“She was literally a pioneer, she came over on the Mayflower.”

I guess the Mayflower didn’t come directly here from Europe, but made a stop in Lebanon.

Helen Thomas was hugely bigoted and hugely ignorant of world history. What made her a journalist is anyone’s guess.

This is the first I’d heard that she passed.

Wasn’t paying much attention to the news cycle this weekend.

Helen Thomas did pave the way for other women to become successful journalists and it took guts, persistance, and dedicaion to do that. Problem is, she also helped make the press what it has become, obnoxious and ideologically leftist. During Republican administrations, she was very confrontational and constantly mouthing leftist talkiing points.

By the way, there is no need for pictures, PLEASE!!!!!

Yeah, she had a kink for the skeleton-style body armor, from what I understand.

But hey...we shouldn’t judge... the Kurgan wasn’t a bad guy....he just never had a pony. He was an oppressed, underprivileged victim of evil white Highlander bourgeois oppression, and was just looking for a little hope and change and maybe cop a quick feel from a wench. Can’t you SEE that on his face??? Can’t you FEEL it when he walked in (”Hello, Pretty!!!!”). What kind of insensitive monsters ARE we if we can’t see that!!

Stop...I’m....I’m getting emotional over here... where the hell is Dr. Phil when I need him...

LMAO

It’s true, according to wikipedia per the novelization of the film the Kurgan had an abusive father back in 970 BC! He’s a poor oppressed victim just like those innocent suicide bombers.

“...had an abusive father back in 970 BC!...”

Well, you know how it was back “in the Old Days”...

You get up, rub some Steppe sand under the armpits to clean up, get ready to go to work, you know, and slave away raping and pillaging, and for what? All for some ungrateful wench that you carried off from some other tribe that does NOTHING - NOTHING - but nag, nag, nag all the damn day; Ya THINK she’d life ONE finger to clean the damn cave up a bit??? And THEN she tells you that you have to go BACK to that village (that isn’t there any more) and get her fat Brontosaurus of a MOTHER to come live with you as well...

And then there’s the kids - 17 of them, always bitching because they don’t have the latest stone club or ax technology, or their animal hide clothes are suddenly out-of-style, and they’re just NEVER F***ING HAPPY!!! YOU GIVE THEM EVERYTHING AND ALL THEY DO IS B***TCH AND WHINE AND...AND...AND...AHHHHGH!!!

Whew.... Sorry...My Inner Kurgan just met my Inner Sam Kinnison... it wasn’t pretty for a moment there..

I’m OK now...
