Leave Thomas alone....he is one of the best justices we’ve ever had and one of the smartest. There are reasons we aren’t privy too in this matter. It certainly isn’t the black thing either...it is much more...it kind of reminds me of not convicting Bubba after he was impeached...everyone said it was due to the FBI files when in fact it was to keep gore out of the presidency...which he’d won hands down in 2000, if the Republicans had convicted Bubba.
It was a joke. I'm a fan of Justice Thomas.
Sadly there are some overzealous birthers who are willing to trash any solid conservative who does not sufficiently promote the cause to their satisfaction. Justice Thomas happens to be one...falsely accusing him of evading the Obama eligibility issue.
If you haven't, read this book...
An interesting behind the scenes look at the end of the Rehnquist Supreme Court. It provides proof that Thomas is not only a smart guy, but dispels the silly notion that he was just copying Scalia's homework. Quite the contrary. One of Thomas' first cases had him persuading Scalia to change his opinion.
