Remembering when “liberals” used to be opposed to anti-semitism. Also, Helen Thomas’ Weimar moment is a reflection on “progressive” America.
And you’ll be as shocked as I am to learn that the rabbi who outed the woman who expressed her vile views at a Jewish-History event has received hate mail and death threats. I’m sure they’re peaceful hate mails and death threats, though. Because these people are all about peace. Or so they tell us.

A blast from the past. Tony Snow: “Thanks for the Hezbollah view, Helen.”
I miss Tony Snow. I disagree with the title, though. Helen Thomas has never required anyone’s assistance to look like a fool.
My God the difference between this guy and that wooden clown Gibbs is really striking, isn’t it?
Almost like Snow was a professional, huh?
Does Helen Thomas ever do actual journalism? Any blog commenter can do what she does at White House briefings.
Helen’s parents were both Lebanese immigrants, so the title that Snow gave her is ethnically fitting (her real last name is Antonious).
And yeah, I miss Snow too. Gibbs is such a know nothing idiot, and an insult to his fictional namesake, Jethro Gibbs of NCIS.
