Clarence Thomas drank heavily, watched porn

[California Girl]

This reactionaries in this thread are fun. I can't think anyone has actually read the piece, either. (Well, given the demonstrated lack of comprehension and seeing things that aren't there of some, I suppose I can imagine the insanity.) From the piece:

....

McEwen, a former prosecutor and administrative law judge who has written her own memoir and is seeking a publisher, ....

"I suppose I would call it [watching pornography] a fetish or a hobby," she said of Thomas. "It was something that was very important to him, something that he talked about." ....

... she said, adding that he "drank to excess" when they first met and might have been a "raving alcoholic" at that time. When he gave up alcohol, she said, he became "angry, short-tempered, asexual" and obsessive with ambition and what she called "weird things," such as long runs in the dark before dawn.

....​

[Emphasis added] Those are just some excerpts.

So, an ex-administrative law judge is in a position to diagnose alcoholism? This ex girlfriend never said porn addiction, and if she did, again, she is qualified to make such a diagnosis? No. I know plenty of recovering alcoholics and plenty of them are quirte balanced individuals. Apparently Thomas has over 30 years of sobriety.

And, I almost spit my coffee out when I read the part about Thomas doing 'weird things' such as running before dawn. LMFAO! Around here, because of the heat and crazy commute times, there are tons of runners, walkers, and bikers out pre-dawn and late at night. Plenty. LOL.

The reactions here are just surreal.

Well, that clarifies it a whole hell of a lot to me. She's a publicity whore hoping to score a publisher by trashing the guy.

Stick a fork in the discussion, it's over. The smart people win. This is bullshit.

Meh, fair enough...she has no publisher yet. It would still be odd as fuck for any lawyer to defame a sitting SCOTUS Justice without proof.

As for alcoholism and porn addiction, if you truely feel only professionals can make these diagnosises, you dun know any. At least not well.

A five year old can spot an alcoholic who is still drinking.

Oh, I know several recovering alcoholics quite well. And, I have a hell of a lot of experience with alcoholism. But, this isn't about me, Madeline.

And Thomas has over 30 years of sobriety, according to even an ex girlfriend.

Pretty funny, huh?

Somehow I have a visual of a large-mouthed bass, right now.

To my fellow Conservatives. It's the year 2010! Watching porno is not a big deal.

I say that it's not even a big deal if POTUS had gay sex on crack in the back of a limo

More wishful thinking, CG?

If she said it on "Larry King Line" and it was not true and could not be proven to be true, she's a self-destructive fool about to learn to enjoy life as a homeless woman.

You seem to be confused about evidence, CG. If she has "bad motives" but "good evidence" the facts are nonetheless as she alleges.....her avarice does not render the allegations irrelevant nor the proof of them inadmissable.

I am just amazed at you two. Such flawed, twisted logic to defend a man who is clearly a vicious misogynist, all because you *think* he is conservative.

Neither one of you are being honest here.

Shame, shame, shame.

Holy shit, Maddie. That is breathtakingly stupid. People lie on interviews all the time. I honestly cannot believe that you said that.

As TPS might say....

The fact of the matter is that you know fuck all about what I think of Thomas.

Your idea that those who analyze information is equivalent to defense is freaky bizarre.

Seriously.




Idiot.

 

[Madeline]

Uh huh. So you have nothing, Si?

I thought not.

Lemme see if I can make this any clearer. "Shoot the messenger" does not work on evidence.

If I was a conservative I could salute Hitler, dress up as a SS Waffen and be a misogynist and si dodo and and California Brat would give me a pass.

Whenever gossip is actually evidence, I'm sure that I will need to recalibrate the thermometer in hell.
