UPI’s iconoclastic Helen Thomas made waves earlier this week with her comments to The Hill’s Al Eisele where she said she’d kill herself if Dick Cheney ran for president. “The day I say Dick Cheney is going to run for president, I’ll kill myself. All we need is one more liar,” she told him. Drudge got ahold of her words and yadda yadda yadda, they were more fodder for the right’s “vast left-wing media conspiracy.”
