This isn't the first time Thomas has shown her anti-Semitism

Al decided that Tipper's carbon footprint wasn't the only thing that was too big.

Either Obama is a very ignorant person or he has an agenda of doing whatever he can to distroy the American way of life. I don't think he is ignorant so what is he up to? In fact I think he is a very smart person and is doing exactlly what he sat out to do. I would like someone to show me what has he done good for the country since he's been in office. Don't bother searching, you won't find anything. Obama is a very dangerous person and it seems everyday he comes with something else that will bring our country down. When will people in this country wake up?

Helen Thomas What a pathetic joke ! She is the poster child for " Hate your neighbor " Cast her out and NEVER quote her again !

For those who wish to know, that area of the world has never been "Palestine" as in the "homeland of the Palestinian people".

Check your history, folks.

I understand John Lott’s concern over the UN small arms treaty, but he needs to remember that there is only one way to amend the Constitution of the United States, and it isn’t through the signature of the President and the ratification by the Senate. Until the Constitution is amended they’d best watch how they reach for my guns.

i just heard on a news broadcast Thomas is from Lebanon is this true? if it is i can see where sees coming from ans tell her to go back home...

Mr. Goldberg, let's expand the list:

fiscal restraint = $787 Billion stimulus

protect liberty = gun control/ 2nd Amendment repeal efforts

expand Democracy = Statehood for Puerto Rico

reduce unemployment = hire census workers

man made global warming = hubris, tax-and-cap

Universal Healthcare = bankrupt the Western nations with socialist policies

The underlying theme is money for "friends" and taxes for "enemies". It is all about jealousy and greed and power.

This was sent to me by email and is not attributed, although the email referenced a Czech journalist. Thought you might be interested.

"The danger to America is not Barack Obama but a citizenry capable of entrusting a man like him with the Presidency. It will be far easier to limit and undo the follies of an Obama presidency than to restore the necessary common sense and good judgment to a depraved electorate willing to have such a man for their president. The problem is much deeper and far more serious than Mr. Obama, who is a mere symptom of what ails America . Blaming the prince of the fools should not blind anyone to the vast confederacy of fools that made him their prince. The Republic can survive a Barack Obama, who is, after all, merely a fool. It is less likely to survive a multitude of fools such as those who made him their president."

Tolerance, diversity, political correctness, and hate speech are all one way streets.

This woman is a White House reporter? Not only that, I believe one of the most senior ones, BO must love her! Stupid is as Stupid does!!! I don't want too get to biblical but just where the hell does she think the Jewish people lived in the time of Christ and before, in Germany and Poland? They didn't even exist except as a land mass in what is NOW northern Europe. Much to their distress the original Jews were just another group of Arabs. The Muslims believe they've got their religion mixed up hence the intense dislike.

She's not just a bigot, she's the worst kind of bigot, a stupid one!

Just for the record I'm a Christian and have been all my 74 years!

Would Helen Thomas have all humans return to Olduvai Gorge? That seems to be the best guess of "where they came from".

Somebody must have read Rich Galen,s remarks on Helen Thomas. She is gone for the same reason that many of her colleagues on the left should go. They are too biased and can't write an objective,honest report on the administration. What ever happen to honest, truthful reporting and holding the president's feet to the fire? Too far to the left and making too much money to return.

In regards to the Helen Thomas article; I just read that she is stepping down! Happy days are here again!!

And, she is 90? Gads! She should be playing Bingo at the old folks home.

Thankfully, Helen Thomas chair 'IS' now vacant!!!!

im not to sure about bob bikel

Whenever I notice Helen Thomas at a Press Conference she is wearing red (probably so she can be easily spotted in the sea of drab), just as the Democratic States were color-coded in the original instance of color-coded election reporting. Let's see, the Bolsheviks wore red shirts; the USSR flag was red; the PRC flag is red; is there a pattern? Long may she survive in retirement.

Good riddance, Helen Thomas. She was a has-been hack reporter two administrations ago!

Where are the DEFENDERS of the CONSTITUTION,When

we have an ISLAMIC SCHOOLED HALF BREED hiding in

CHICAGO'S POLITICAL CESSPOOL.

Hey get a grip. She's not a politician. If that's the case, get all the politicians who say stupid things to at least step down. Suprising everyone talks about free speech except when someone else is speaking.

If you don't like the POTUS, then you are entitled to a dictator. Get a brain.

This has been in the works ever since we had to start registering the guns!

