| Iowa Congressman Apologizes for |
| 2006-06-23 |
| NEW YORK Rep. Steve King, a Republican from Iowa, apologized to Last Saturday, Rep. King, while discussing the death of terrorist leader Abu Musab al-Zarqawi at the state Republican convention, said, "What occurred to me that morning is something that I imagine a lot of you have thought about and he's probably figured it out by now. There probably are not 72 virgins in the hell he's at and if there are, they probably all look like Helen Thomas." Too bad he apologized. |

| #8 I cannot imagine waking up each morning and looking at Helen Thomas. It would make one consider doing a Kevorkian...even if you were in excellent health. |

| #7 LMFAO......I think King's comment was hysterical. Helen Thomas could make a freight train take a dirt road. |

| #4 I heard about this incident on the news yesterday evening driving home from the Kenai peninsula. I bust a gut laughing! The apology made it a source of innocent merriment through the idiots at the MSM, who passed it on. |

| #3 Heck, it's probably his staff busily stuffing all press fax machines with the "apology" that repeats that line. Smart move to make it an "apology" so that he could get them to repeat it again and again. It's a great line for people and I'm sure he wants to get credit for it. |
