Helen Thomas says she will commit suicide if Dick Cheny runs for president

If Canada eats Dick Cheney, I’ll never vote for okra again.

Will he jerk off, with the door locked, after doing random work?

You know, if you take the last word out of your first two sentences….here, let me take care of that for you.

I was beside myself worried about that!

It’s news because she’s part of the White House press corps…and they’re supposed to be unbiased.

If Thin Lizzy becomes an SDMB member, I’ll commit suicide.

:rolleyes:

Tell it to the marine!

Unbiased in their reporting. She hasn’t ceded any of her own rights as a member of the fourth estate – she’s still entitled to her own opinion, however hyberbolic.

I think, if one is a member of the WH Press Corps, one must adhere to a certain standard, shall we say, in one’s demeanor in speaking “off the record.”

If Okra becomes a Canadian, I’m never eating Thin Lizzy’s okra or masturbating in Dick Cheney’s dog house ever again.

If you commit suicide and move to Canada, can you still get complete health coverage?

If Oprah was Canadian…

Aw, screw it.

That’s not off the record, it’s just a personal opinion.

I think a lot of posters on the other side would be upset if a prominent journalist said she’d kill herself if Hillary runs for President.

Hey! I am not mindless! :smiley:

Oh, I agree. It’s a stupid statement and does nothing for her credibility. She is a public figure and unlike Susie Nobody down the street, who may threaten suicide if Cheney runs for Pres (he won’t, he has too many health problems) Thomas’s statements are listened to.

Besides, didn’t she call the President a liar when she made the statement? “All we need is one more liar?”

Ahhh, she could be going all the way back to George Sr. on that comment.

For a little context on this, by the way, Thomas has long been mad at the administration because of perceived mistreatment and disrespect of her on its part.

The thought of Dick Cheney rubbing one out damn near gave me a heart attack.

I think both sides have given as good as they’ve gotten.

Not if it was Ann Coulter.

Though there could be mass suicide on the Left if there was ever general agreement that Coulter was a “prominent journalist”.