You are a GOOD, law abiding citizen when you register your guns, so the government knows where the GOOD ones are. Now they can move in and take them, putting them in their hands. Now only them and the BAD have guns, or better still the process just increased the number of BAD ones out there that are armed to control the GOOD in our country. And control they will. We will be under the control of the ignorant scum running this country.

HT is not only too old to function well, she has never been too cognizant of everyday reality and consistently makes inane (read stupid)remarks or statements. She is a reporter (?) not a editorialist. The only people who care about her opinion are a few close friends, and if whe did not share their opinion they wouldn't care either.

According to the news today, her chair IS vacant after she resigned. Good.

If and when they come for my guns, whoever "they" are, there better be more than six of them, because the first six will be doormats leaking vital body fluids all over my front porch!

I just realized that Ms. Thomas' principle requires her - very damned soon - to return to "Lebanon," and to whichever terrorist group "occupies" the neighborhood from which her parents emigrated.

Hasta la vista, Helen.

Hey FREDO. Don’t quit at 6. Get additional magazines, and practice quick reloading. Is it just horribly possible that the lack of teaching the values of our Founding Fathers over decades will someday breed a man in the U.S. military who would shoot a citizen for political reasons? Quick, get out of the pot, the water's getting hotter!

The problem with Helen Thomas is that she is not speaking with any knowledge or understanding of Israel as a Nation. She has no concept of the land that God gave Israel. It covers a lot more territory that the small area which now exists as the Nation of Israel. Of course, in a Nation that is turning their back on God, I guess it is understandable that a lot of Americans don't know and don't care about God's promises to the nation of Israel.

You are right,she does need to retire and read some books on American Heritage, especially on how this Great Country was formed, and how it has grown because it is and always has been a melting pot. Senility may be setting in!!

Thank God for message that the Patriot Post makes available to concerned Americans. Two items in the Monday, June 7 brief, caught my attention. One was highlighting the UN Small Arms Treaty and the other spoke of the Disclose Act that is before Congress. I wish that EVERY American would make themselves aware of these, and other attempts at denying liberty to us, as Americans. Ultimately, if undetered, these kinds of initiatives will bring the chains of tyranny upon us all. As for those who don't know and don't care, Sam Adams said it best, "May your chains set lightly upon you and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen."

Keep up the good work Patriot Post!

Correct me if I'm wrong but I believe the Jews controlled the disputed region from pre-history until about 586BC. At which point, the Kingdom of Judah falls to Nebuchadnezzer, King of Babylon. He captures and destroys Jerusalem (including the First Temple) and exiles the Jews to Babylon.

"Helen, it really looks like the Jews are the original owners. They ARE home, YOU IDIOT!!! Where would like to send the American Indians???

Re Tipper and Al Gore - I think this is definitive proof of Global COOLING!

Dear PP

I want to express the fact I agree with most everything your posting and am glad for your continued efforts to educate the America citizens. The issue is that in Mondays brief, I believe there is a gross error that should be corrected. John Lott's opinion piece apparently is false according to Snopes. Please see

http://www.snopes.com/politics/guns/untreaty.asp

While I do not want to see anymore encroachment on the 2nd amendment, unlike the liberal/progressives we unfortunately have to be accurate in what we say. Please have a look and make the appropriate resolution.

Thanks,

Anthony

What Helen Thomas should have known, given her extreme advanced age is that the ancient lands of Judea and Samaria were JEWISH lands thousands of years before the so called 'Palestinian People' came into being by British mandate. The moslem people of the region were not forced from Israel after the land came under Jewish authority, by the Israeli government, but rather were forced to leave by the moslem authorities of the region. If the moslem peoples had stayed in Jewish controlled land, they would be traitors to Islam and subject to death. Moslem people leaving the nation of Israel were not allowed to become citizens of the countries they went to, but were forced into 'refugee' camps.

Sephardic people, both Jewish and Moslem, have lived in the region for years. They are not the sole racial identity there. Being Jewish or Islamic, is not a racial thing. It is a religious thing. Just as there are blond haired Jews, there are red headed Moslems. There are Moslems from the steppes of Russia and Jews from Europe.

The land the so called 'Palestinian People' are demanding was stolen from Jews during the Diaspora. The Jewish religion just returned to their land. Has no one ever wondered why the 'Dome of the Rock' is built on top of the Temple Mount?? It was a way to demean the Jewish people and deny them their Holiest of places.

On a side note, one might want to query the situation of Lebanon. Once predominantly Marronite Christian (yes, that includes Sephardic Christians), it was brutally raped and it's people murdered to make room for the so called 'Palestiniaan People' could have a larger base to operate from and also to enlarge the areas controlled by Islamic fundamentalists.

