WASHINGTON, DC - After an illustrious career and 28 honorary doctorate degrees to date, you might think it’s time to sit back and relax. But Helen Thomas, former United Press International (UPI) White House correspondent, is still out speaking her mind, this time as keynote speaker of the CMD Group’s North American Construction Forecast here.
Thomas spoke first of our two long-running presidential candidates. Of George W. Bush, she said, “He’s says he’s a compassionate conservative. You can’t prove it by me.” Of Al Gore, she noted, “He did not invent the Internet.”
