Justice Clarence Thomas: ‘Northern liberal elites’ worse than segregated South

They aren't "blanket stock accusations"..they are pretty pertinent.

If Thomas didn't sit on the supreme court, the conflict of interest issues would have removed him from his court.

Same with Scalia. I don't know how you defend that nonsense with a straight face.

I find it comical you equate conflict of interests basically with any position you disagree with. If there were coherent cases to be made against either, they would have happened already.

But all you have is your two minute hate against the strict constructionist leaning justices, because we all know people like you love to shit on the constitution when you don't agree with it, and these two call you on it.

Dude..you are something else..you know that?

The group was formed with a $500,000 anonymous donation that came as the Supreme Court was considering Citizens United, a case that ultimately resulted in loosening the restrictions on corporate giving to political campaigns. The anonymous donor was later revealed to be Harlan Crow, the Texas real estate developer. Crow was also a friend of Clarence Thomas', and he was later linked to a scandal involving the justice's failure to publicly disclose gifts from the developer and trips aboard his private jet. (It didn't help that Justice Thomas had also failed to include his wife's $150,000 annual salary from Liberty Central on his financial disclosure forms, which he later had to amend.) In January 2011, the good-government group Common Cause asked the Justice Department to investigate whether Justice Thomas should have recused himself from Citizens United based on his wife's role at Liberty Central. (Common Cause also asked the IRS to revoke Liberty Central's nonprofit status. Nothing came of either request.)
Is Ginni Thomas' Expanding Activism a Problem for Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas? | Mother Jones

Justice Thomas is judging cases which outcomes personally benefit him.

That's called "Conflict of Interest". It's in place for a reason. Because it taints the objectivity of the judge.

Supreme Court Justices are not bound by the rules.

That, should be reprehensible to anyone who cares about the law.

So he's the only justice who has had a similar conflict of interest? or do you just point out his because you don't like him?

How about you go and dig into Ginsberg or Sotomeyer's possible COI's similar to this.

The fact still stands you only care about it because you hate Thomas.
 
What about the two brilliant legal minds Obama picked? The last one was said to have forgotten to turn off her car when she arrived on campus.

Mozart could play some killer music but couldn't read.

Cher can't read.

Richard Branson is dyslexic.

Einstein had Asperger's.

Terry Bradshaw has ADHD.

And I mistakenly stepped on my car keys last night, activating the remote start.


What's your point? Even geniuses like me have their foibles.
 

Poor, poor Uncle Clarence. Thank God his rich white benefactor who literally raised him, who magnaminously paid his way through the best private schools and colleges there are, and taught him to ignore the Civil Rights Movement now says he's fortunate to have not seen racism in the south while growing up.

No shit!

Uncle Herman's rich white sugar daddy paid his way into an exclusive all white high school, an exclusive law college and probably wiped his ass to make him white.

Nothing like good old progressive racists, who save their scorn for Negroes that go off the Democratic Plantation.

In all actuality, Uncle Herman was raised on a plantation, and never left it - that of his daddy's massa who raised him and taught him to be a good little white boy, even to the point of ignoring the civil rights movement. As I said, Suga daddy paid his way to whiteville.

Ironically, Suga Daddy was an executive at Coca Cola in Atlanta. I wonder if he found any pubic hairs on the bottles?

No..actually I did the digging for you to support my statement.

And generally the type of conflict of interest things you folks dig up is that in the "way back" someone worked with someone else.

But heck, bottom line? I think the Supreme Court should have rules concerning recusal.

Then you might as well make up a Supreme Court full of Robots, because people will always have connections with each other, and unless you want to delegate the spouses of SC justices to being locked in a cell 24/7, then you have to deal with it.

You just don't like Thomas, we get it.
 
This idea that one section of the nation is more racist than the other is highly absurd. I am really over this dividing partisan bullshit about who is more racist, Liberals or conservatives.
In my opinion this just shows that everyone is a bunch of whining brats who need to sit in a corner till they learn to act correctly.

Grow up already and stop supporting this type of messages from people in power.

I would have thanked you for your message, but why do I never see you post it in any of the myriad discussions on this topic started by liberals?
 
All you did was make the same blanket stock accusations progressives make about Thomas, without any of the backup you are all of a sudden asking me for.

A coherent rebuttal requires a coherent statement to be made first, and all you provided was the usual douchey liberal tripe you always produce.

But keep it up, it shows everyone the hack you really are.

By "conflict of interest" he means your view is at conflict with his interest...

