Judge Yourself Judge, as You Would Others!

Associate Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas has written a somewhat scathing, one sided autobiographical account of his life. From the excerpts I read, it appears the ultra conservative, African-American justice has spent the better part of his lifetime carrying around a boulder sized chip on his shoulder towards anyone and everyone that didn't share the judge's unbridled respect and adoration he has for himself. I was taught that a judge is a fair and independent arbiter of the facts. A... Read Full Story

Clarence Thomas - A Quiet Man Of Few Words . . . And No Sign Language Ability To Make Up For It

First, a joke : A middle-class man decides to go off and join a monastery which requires an oath of silence. No speech is allowed except for two words every 5 years, to sum up ones experiences to the head monk. After the first 5 years, the monk asked him what two words described his experiences and all he said was HARD BEDS. When the next 5 year period came, the monk asked how things were and he replied BAD FOOD. After 5 more years, he walked up to the monk and said, I QUIT! The monk... Read Full Story

BlackRadioIsBack.com Says Whut?: U.S. Supreme Court Judge Clarence Thomas' Coonery On Display Again

* Sigh * at this Dude Folks can't leave well enough alone...there is absolutely NO concrete reason why this case is even still being considered at this level of the justice system. Hell, you know it's bad when blantantly politically biased justices like David Souter and them are calling the court case a piece of trash.

Clarence Thomas Talks Colleagues into Listening to Bogus Obama Lawsuit

By:  Lynn Green      I was planning to totally ignore the hopeless attention whore, jigaboo and self hating Clarence Thomas in his latest handkerchief head move. However, a Hicktowner contacted me and it was clear that she was upset at Clarence Thomas’ latest antic.  She asked me why he hates black folks so much. Wish I had an answer for her, but how do you explain away a house negro’s actions?  Harriet Tubman dealt handily with such folks but she is no longer around. U.S. Associate... Read Full Story

Obama Says Clarence Thomas Not Experienced

I thought that maybe my ears were lying to me on Saturday night when I heard Barack Obama fix his lips to say that he didn't think Clarence Thomas was "experienced" enough to be a Justice on the Supreme Court. But, lo and behold, I wasn't the only one who heard it as I just heard pollster Frank Luntz say he too heard the Great Fraud out of Illinois prepare to say such. I don't care for Clarence Thomas' position on most any decision that the High Court has handed down, but I dare not say... Read Full Story

The Front of the Motor Home (Clarence Thomas 60 Minutes)

Associate Justice of the Supreme Court, Clarence Thomas, has just written his memoirs, My Grandfather’s Son . I haven’t had a chance to read it yet, but Sixty Minutes did a thirty minute feature on Justice Thomas last night to help promote it. Yes, this is the same Sixty Minutes that went after George W. Bush’s military service during the 2004 election. It’s a little tricky to do news features on sitting justices. For one, as a matter of ethics they can’t discuss specific decisions of the...

Clarence Thomas refers Obama citizenship case to the Supreme Court

Well do tell. I guess since PE Obama named Thomas as one of the justices he felt was a big mistake and openly stated he wouldn't have chosen him....payback time has come early for Justice Clarence Thomas. The U.S. Supreme Court will decide Friday whether to take up a case over president-elect Barack Obama’s citizenship — one of a few around the country seeking to nullify his election, but this one has an interesting lineage. It was referred to the high court by Justice Clarence Thomas, the... Read Full Story
