Isn't she supposed to be a reporter? Geez, she sure is objective... NOT!

I just read her tripe linked by Drudge. She's off her rocker.

Here's a sample:

Quote:
Despite his vehement denials, Bush may be compelled to call for another military draft if he persists in making war.

He is scraping by now with his all-volunteer military, along with reservists and National Guard members, keeping them on duty longer than planned with a so-called a back-door draft. If he wins a second term, he wouldn't have to worry about running again and would have a free hand to undo his read-my-lips campaign promises.


Emphasis mine

I know the "draft" thing was cooked up to scare the bee-jeezus out of college aged kids, but how ironic is it that this old coot is trying to reach them.

For a seasoned citizen, she's pretty good at cut and paste. She pretty much cut and pasted the Dem's talking points.

article

I'm finding less and less surprised me.

She is a true witch. For the life of me I do not understand why the Republicans do not counter this more forcefully.

This is one old horse who needs to be put out to pasture. Couple this with Cronkite quote about Karl Rove and the Osama Bin-Laden tape and it is obvious that they are just embarassing themselves.

She's an old LIBERAL....
Gave Clinton a pass....
She's like Cronkite, think that they are respected, old reliables, but the more they rant the more respect they lose....

Reagan used to play her like a violin. She was *in*love* with Reagan, and all the unrequited stuff has made her even more of a barking moonbat than she already was.

John Kerry is the love child of Helen Thomas and Walter Cronkite.

Trust me on this.

LOL Too funny. The "woman" is a senile old bat. Since she got the boot from Presidential press conferences and is now irrelevant, the witch has been on a rampage of Bush hatred. She would do anything for Hanoi John, but even he can't probably take her, after all look at the problem he has as it is.

By the way, she not only drank the Koolaide, she helped mix it.

My biggest annoyance is not that Thomas writes what we all know she feels, it is that Drudge promotes her far left hateful opinion!!! And then nowhere does he promote the earth shattering NY Sun fact-based reporting of Lipscomb! I have lost all respect for Drudge as an arbiter of the most important breaking news stories!
