Wow. Just… wow.

This story about the doddering doyenne of the Washington press corps is stunning on so many levels:
It’s surprising — nearly unbelievable — that someone who’s spent pretty much her entire adult life being “on the record” would make such patently bigoted statements.
This would be akin to, say, William F. Buckley suggesting that blacks should go back to Africa.
Except, of course, that Thomas hasn’t a fraction of the intelligence Buckley had.
Or wit.
Or class.
Or talent.
Even more of a surprise: Helen Thomas is still alive. I thought all her hatred would have consumed her by now.
