Cut "entitlements."

Helen Thomas wouldn't even have the nerve to say that. ;-)

I feel sorry for her. She could have left the scene as a class act.

Funny how everyone slams "entitlements" right up until it affects their
social security, medicare, police/fire/infrastructure in their neighborhood,
EMT availability, library access, etc. Then, it's don't touch. If people
don't want entitlements, then they should vote against them and vote out any
politician that promotes funding them. So far, that hasn't happened, and
there doesn't appear to be any strong movement to do so.
