Even in her personal interactions, she a good person. Not many of those around any more -- good people.

| 6. Any competent and honest US President would be honoring her |
|
at this point in her incredible career. But the spoiled brat, poster boy, artificial, imitation president substitute has to behave like the surly child he is. All else is beyond him.
Helen, the rest of the nation loves you! You ARE the standard for your profession.

| 8. I have emailed her before and have received replies |
|
I haven't gotten a reply from my message I sent her after the dumbasses press conference this week, but I bet I eventually get an answer. Helen's old school. I bet she has a box of thank you cards in her desk drawer (just like I do.)

| 10. I just got a response from her |
|
My email to her:
Ms. Thomas,
I just want to thank you for asking the hard questions during bush's new conferences.
Please, keep after him about his ties to the PNAC. I really believe this is the silent secret of this administration. If more people understood the goals of this orginization it would scare them to death.
Again, thanks for your HARD work.
Her Response:
Thanks; all the ideologues are vanishing or taking cover after their tragic folly-helent
Helen Thomas <helent@hearstdc.com>
Let her know how you feel.

| 11. I received a response from her the other day! I couldn't get over how |
|
quickly she did!
My email - Dear Ms. Thomas, I have been a fan of yours for too many years to even count. Let me put it this way..as a child I remember you at President Kennedy's press conferences. I am writing to thank you, from the bottom of my heart, for not only your brave question to President Bush, but for your follow-up on various news programs yesterday and today. When you mentioned PNAC to Wolf Blitzer, I started to applaud in my home! And if you notice, he was aware of what you were saying about Pres. Bush intending to go to war from day one. You mentioned that the Treasure Secretary talked about it, and Mr. Blitzer filled in the name, Paul O'Neill. Why is our press so bullied by this rogue administration? I post on a wonderful website called DemocraticUnderground.com, and the speculation as to why we don't have a truly free and unbiased press varies between profit margins to blackmail. Once again Ms. Thomas, kudos for speaking truth to power! With love and admiration,
Helen's reply - thank you for those kind words; great to have a friend, heletn

| 13. She's awesome, I have sent her a few notes of encouragement |
|
and to let her know there is someone that loves and appreciates her and she always replies. Sometimes I don't for fear I will be taking up to much of her time. There is three ladys I love above all, my wife, daughter in law to be and Helen Thomas.
