Thomas admitted the supremes are “evading” the eligibility issue of our first (or was Clinton the first?) black president.

Credit where credit is due; MHP is the poster child for New Black Racism; she hates whites, she’s proud of it and she has the courage to openly admit it!

In this political climate, it’s not often that I’m stopped in my tracks and amazed. The gymnastics of this nasty liberal troll, contorting to the point of nearly hurting herself, in order to excuse “the one” for liberal crimes is beyond belief.

Imagine her doing the same act for a Republican with a lack of “diversity”.

Listen up. It’s not about diversity. It’s not about multiculturalism. The current battle is for a communist state, pure and simple. And the ends justify the means.

Today’s liberals are communists, and have coalesced into a unified group with one immediate goal. Crushing conservatives. If we keep fracturing, we can hold onto our purity as we live in a communist state.

I wasn't aware that any of them were supposed to represent only a portion of the population.

What segment is Obama supposed to represent, if not all of us?

Clarence Thomas represents the Constitution!

Besides, what would he have to do with the Cabinet, anyway?

Melissa Harris Perry On Cabinet Diversity: Clarence Thomas Doesn't Represent Blacks

Good - That's an indiator that he isn't a racist like Melissa Harris Perry.

He isn't in his position as a reperesentative of a small but vocal minority.
His job is to interpret the law fairly for all Americans.

This reasonoing make no sense at all. What does Clarence Thomas have to do with whether Obama’s lilly white administration respresensts blacks?

From what I gather, she is saying Clarence Thomas is not representative of your typical black person.

I wish it were not so.

Because I have a great deal of respect for Clarence Thomas.

It’s not about diversity.

It’s about getting ALL Liberals in the cabinet

She says we should be careful because no particular physical attributes guarantee a particular ideology, or that particular people of whatever color/ethnicity may not represent the ideological majority of said color. But she oughtta know better. This is elementary. “Diversity” complaints are about the outwits appearance, period. She’s admitting too openly they care more about ideology than race or sex diversity. Which is only natural and proper, but is in direct contradiction of the ethics of diversity with which they pound everyone else over the head.

Loose lips sink charades.

SCOTUS justice is a political position nominated by the president. I think the comparison is apt. The logic of her argument is lacking, however. And it is decidedly illiberal, at least insofar as “diversity” is a lynchlin of what we call liberal ideology.

She’s right, but she’s far too stupid to understand why. Justice Thomas represents freedom-loving patriots, while the “vast majority” of blacks in this country are quite content to live as slaves.

I watch her on MSNBC from time to time, she's a cross between eliz Warren Marxist and Jesse jackson civil rights victim grievance expert.

But she is dangerous because she is a smiley faced “I am your friend’ demeanor.
