roughly three months after Thomas was forced to resign from Hearst Newspapers for disgustingly telling Israeli Jews to move back to Germany and Poland and "get the hell out of Palestine," this is clearly going to raise a lot of eyebrows especially with all the media's recent hyperventilation over so-called Islamophobia.

Consider how the following report from The Hill is going to play in an environment where the press are accusing Americans of being anti-Muslim (h/t Hot Air headlines):

Further evidence that CAIR is a load of crap. Come to think of it, so is HT.

Watch your mouth! Next step for her is the Nobel prize for Islamic Goodwill promotion.

With any luck, the award will be a full-length burqa.

I don’t know how to post images but unfortunately, I think it’s time for the super closeup. :-(

How about a bronzed, but functional, suicide vest?

And risk having to spend eternity in "paradise" with Helen Thomas?

Isn’t she a bit young to be given a lifetime achievement award? (No wait I’m thinking of Betty White)

Now, THIS is "inappropriate laughter."

Ping for the HT list, seanmerc?
