The Crazy Rants of Samantha Burns

But, after Thomas's incessant whining about not being able to question him, Bush finally gave in a smidge and answered one question from the bat:

I'd like to ask you, Mr. President, your decision to invade Iraq has caused the deaths of thousands of Americans and Iraqis, wounds of Americans and Iraqis for a lifetime. Every reason given, publicly at least, has turned out not to be true. My question is: Why did you really want to go to war? From the moment you stepped into the White House, from your Cabinet -- your Cabinet officers, intelligence people, and so forth -- what was your real reason? You have said it wasn't oil -- quest for oil, it hasn't been Israel, or anything else. What was it?

And, for all those out there that for some odd reason are stumped on this question, the second Bush press secretary, Scott McClellan, lays it out for you:

Well, first of all, the Iraqi people, we have heard from many of them who have expressed their appreciation--[Thomas interrupting]—for the removal of a brutal and oppressive regime. [Thomas interrupting.] Second of all, Zawahiri, bin Laden’s number two leader, has talked about how Iraq is the central front in the war on terrorism. [Thomas interrupting] We know that the terrorists want to create a safe haven from which they can plan and plot attacks. The stakes are high in Iraq, and that’s why it’s critical that we prevail in Iraq. Because it’ll be a major blow to the ambitions of the terrorists. They don’t want us in the Middle East. The Middle East is a dangerous region of the world. It has been a breeding ground for terrorism, a breeding ground where people have flown planes into building and attacked innocent civilians across the world. And that’s why it’s so critical that we prevail in Iraq as well, and we will, and the Iraqi people no longer live under a brutal, oppressive regime—a regime that was responsible for the systematic torture and killing of people who simply spoke out against that regime.

But, back to the moron.

Helen Thomas has also spouted off moronic remarks such as

"I have never covered a president who actually wanted to go to war. Bush's policy of pre-emptive war is immoral - such a policy would legitimize Pearl Harbor. It's as if they learned none of the lessons from Vietnam."

You've never cover a president whose country was severely attacked and plotted against in this way.

So whatever, you bologna.

I do, however, find her comment regarding Dick Cheney and his potential run for president quite amusing:

"The day Dick Cheney is going to run for president, I'll kill myself. All we need is another liar...I think he'd like to run, but it would be a sad day for the country if he does."

Hey, I wonder if she is means she'll do a suicide bombing like her heros.

And, speaking of her "Hezbollah view" (thanks to Tony Snow, the latest White House Press Secretary, for that one), Thomas once questioned the first press secretary, Ari Fleischer, about civilian casualties:

At the earlier briefing, Ari, you said that the President deplored the taking of innocent lives. Does that apply to all innocent lives in the world? And I have a follow-up... My follow-up is, why does he want to drop bombs on innocent Iraqis?

Obviously, he doesn't.

Thomas, why don't you take your other moonbat friends and go sympathise with the enemy on their own turf.

I mean, the semi-global, anti-terrorism strategy is nothing like the goals of the terrorists.

Just looking at recent actions is enough to understand the despicable nature of those creeps. And, I'm talking about how Hezbollah is blocking the civilians from fleeing the country, hence using them as pawns in the war.

Now that's f*cked up right there.

But, you go on Thomas. You go on and sympathise with the enemy.

Maybe they'll find a nice, fat, juicy suicide bomb to strap onto your back next.

(Oh wait, they're saving you to be one of their 72 virgins in heaven)

Anyhow, I've taken all I can take. There is so much more moronic behaviours and actions of this moron, but I just can't bare it. Congratulations again to What the hell is wrong with you?

PS - I did consider just making this article a series of pictures of Helen Thomas, but MR.BIG had a good point: if I did that I'd lose all my readers because they'd die from massive heaves.
