The majority of white men and women, Hispanics, blacks, millennials, veterans, and so forth ~ all think your thinking is nothing but shit drizzles.Justice Clarence Thomas, a reliable conservative vote on the Supreme Court, is mulling retirement after the presidential election, according to court watchers.
Thomas, appointed by former President George H.W. Bush and approved by the Senate after a bitter confirmation, has been considering retirement for a while and never planned to stay until he died, they said. He likes to spend summers in his RV with his wife.
His retirement would have a substantial impact on control of the court. The next president is expected to immediately replace the seat opened by the death of conservative Justice Antonin Scalia, providing a one-vote edge in the court that is currently divided 4-4.
Should Thomas leave, that slight majority would continue if Donald Trump becomes president. If it's Hillary Clinton, then she would get the chance to flip two Republican seats, giving the liberals a 6-3 majority.
And, conservatives fear, that could switch to a 7-2 majority if Republican Justice Anthony Kennedy, already a swing vote, retires. He will be 80 next year.
We recently reported that if Clinton wins the presidency, her majority liberal court could stay in power at least until 2050.

Now it's even more important that Hillary becomes president. Hillary could possibly nominate THREE justices to the Supreme Court.
I hope Gary Johnson win in November...
Well, with something like 5%, wowee zowee, he's practically in the Oval Office.
As for Clarence Thomas - good riddance.
Some porch monkey not yielding to your lily white will? Can't happen, can it, Grand Wizard? You need darkies who know their place, doing your bidding. It's hilarious when you call anyone a racist, Archie Bunker, you're the worst
Um ... OK? Well, you may not be able to speak for all those groups, but I guess you can speak for eight year olds ...
But back to reality, any racist lily white Democrat like Luddy is good with you, it's the Republicans who have the problem. Jake, defender of the offensive ...
