 Helen Thomas The Vitriol of a Woman Scorned   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
Recently, in an impromptu interview with a NewsMax correspondent, Thomas, who has moved from front and center at White House press briefings to the back row because of her vocalized hatred for the president, ripped into both President Bush and Secretary of State Nominee Condoleezza Rice.
In fact, the argument can be made that it was this group of 527s, and Thomas herself, through their use of unfounded rhetoric, untrue statements, racism and liberal scare tactics, that were using terror as a tool to re-capture the White House for their liberal agenda.
Thomas accused Rice of lying to the president about WMD in Iraq when the world now knows it was George Tenet, a holdover from the Clinton Era, who completely dropped the ball with regard to US Intelligence and the dissemination of intelligence from around the world.

 PipelineNews.org - The RIGHT News...RIGHT Now
Thomas blamed Bush for deaths and charged that he employed subterfuge to launch a war: "Your decision to invade Iraq has caused the deaths of thousands of Americans and Iraqis.
Fact - Helen Thomas is an Islamist apologist, and that characterization has nothing to do with her Lebanese heritage.
Thomas' jaunty welcome to "fellow terrorists" three days before the third anniversary of America's worst terror event is disgustingly inappropriate as is her comparison of terrorist to freedom fighters, something that could have easily come from the lips of al-Qaeda theorist Ayman Al-Zawahiri.

The purpose of the interviews was to determine the candidates' degree of acceptability to this important constituency.
Pressler told me that "social conservatives have nothing to fear from a George W. Bush presidency.'' Farris said Bush promised him that, as president, he would make sure government leaves the growing home school movement alone and would protect it from encroaching federal agencies.
Social conservatives want to win the next election, so they are willing to abandon the candidates who might more clearly articulate their beliefs but can't attract the vast middle necessary to any political victory.

 Even Bush Must Explain Himself - Helen Thomas
In a book published this week, the president is quoted as saying that because he is the "commander" he doesn't have to explain his positions.
While Bush has spoken to the people about the war on terrorism and has made clear his personal desire to wage a separate war on Iraq's Saddam Hussein, he runs one of the most secretive administrations in recent history.
President George W. Bush must explain early and often where he stands on the big issues of the day and why -- that is, if he wants to retain the high level of public support that is indispensable for any major presidential endeavor.

The two or three opinions that were expressed said go for it so I gave it my all and can now definitely state that Dural is eminently suitable for this project.

Before doing so, Chatterbox weeded out those intellectuals who were known mainly for working in government, on the theory that these folks were usually quoted not because of their brilliance but because of their proximity to power.
Chatterbox next eliminated from this list Arthur Miller, on the grounds that it was way too labor-intensive to go through all 1,891 citations and separate out those for Miller the law professor.
Chatterbox left George Will in, but should warn readers that his citation count is inflated by more than a few false friends.
