Helen Thomas: What about the chief of British intelligence saying you were going to fix the facts around the politics?
Dana Perino: I think that that’s been debunked.
Helen Thomas: It’s never been been debunked.
Dana Perino: Well, it’s been debunked by me.
Helen Thomas: Good for you.
Dana Perino: Good for me.

Press Briefing, December 4, 2008Dana Perino
Dana Perino: And believe me, there were some people who really wanted me from the podium to go after MSNBC. And I just thought it was a bridge too far, not something that should be done from the White House. If they want to have the DNC bash Fox News all they want, you know, so be it. But, I would not do it from the White House. I don't think it's presidential, and I think people would see through it.
Brian Kilmeade: And not only did you not go after them, you gave them interviews, as did the president.
Steve Doocy: Sure.
Brian Kilmeade: Gave them all interviews. Read Ronald Reagan’s diaries…
Dana Perino: Well, towards the end we didn’t do a lot with MSNBC. That’s, that is the case.Dana Perino
I don't want to beat an old horse, but it's a bit unfair to compare Helen Thomas to Hezbollah. [..] Clearly, Helen only endorses religious cleansing; she doesn't openly support genocide.

Here's the thing about Scott McClellan. His performance on the podium suggested he was totally incompetent. He was really badly suited to that job. He hated the public attention and being in front of the cameras. But behind the scenes, well, I've known Scott since 1999, 2000. He actually was inside the circle of trust. That's why his comments are so damning and so critical here, because he did have walk-in access -- something that Tony Snow never did; and Dana Perino would be hard-pressed to have the same kind of relationship.

Helen Thomas, who I used to consider a close friend and who I used to respect, has showed herself to be an anti-Semitic bigot.

Press passes can't be that hard to come by if the White House allows that old Arab Helen Thomas to sit within yards of the president.