Why do you call the term "Uncle Tom" racist?

rac·ist
ˈrāsist/Submit
noun
1.
a person who believes that a particular race is superior to another.
synonyms: racial bigot, racialist, xenophobe, chauvinist, supremacist
"he was exposed as a racist"
(racially) discriminatory, racialist, prejudiced, bigoted
"a racist society"
adjective
noun: racist; plural noun: racists; adjective: racist
1.
having or showing the belief that a particular race is superior to another.
"we are investigating complaints about racist abuse at the club"

None of those apply to calling Uncle Herman or a black man Uncle Tom (who was portrayed as a heroic figure, btw) Racism is dependent upon preconcieved stereotypes based on physical features such as skin color. My words about Uncle Herman are based on the truth of his youth, nothing more.

The Real Duck Dynasty Scandal: Phil Robertson's Comments on Race - Jonathan Merritt - The Atlantic

I never, with my eyes, saw the mistreatment of any black person. Not once. Where we lived was all farmers. The blacks worked for the farmers. I hoed cotton with them. I’m with the blacks, because we’re white trash. We’re going across the field .... They’re singing and happy. I never heard one of them, one black person, say, ‘I tell you what: These doggone white people’—not a word! ... Pre-entitlement, pre-welfare, you say: Were they happy? They were godly; they were happy; no one was singing the blues.

You're an ass and a twit. Further discussion with you on the subject is like feeding a cancer

So you can't prove me wrong. Fucking idiot bigot.

Why don't you tell us what followed?

“I remember Martin Luther King came to town, in ’62. He spoke out at the old fairground and it was full of people, black and white.”

And here's a good expose as to why he said what he did. From the horribly conservative The Daily Beast.

Such subtly coded racist rhetoric resonated with voters then, just as Barbour’s revisionist version of history of the South he came of age in resonates with his base now. The man who wants to challenge Obama for the presidency two years from now knows that by keeping a Confederate flag on the wall of his office, publicly praising the leaders of the old Confederacy, and occasionally seeming to slip and say something that gives conniptions to people who would never vote for him anyway, he’s only solidifying his chances of securing the Republican nomination in 2012.

But Haley does let his racist upbringing sneak out now and then...like when he told an employee "he would be reincarnated as a watermelon and placed at the mercy of blacks,”

lol...Phil who? Talk about a lost fifteen minutes of fame. Anyhow, Silly Philly is the same as Barbour. Of course he saw happy niggrahs, because the ones that complained were hanging from trees!
 
Thomas says:

"I was the first black kid in Savannah, Georgia, to go to a white school. Rarely did the issue of race come up.”

uh excuse me. Does anyone see the absurdity of those two sentences together?

It strikes me that Thomas is still butthurt over all things Anita Hill.

And to be fair, what the Senate did to him with Anita Hill was pretty reprehensible.

I don't believe her, and I think that it was a low blow to give her gossip credibility because they couldn't build up public concensus on the real reason this guy shouldn't have been confirmed, his lack of qualifications.

That said, the fact he hasn't gotten over it 23 years later says a lot.

Thomas is a brilliant legal mind.

He was highly qualified. If he wasn't he never would have had to be trashed by Democrats. They would have just disapproved his nomination. BTW, Joe Biden was the chair for that high-tech lynching.

His whole time on the federal bench was two years. He never tried a case in court. He was simply a party loyalist who was only nominated for a lack of judicial record for the Democrats to scrutinize.

And I agree, what Biden allowed to happen was reprehensible. The Senate came off looking worse for the experience.
 
Justice Clarence Thomas: ‘Northern liberal elites’ worse than segregated South

That Justice Thomas would express such ignorant nonsense should come as no surprise to anyone who has had the misfortune to read any of his opinions.

And this is further vindication for those who opposed his nomination to the Supreme Court.
 
The blacks in the south back in the dark ages of segregation at least knew where people stood and could be ready for problems.

Today white liberals saying one thing in front of blacks then another thing in their white elitist liberal circles is a problem they don't know how to crack. Is that honkey liberal being nice to you being real or a fake setting you up.

This from the guy that is always accusing others of not reading.

He did not say that the north is more racist than the south, what he said was that when the whole country was racist the people in the north preferred to pretend to be your friend and then stab you in the back. For some obscure reason, he found that to be much worse than the south, which flat out treated him with contempt when they had a problem with him.

Thanks for finally proving beyond any shadow of a doubt that you are a hack. If you weren't, you would know that Malcolm X said roughly the same thing, and had just as big of a problem with it.
welcome to everywhere

Can't admit you are wrong, can you?
