I heard him interviewed on Limbaugh last week. Have not read the book yet. In the interview he came across as an honest and honorable man.
Agreed, and a humble man as well.
Justice Thomas has been attacked in just about every way possible. None of these criticisms really deal with what really cause his detractors pain, his political views. Their all ad hominem attacks on his personality.
Indeed......
This book is going to be my husband’s and sons’ Christmas presents. What the left will never comprehend is the strength of character Clarence Thomas has and has exhibited through his horrendous hearing and to this day.
I have ordered the book and should have in a day or two.
He is one of the few living famous(?) people I’d like to meet.
Who was the (NPR commentator I think) person who said she hoped Justice Thomas’s wife fed him lots of high fat food so he would die an early death?
Justice Thomas gave a very moving speech and Q&A to some young students. Alas, it seems to be no longer available.

That would be the despicable Julianne Malveaux.
Justice Clarence Thomas is my idea of the very finest thing a man can be. And an American can be. And a judge can be. Am I making my point here :)
re-reun of Q&A on C-SPAN now.
Meanwhile a white man that dodged the draft, had multiple accusations of sexual impropriety is their hero.
Hi, since this is a draft (correct) forth paragraph last sentence might want to be reconsidered. You will get slammed with that sentence.
I am not black but I am conservative and a few of my friends who happen to be black are mostly conservative as well so I know you are not alone.
Thanks for the Post,
Corrected.
Justice Thomas is a fine man and fine justice. It just drives the libs daffy because he is sane and they aren’t. Also he has morals and and they don’t.
On the November 4, 1994 episode of the PBS talk show, To the Contrary, Malveaux summed up her feelings regarding Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas:
“The man is on the Court. You know, I hope his wife feeds him lots of eggs and butter and he dies early like many black men do, of heart disease. Well, that’s how I feel. He is an absolutely reprehensible person.
She is almost in a class by herself when it comes to both colossal ignorance, obnoxiousness and plain nastiness. Her finger-wagging, neck-gyrating, lip-pursing schtick reminds me of the grossest caricatures of Black women from minstrel shows. She makes Whoopi Goldberg look like Harriet Tubman.
I heard part of it, too. Justice Thomas strikes me as a truly good and decent man. Therefore, the left must try to destroy him.
