We need to write Helen Thomas and convey our support for the wonderful job she's doing, and how she handled that weasel Scott McClellan. This is the email address I found -- I think it's the correct one: helent@hearstdc.com
Anybody have a different one?

1. You'll probably get a nice, personal reply |

I've seen quite a few acknowledged here on DU. She's a class act.

She responded with a "thank you" to an email I once sent her. She's the best there is.

10. I Missed It But Love Helen |
|
I didn't see her with Scott this pass week. What happened?
I will email her anyway. She answered one of my emails before. Great lady.
I hope when the Democrats get back in the first question from the Press will go to Helen like before. She is democracy in action.

9. Here's what I sent her |

Ms. Thomas, After reading the transcript of today's press conference, I feel compelled to write you and express my appreciation and deep admiration for the work you are doing to force this this White House to give the American public the answers that we deserve. Thank you for your tenacity and your grit in the face of evasiveness, smugness, arrogance, and outright disrespect. You are truly a national treasure, and you restore my faith in the profession of journalism. Thank you.

11. My email to the incomparable Ms Thomas... |
|
Ms Thomas;
Just a short note to thank you very much for your tenacity at today's WH Press briefing. It's become embarrassing for Mr McClellan - obviously, they're trying to hide something, or he would've given you a simple Y or N answer to your question about whether President Bush performed community service during his stint in the Texas ANG. Mr McClellan's evasiveness is a disservice to Mr Bush's constituents, and your persistence when questioning him has been a joy to observe!
Thank you so much, Ms Thomas, for all that you do to bring light and transparency to the most opaque presidential administration in US history! You truly are the greatest!
Warm regards, alg0912

15. Thank you! I really do love her! |
|
It's been said before but I'll say it again... she's a national treasure! History will certainly remember her as the octogenarian who stood up to the most corrupt presidential administration in American history!

13. President Kerry MUST have her front & center at his 1st press conference |
|
I want Helen restored to her rightful spot in the press corps. Bush's retaliation against journalists who ask tough questions is an example of the rottenness of Bush and his entire den of vipers.
Helen rules!
