Justice Clarence Thomas: ‘Forget the Bigot in the Pick-up Truck...
Red State ^ | 29 Nov 2019 | Elizabeth Vaughn

ABC News was offered a preview of a forthcoming documentary about the life of Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas. The film, produced by conservative filmmaker Michael Pack and Manifold Productions is scheduled for theatrical release in early 2020. The documentary is entitled, “Created Equal: Clarence Thomas in His Own Words.”

ABC reports Thomas saying, “I felt as though in my life I had been looking at the wrong people as the people who would be problematic toward me. We were told that, ‘Oh, it’s gonna be the bigot in the pickup truck; it’s gonna be the Klansmen; it’s gonna be the rural sheriff… But it turned out that through all of that, ultimately the biggest impediment was the modern day liberal. They were the ones who would discount all those things because they have one issue or because they have the power to caricature you.”

Thomas sat for more than 22 hours of interviews over a six-month period in 2018, according to the film’s publicist. Manifold has advertised the movie as a chance to “tell the Clarence Thomas story truly and fully, without cover-ups or distortions.”

Full Title: Justice Clarence Thomas: ‘Forget the Bigot in the Pick-up Truck, Biggest Impediment to his Career was Modern-Day Liberals’

Quite simply, a great man. The liberals could never forgive him for having the temerity to be black and conservative.

Jesse Jackson is quoted as once having said (or written) that when he's walking down a dark,deserted street and hears footsteps behind him he's relieved to look back and see a white person.

Justice Thomas's most dangerous foes are white "progressives" and their black maids and landscapers.

A great man, indeed.

"We were told that, ‘Oh, it’s gonna be the bigot in the pickup truck; it’s gonna be the Klansmen; it’s gonna be the rural sheriff… But it turned out that through all of that, ultimately the biggest impediment was the modern day liberal. They were the ones who would discount all those things because they have one issue or because they have the power to caricature you.”"

“The worst enemy that the Negro have is this white man that runs around here drooling at the mouth professing to love Negros and calling himself a liberal, and it is following these white liberals that has perpetuated problems that Negros have. If the Negro wasn’t taken, tricked or deceived by the white liberal, then Negros would get together and solve our own problems. I only cite these things to show you that in America, the history of the white liberal has been nothing but a series of trickery designed to make Negros think that the white liberal was going to solve our problems. Our problems will never be solved by the white man.”

Leftists (i.e. Virtually all democrats) are the worst racists and bigots around and they have the added hate of virtually everything to boot.

This Malcom X sounds pretty sane. What happened to him? Oh I googled it and he was assassinated by black Muslims.

The problem is that a Progressive is divinely certain that he, and those that agree with him, are the ONLY PEOPLE ON THE PLANET, that have the Correct Solutions to all of life's problems.

No one will convince them otherwise, and they should be killed for questioning Each Progressive's Royal prerogatives.

It's the logical, ethereal destination of Dunning-Kruger, the Ultimate Utopia.

The Clarence Thomas confirmation hearings marked a turning point in my comprehension of leftist behavior. That includes their media enablers.

Justice Thomas is a great man! I will NEVER forget the absolute HELL he was put through in his confirmation hearings. He described it very well when he called it “A High Tech Lynching”. As soon as this movie comes out I WILL go and see it.

He committed the unforgiveable crime of straying off the plantation. Liberals had to destroy him.

I had always had a lot of respect for Justice Thomas but after I read his book my respect went through the roof. He is truly a great man in a time when there are few of them around. I highly recommend reading it.

The Autobiography of Malcolm X should be required reading for every freshman in every liberal college-— but it isn’t.

He was murdered by fellow Black Muslims when he began to evolve away from their sham hybridized doctrine.
If he’d lived, he may have abandoned Islam altogether, who knows?

And Joe Biden was holding the noose and leading the charge against Thomas.
