By whom is he considered a sub-par justice? OH, and when you say "out of touch with the black community" is this being in touch the duty of a supreme court judge? I thought it was to interpret and enforce the laws of our country. Silly me...
Nita
Way to tell them. Of course, those who agree with Obama that we should do away with the Supreme Court wouldn't realize what the job of a justice are. All this talk about Thomas not being racial enough tends to show that the writer has no idea that they aren't supposed to be racial and let race influence their doing their jobs.
Last I heard on the news was that some of the Justices didn't want to appear "Politically" motivated and hence don't go to the SOTU address because of the partisanship of it.. personal preference I guess... they don't want to appear politically biased... but that's just what I heard... I guess the liberals have a hard time not being politically charged and spew rhetoric left and right...
Hogwash. He is poison to the LEFT, because he is a black conservative man.
Regardless of his race, Clarence Thomas is the quiet judge who rarely voices an opinion other to agree with the conservatives. It was a typical Republican choice to find a man so out of touch with the common man [black or white] but use him for his color in order to get an ultra-conservative on the court. Thomas is laughed at in the black community as weird & out of place with the needs of America. Soto Mayor however is considered a good judge because she has an open mind to the needs of poor Americans.
Thomas is a goof & will likely go down as one of the least capable justices. What a waste.
Clarence Thomas is an "Uncle Tom" that the overwhelming number of African-Americans consider an embarrassment & so out of touch with the Black community. He was a horrible choice since he hardly ever gives independent decisions & never even asks questions during court hearings. Thomas is considered a sub-par justice & a very poor judge regardless of his race.
Link that shows the overwhelming majority of Blacks consider Thomas an uncle tom plese.
Republican instruction to Justice Thomas: "never say anything, don't think & always vote with the conservatives"
Clarence Thomas' response: "yes master"
Wow! So you are above the Constitution of the United States of America.
