Yes, she is part of the living dead but she is getting pis--d at the BHO admin, for the LACK of transparency.
Bozell: When Even Helen Thomas Denounces Obama Media Manipulation, You Know It's Out of Control
By NB Staff (Bio | Archive)
July 2, 2009 - 12:02 ET
At yesterday’s White House briefing, CBS’s Chip Reid and Hearst Newspapers columnist Helen Thomas confronted Press Secretary Robert Gibbs over how "very tightly controlled" the media are by the Obama Administration. After the briefing, CNSNews.com reports that many members of the press corps went out of their way to thank Thomas for making her stand.
In a subsequent interview with CNSNews.com, Thomas again articulated her outrage at how the media are being controlled.
"Nixon didn’t try to do that. They couldn’t control (the media). They didn’t try. What the hell do they [the Obama Administration] think we are, puppets? They’re supposed to stay out of our business. They are our public servants. We pay them."
Thomas continued, "When you call the reporter the night before, you know damn well what they are going to ask to control you. I’m not saying there has never been managed news before, but this is carried to fare-thee-well--for the town halls, for the press conferences. It’s blatant. They don’t give a damn if you know it or not. They ought to be hanging their heads in shame."

She's a stupid sheeple and I hope she lives long enough to suffer greatly for her stupidity of which she was both a conspirator and contributor towards foisting this cruel joke upon us. This thing is looking more like what happened in Europe prior to WWII every day. The liberal boot-kissing media, academics, BHO drones and other various loud-mouthed liberals who drank the koolaid need only read their history books.
I would suggest they read the footnote about what happened to Hitler's supporters who were instrumental in putting him in power between the time he was elected and the time he ascended to be a wartime leader. In fact, what happened to them seems to be a bit of a pattern, from a historical sense, of course.
The infamous and always witty Historian, Tom Bogan, can certainly do much to enlighten us on the fate of the supporters of fascist dictators (editors note: A fascist dictator may have actually been a person voted into office by popular vote and not necessarily one who achieves power by means of a violent overthrow of a government. Also note that references of this kind may have been deleted from history books to keep from scaring sheeple people....it's for the children).

Not to steal Tom's thunder, but a lot of the people who put Hitler in power ended up shot. That includes:
- his astrologer
- Ernst Rohm, the head of the SA (of course he was a flaming queer - when Hitler went to personally arrest him, he was in bed with his chauffeur - so that may have had something to do with it)
- a large number of the SA leadership under Rohm
Mao did the same thing to a number of his followers - before doing it to the whole of China (remember the famines of the late 1950's?). Lenin had Trotsky and others whacked, and Stalin regularly cleared out the Politburo when he felt like it.

Pathfinder said most of what I was going to, The only high point he seemed to have skipped was that it was NOT Lenin and the Bolsheviks that overthrew Russia's Kerensky Govt. (The Czar had been deposed months earlier, in March), it was a coalition of leftist and moderate parties of which the Bolsheviks were only a small portion, but when the dust settled the Bolsheviks had the security services and the guns which they used to "Purge" (kill and imprison) the members of all the other parties.

Helen should start looking over her shoulder. I mean, hell, she's about 600 years old.......nobody would be suspicious if BHO's people gave her the Vince Foster treatment, except with a heart attack or stroke instead of a "suicide".

I just continue to hope that, one day soon, even the lamestream media will realize what a sham BHO is.
They got him elected and fawned at his feet while he controled their every word. It's hard to believe that it's taken this long for them to catch on.
Sooner or later it's got to get a little aggravating when you're being lead around by a ring in your nose.

Not long, I'm sure the Obama egomaniacs will choke on the reality of the situation once it hits them.

You guys have pretty much hit it right on the head, so there's not anything I could add.
But if you'll grant me a boon........
When I read the title to the thread, I began laughing hysterically............. why, you might ask?
The name in the title is the same as my Mother-in-Law.
I'm still chuckling......... and, yes......she's usually pissed about something. ;D

Mothers in Law are like that ;D

Now that's funny Peg. ;D

Look, I want to avoid politics here.I just want to give Helen some props. She's been on the White House beat since Kennedy. All of it for UPI. When the Moonies (who own the Washington Times, which says all you need to know about that paper) bought them out, she quit. You've got give credit for balls.

Washington Times is a Conservative paper.
Does that mean that Josef Mengele deserves credit for retaining his Nazi beliefs until his death in the 70's ?

Three points
A) I don't get the Nazi reference (PS be careful not to sling that word aroud as it cheapens it, and those who died to defeat it. Try facist or tyrannical instead. Not being PC, just honoring our dead.)
2) The Wash Times isn't conservative. It is the house organ of a cult. The Unification Church of the Reverend Sun Young Moon (the reincarnation of Jesus,in case he hasn't informed you via a vision or phrophetic dream, or at least e-mail :P).
3) I just admire the spunk of someone who can say to an institution they they loved, when its been bought out by someone unworthy, to "Kiss my foot (or other more accessible portions of my anatomy) and walk out the door.
Thats all.

FQ13
I was Going to use an old time Communist but I can't pronounce OR SPELL most of their names.
I used Mengele because I've read up on the search for him, everyone else would have an idea who I meant and his name is fairly easy to spell,
Here's something for you to think about (No sarcasm or insult intended, this time) Until we can make fun of, laugh at, and generally ridicule, the architects of they Holocaust, we have not won the war. As long as mentioning their names brings that little shudder they still have power even in death. In order for their power to be broken we need to see them for what they truly were, not "Evil personified", but small panicked men risen far above their abilities, scrambling madly to hold together a successful con job. While we should always remember and seek to prevent a repeat of their actions, their names need to be forgotten so that they lose not only the war, and their power, but even their very individuality, condemned to be just Those nazi bastards back in the 40's" the same as we talk today of "the vikings" or "the Huns".

For the most most part well said. BUT, I beleive that good and evil exist, they are just scarce on the ground. The vast majority of us live in various shades of grey. Such is life, we do what we do, some better than others. But there are those rare instances when true good, and true evil, rear their heads on this earth. Mother Thersea, Pol Pot, Hitler. They deserve to be remembered. The whole Nazi ideaology, one of the right to conquer and exterminate based on which womb you crawled out of, not who you were or what believed, was one such instance. We should get those little shudders, as it reminds us that they weren't monsters, they were just like us, only raised in a system, or so perverted and "lucky" that they could build one, where their vilest thoughts (our vilest thoughts) were able to be made manifest. I would reccomend Hannah Arendt's (a socialist, but not a stupid woman) The Banality of Evil, on the trial of Eichmann. I don't agree with her completely, but it is a damn scary book,and one worth reading all the same.

I've read excerpts of it while researching Himmler, it is part of what put on that track that they weren't actually "Evil" men per se. many of them were quite commendable men if left at the limits of their abilities, for example Himmler was a skilled administrator, Goring was a decorated ace, Hitler was a decorated soldier and a fine NCO, but when the chaos of 1920's Germany lifted them above their abilities, they began to disregard "right and wrong" in favor of expediency, morally there is no difference between a Judge who gives a murderer probation because the jail is full and a warden, (or Camp Commander)
who has a group of prisoners shot to make way for the next batch, (That was how the organized death camps actually started)
I see to many signs of the same type of thinking from our own Govt, only instead of "Jews" we have "Extremests" I'm not talking about the Muslims who actually are a proven threat. but the "Right wing extremist threat " portrayed by DHS.
