I'd call that a nice upgrade...

Helen Thomas replacement for commencement speaker

June 9, 2010 11:53:47 AM from JoeUser ForumsJoeUser Forums

According to DC area "blog" site DCRTV.com a replacement has been named for the commencement speaker engagement that had been slotted for anti-Israeli journalist Helen Thomas:

Schieffer To Replace Thomas At Grad Ceremony - 6/9 - CBS News DC veteran Bob Schieffer will replace longtime White House correspondent Helen Thomas as the commencement speaker at Sunday's graduation ceremony at Walt Whitman High School in Bethesda. Thomas resigned earlier this week after making controversial comments about how the Jews should leave Palestine.....

I'd call that making something a lot better than lemonade out of lemons.

Seriously, Schieffer is a class act.  Replacing bitter old *itch Helen Thomas is an upgrade in and of itself, but to have gotten Schieffer to come in is a great upgrade.

She lost any shred of credibility long before this past week.

Yes, great choice for a replacement, then again almost anyone would have been better.

Except to liberals and the media (but then I repeat myself).  They tolerate any amount of bigotry and hatred if you say you are one of them.
