Daily Kos: Fox uses Clarence Thomas to promote its tea party event
did you wake up this morning with a teabag in your mouth? You sure do have that on your mind a lot today. Do you like some sweat juice with them?

BTW, your awesome source was (drum roll please) full of crap. It was his wife. I'm so glad people like you are allowed to vote. That's why we're in the mess we're in. Please educate yourself and stop believing everything the intraweb tells you. and get the teabag out of your mouth, it's disgusting!!

So, who exactly can conduct a poll that you will believe then?

He might hear a case that involves Wal Mart someday. Does that mean he can't stop in to pick up something on his way home from work?

All I'm getting at is he isn't an active member of the Tea Party. Or any other political group as far as I know.

I don't see the problem with him being there.

There have been plenty of former Supremes that were members of specific political groups. Taft and Warren come to mind. Don't think it caused problems.

Supremes are human beings just like the rest of us. They don't live in some kind of vacuum.

cbs and the nyt are ALWAYS on the very far edge of any poll. Take a look at a grouping of them and see where they always sit. This isn't rocket science here, but then again some people struggle with the second grade..

perfect example: http://www.realclearpolitics.com/epo...oval-1044.html

even a second grade dropout can figure out which poll to drop because it is obviously skewed.

Figures, it's always the racist white wife who promotes the Tea Party.

I can't stand to even look at the guy. I believe Anita Hill. The thought that he is on the SCOTUS is nauseating at best.

I guess his wife has started a TPish type movement......maybe why he is out stumping, but this is totally unprecedented and unbecoming behavior for a justice. But then again the dude is very good at unbecoming behavior.

For the Shirks, it was a day for their children to seek inspiration from Palin and the other speakers, who questioned Obama’s patriotism and at least one of whom referred to him repeatedly as Barack Hussein.

The couple, who rely on Medicaid for their health care, were also upset about the nation’s new health reforms.

When asked why her family used state-subsidized health care when she criticized people who take handouts, Valerie Shirk said she did not want to stop having children, and that her husband’s income was not enough to cover the family with private insurance.

You can't make this stuff up...

89% of teabaggers are lily white, 66% always vote Repuke, and 63% get all their political news from Faux.

Confirmation of what has been said all along.

The 'baggers are almost exclusively white Republican Faux News viewers...about as far from "mainstream" as you can get.

The "baggers" as you like to call them are 51% Democrats and Independents. Goodness, the Daily KOS. Keep drinking the koolaid!
