#1 These two are from the same family, ugly liberals.

#2 Ugh! She is just as ugly inside as outside.

I didn't think it was possible.

#3 disgusting toad - see if her colleagues cover for her? I bet they do - they hate the Jooooos too. Obama's right with her

#4 No suprise. Communist Russia had issues with Jews as well. The real surprise is how many Jews support communist ideas when they tend to end up the scapegoat all the time.

#5 So in the end Helen Thomas is a liberal antisemite. Seems like there is a contradiction in terms there.

#6 Most Christians, and many conservatives support Israel, so the left obviously cannot.

Oh and Helen Thomas should be fired.

#7 Is it ever to old to be Bitch-slapped?

#8 Juden Raus (Jews out) - the cry of the Nazi Party, echoed by modern liberals.

Demand she be fired for bigotry.

Helen you crotchety old bitch, Where did those Jews in Poland and Germany come from? Hmm?

What's next, telling Blacks to go back to Africa?

#9 Fire her for anachronism. Or ugliness.

#10 the email for her editor, Linda Bagley, at Hearst newspapers is 'lbagley@hearst.com' if you'd like to express your opinion

#11 Yeah, the Juice should go back to where they came from - Biblical Palestine. Oh, wait! Isn't that in the Middle East somewhere?

Actually, I'm kind of impressed (but not in a good way) that Helen actually said this and didn't appear to be drunk at the time. The real question here is not what to do about Helen Thomas but why no one has harpooned this old walrus and rendered her blubber for lamp oil.

#12 Is it ever to old to be Bitch-slapped?

Bumper sticker that applies to Helen: "I'd slap you but sh*t splatters!"

#13 Beauty is only skin deep. Ugly goes all the way through.

#14 Comments surely to land Helen a front row seat at the next Obama press conference.... oh wait!

#16 Too easy.

#17 Some of my ancestors were farmers and Jews, and came from Russia. The Czar did not like them, which was an understatement. We ain't going back home, Helen.

Or as Fred Sanford used to say, "Back to your cave, bat!"

#18 Helen Thomas told, "Go back to the kennel you came from."

#19 Go back to the kennel

That would be Lebanon.

#21 Just wish she'll go back to the crypt she shambled out of.

#22 Hat tip Frank G. Sent an email calling for her termination with cause.

#23 Instapundit has a couple of links on the subject, posted at 6:21 p.m. today. Go there to get his links. I tried posting it earlier, but the electrons got eaten, so this try is more abbreviated.

HELEN THOMAS UPDATE: Lanny Davis says Helen Thomas must go.

Plus, Helen Thomas Dropped By Speaking Agency.

Also: Translating Helen Thomass non-apology apology.

UPDATE: ADL Says Helen Thomas Apology Insufficient.

#24 Again from Instapundit (he's cooking with gas today!):

CRAIG CRAWFORD cuts Helen Thomas loose.

Mr. Crawford recently published a book co-written with Ms Thomas, and planned on more. The comment thread is interesting. "It's what they know that isn't so."

#25 Dementia.

Sad.

Still, dementia.

It happens, but it reflects stuff that has been there all along.

#26 This was probably just Helen's way of saying "I'm retiring. Now." She was even all dolled up for the announcement.

Aside from Alzheimer's laying the foundation for the world's biggest Freudian slip, I can't imagine what else would make her feel so empowered that she would say such a thing.
