“When asked which Supreme Court justice he would not have nominated, Obama’s answer was: Clarence Thomas. Says Obama, “I don’t think he was a strong enough jurist or a legal thinker at that time for that. I profoundly disagree with his interpretation [of the Constitution].”
The REAL dangerous element of this comment by Obama is the part about “interpretation” of the Constitution. Thomas rightly believes that the Constitution means EXACTLY what it says...nothing more, nothing less.
Liberals like Obama want to “interpret” the Constitution to their purposes...just like Obama does with the Bible.
You would think that by now Team Obama would have come up with an answer to the abortion question that would have been honest AND made him look diplomatic. I mean, this was a Church forum...what did they think he was going to be asked? Public opinion would have been better if he just said what he thought, decisively and directly, regardless of how it went against the audience. Everyone there knew his stand on abotion. Doesn’t make sense.