Research, research, research. History is on the side of the Jewish people and much later the Christians and much, much later, the moslems.

Re "For the Record" by Jonah Goldberg

The reason Israel is always the "bad guy" is pretty simple. Israel has always been "God's Chosen People" and God said in Genesis that the seed of the woman would bruise the head of Satan. Therefore, Satan hates Israel for it is from them his destruction comes (it already has but has not changed the hate). Since Islam wants destruction of everyone who is not Islamic they are doing Satans wishes by wanting to destroy all Christians and all Jews. Hence the World hates Israel while They worship Satan.

In the June 7 Brief was this comment. ccording to the U.N., guns used in armed conflicts cause 300,000 deaths worldwide every year." The piece was about the UN Small Arms treaty, but am I the only one who sees the irony in this?

Bravo to Ph.D Jerry and FREDO! John Lott states "Americans who care about self-defense have been put on notice". WELL; let me see if I can set the record straight for the gun-ban crowd. We the American Patriots; We the law-abiding American Citizens; We the hard-working, taxpaying, socially responsible gun owners; WE THE PEOPLE ... are putting YOU on notice. "YOU"...WILL NOT take our guns away from us. Not only is it our Constitutional right to keep and bear arms (settled Constitutional law), it is also our GOD GIVEN right to self-defense. Do you think we'll shrink from this threat? Do you think a US Military Veteran will denounce his (her) oath to the Constitution simply to placate the degenerate marxists? Do you think a recipient of the Naval Expeditionary Medal (look it up) will abandon his (her) country, right at the moment when we are needed the most? On the contrary, go ahead and try to take our guns away; go ahead and try.

Great news. Helen Thomas has resigned her position.

http://news.yahoo.com/s/ynews/ynews_ts2435

Rich Galen has it sooooooo right. Helen Thomas is an old, leftist joke. So long Helen. Your soap box has been vacated. Let's hope it is occupied by a less idealogically twisted sister. Sadly, the chances are slim. The Post is wonderful, keep up the good work. It is good to have you in the trenches!

We totally agree with your comments concerning Ms. Helen Thomas. We understand that she has been forced to 'retire' since making her infamous comments bashing Israel--again! What a piece of work this left-wing, liberal mouth-piece has been spewing disinformation and out-right lies for all these years. While we are glad she has been put out to pasture, we bemoan the fact that it didn't happen sooner--MUCH, MUCH sooner. Good riddance, Helen. We won't miss you at all!

ANTHONY, haven't you heard that snopes is not a think tank?

After all these years I now know that Helen Thomas is as ugly on the inside as she is on the outside. I dread to think of all the harm she's caused over her many years of spouting lies and hatred.

How dare those RAg-Heads want to build a Mosque on the very place the Rag-Head brought down in our face. Is it that our number one Rag-head is our President

The push to take back the Congress is great and going well. I think it is just to little to slow. The damage is to great. We have leaders stepping up and are running for a position in congress. What we do not have is any leadership voicing any opposition to the stupidity of this administration. We need the challenge to start. The nation is ready to support a leader and there is no leader. Stop being nice. Yell, shout, scream, at this bunch and challenge them to justify what they are doing. Out shout them every day ware them down.

For too long, we the tolerant have been tolerant of the intolerant. For too long, our voices have been silenced for fear of being called "racist", when it is the intolerant who are the racists and hate-mongers. For too long, we have allowed the minority to dictate to us their low moral standards. We are at a tipping point - either "The Speech" (Ronald Reagan, 1964) meant nothing as we were warned what our fate would be in the future (now the present) or else it is time to put aside the political correctness, the fear of "hurting someone's feelings", time for Conservatives to stand up, be counted, and be not afraid to speak the truth; time to stand up for what James Madison, James Monroe, Thomas Jefferson and others believed and founded this nation upon those beliefs. It is time to make our stand, and what could very well be our final stand less we take back the House and Senate in 2010, and the House in 2012. Or else the Revolutionary War, The War Between the States, World War II and the current war against Islamic fascism were and are for nothing. I am Riverside Rebel, and I AM a Patriot and US Navy Submarine Veteran.

Thank you Patriot post!! Nowhere else have I seen a warning about the planned UN small arms treaty assault on the most important of all American freedoms. Without guns we could not speak out.

