Friday, November 11, 2005 Thomas:Wipes the Floor w/McClellan's Sorry Ass Now I know that Helen Thomas comes from Lebanese Christians, but regardless if she's Catholic or not, I'll be pushing for her to became St Helen of Integrity & Unrelenting Perservence after her death. The unrelenting ass whippings she doles out to Scottie the Lying Dough Boy are a thing of pure beauty. Here is Editor & Publisher's take on their latest torture exemption tussle. And her latest column takes Scottie directly on and delivers some mighty blows: "Obviously, McClellan is on a short leash... He doesn't dare deviate from his prepared answers, no matter what the question, and his responses tend to be robotic. His own style of evasion, often ignoring a question and turning to another reporter... and as a result, fewer reporters are showing up at the WH unless they are alerted that it will be a big news day. It worked in the early yrs of the Bush WH which had a roll-over & play-dead press corps to deal with. But lately, WH reporters have become more challenging, more skeptical... and as far as reporters are concerned, McClellan's answers leave a lot to be desired." I wonder if old Helen will be rounded up and labeled an enemy of the state after this column hits? And ya have to wonder if Scottie looks upon Helen's daily questions w/the same dread that a nursing home resident does when daily enema time arrives? |