This is a serious assault on American freedom of speech. Of course, the mainstream media has already abdicate dthier responsibility, nowhere more vividly than in coverage of the "freedom flotilla"... Why is it that just Today I am hearing the radio conversation s of the Israeli captains advising of the blockage and warnings to stop. In reply - an hostile voice responds - "Shut up Jews - go back to Auschwitz" and then "US remember 911". Why is this not all over the mainstream media??

I suggest that those fearing religious expression should look beyond the "establishment clause" on the other side of the comma and read the "free exercise thereof clause". But then that might mean they have to acknowledge the clear Judeo-Christian values ingrained in our founding principles.

With regard to schools and the proposed new bailout for union teachers. I have a simple idea to secure funding from an existing source. Look in front of the school at the BUSES lined up, that are wasting fuel, and even polluting the air with CO2. Why??

To drive kids across the county to achieve racial equality in the school yard. Are we not there yet??

Do we really still have to do that. I am willing to bet that if given a choice -- everyone (except the union bus drivers and racial activists) would prefer to send their kids to the neighborhood school where the parents could actually be more easily involved. Seperate,,,maybe,, depending on the neighborhood,,, but equal, absolutely. This is so simple -- but not a word from those planning to make the system even more complex... This should be a topic of conversation. It is Time to Stop Busing Kids.

Oh yeah, Stop the damn oil leak. Quite trying to salvage oil - and plug the hole. If they insist on siphoning oil, then drop a huge plastic condom with a weighted ring at the bottom, bolt it with anchor bolts to the sea floor if neccesary. Attach a hose to the other end of it and watch the oil rise. Protect the shorelines with hay/natural fibers to absorb floating patches. Build the sand berms, do it all,, now... or Barrak is gonna take your name and come kick your a**.

There will never be Life, Liberty, and the Persuit of Happiness until the Electorial College is, or its consept is done away with. We cannot have a government that is picked by incompetants and susceed with a logical future.

My wife asked me what I thought of the Israeli blockade incident. I told her that anything Israel does is OK with me because they're the only nation on Earth with enough chutzpah to directly confront terrorists without worrying what the rest of the world thinks. I have watched world events for quite some time and can cite no incident of unprovoked Israeli attack. It has always been a retaliatory response to terrorist aggression albeit in terms that terrorists understand.

Ref Jonah Goldberg's commentary of 6/7: He left out that we must also blame Ronald Reagan, George H.W. & his son. Obviously,according to the current political mentality, these guys were also anti-Semites.

Bob, your comment on the Electoral College, the Founders were wise in this concept, actually, if the Electoral College would have asked the question on the "PAPERS"( all of this intrigue on the "natural born" question would have been settled) before the State certified the Election. The question would have been "answered" or the certification of the election would have been held. I believe we had a discussion about this in another post.

I might suggest a book to you, "The Importance of the Electoral College" by Dr. George Grant. It is very thorough and enlightening as to the great wisdom our Beloved Founders had and their "never ending" checks and balances, because they knew the "heart of man."

Has the Electoral College every used this Check? NO, because we never had to deal with a problem like this, where someone would "deliberately" come to power, who was not qualified under the Constitution, and then boldly refuse to settle the issue with documentation that should be Public information because of the Office in question.

Much that is going on in Washington today, is "unprecedented", we certainly want to hold fast to the confident of our Beloved Constitution. The Founders feared God and loved their people.

For God & Country

The American

Regarding the Helen Thomas position, everyone seems to have overlooked the obvious. When Moses led the Israelites from Egypt, they were promised a land of milk and honey across the Jordan. Guess what? That's the land where Israel now exists. That was some thousands of years B.C. It was later events that caused occupation of that land by nations other than Israel. In 1948, following WWII, allies decided to give the land back to Israel and Jews have been defending it against attempts to run them out ever since. The idea that Jews are occupying Palestinian land is ludicrous. Helen Thomas is either so ignorant that she hasn't a clue about history, or so liberal and biased against the Jews that she is willing to lie about history to support her viewpoint. Good riddance!

Believe it or not, I actually know someone who went on a rant today about Free Speech and how Helen Thomas should have been able to say whatever she wanted because it's "free speech." What really got me, though, was that she said, "How come conservatives are allowed to say whatever they want to?" She used Ann Coulter as an example. If I was interested in starting an argument I would have asked her what planet she's been living on lately. Of course this person also completely believes that Israel was in the wrong (even after I quoted The Patriot about what happened) and told me what "really" happened, which I'm sure she got from the MSM. I'm not sure what boggles my mind more: that she actually thinks conservatives can say whatever they want and don't get any crap for it, or that she thinks Helen Thomas is a "great" human being.

Bob - if you want to abolish the Electorial College consider what happend when the 17th amendment was passed. It in effect changed us from a Constitutional Republic to a democracy. In a democracy 51% of the people can vote to kill the remaining 49% and it is all democratically done. Remember Adolph was democratically elected. What should be done is repealing the 25th amendment so we don't have any more appointed Presidents, one was too much. Also the 26th amendment should be repealed. Can anyone explain this to me? An 18 year old is mature enough to vote, but not mature enough to buy a beer. Were the various state legislators standing on their heads when the ratified it?

Quote from Cal Thomas excerpt above...." President Obama said it is important to learn 'all the facts and circumstances' behind the incident before reaching conclusions." .....Yeah, Like OBAMA's decisive leadership conclusions about the Henry Louis Gates,Jr arrest by a conscientious policeman leading to the Rose Garden Beer Summit, OR OBAMA's decisive leadership conclusions about OBAMA Administrations UNread AZ Immigration Law modeled on the UNenforced & UNread US Immigration Law.

You gave a real and truthful characterization of Helen Thomas, as well as most of the main stream, liberal, media! They DO NOT report the news, they report their personal opinions and agendas!

As the old saying goes, "they can have my gun, when they can pry my cold dead fingers from it."

I know there would be many cold, dead fingers to pry on both sides, but before that could even happen, an armed revolution would remove by force any government who attempts to erase our 2nd Amendment Rights, and our rights to protection against government tyranny and oppression.

Go for it, please, “make my day!”

Good Morning,

Can you please let me know the source of your Reagan quote? Your website has a treasur trove of his talks and history, and I was not able to locate it. Thanks for your help.

Lee Robey

Yo, Timmons, MD. CO2 is not a "pollutant". Without CO2 nothing would grow on this planet. Look up photosynthesis.

As to the GORES, who cares?

As to HT, who cares? She's gone. Good Riddance.

As to our country, you better care because it's being taken away from you piece by piece. All this other drivel is a distraction.

Yo Buzz! You are absolutely correct Sir... My mention of the Buses spewing CO2 is simply to get the attention of the greens...and stop all that expense of dragging our kids all over town under the pretense of ensuring racial "equal opportunity".. Like you I am amused that CO2 is suddenly some poisonous chemical that must be collected, concentrated and injected into the earth's crust in order to save the planet.... What are those guys smoking??? Amazing to me that the jogging environmentalist is huffing and puffing out CO2 like a SUV and is not at all concerned...( not that he needs to Be!)

My only interest in the Gore's is seeing Al held accountable for his attempted fraud in the Global Warming carbon credit scam. Put him in the same jail with Barney Frank and Chris Dodd.

We have one chance to save the country, before it starts looking like a 1940's wartime newsreel. Remember, even a so called "conservative" Democrat is a Democrat first and conservative only if they let him vote that way...

If they pass Cap and Tax and allow the "tax Cuts' to expire -- Jimmy Carter's misery index will look like the "good times".

All politicians say stupid things, and Helen Thomas is no exception. To criticize a state - ANY state - EVERY state - is the civic duty of every responsible individual.

It is not "antisemitic" to criticize Israel. By declaring political statehood they relinquished the immunity from public criticism we commonly extend as a courtesy to ethnic and religious groups, rightly or wrongly.

EVERY state is a disposable human creation and its justification to exist rests on the way it serves the well being of all persons living under its jurisdiction. The "right to exist" of a state is NOT inherent but is assigned to it - revocably - by those it governs - ALL of them, regardless of race, creed or national origin.

One test of liberty in any state is to ask: Can every person living within its boundaries lawfully keep and bear arms? Any Israel resident denied arms is not a free citizen but a subject, a perpetual servant, the property of a master.

Regarding the possible confiscation of citizens' firearms by the world socialist desire for the abolition of the Second Amendment. If that travesty ever happens the last guns you will see are those aimed at you by the firing squad.

Ditto to Rod. I believe that Obama is intentionally destroying this country and everything it stands for. I don't believe he is stupid. If the November elections don't bring a big change, I'm not sure we will ever be able to get our country back.

How bout "climate incident"

How many remember the "Civil Rights Movement" of the 50's and 60's? Well I think the people of this country would have a 'GUN RIGHTS MOVEMENT" if our government tried to take away our gun rights. In a way it has already started, we as citizens have to protect/fight for what our founding fathers gave us

each and every day.
