Notwithstanding my deep appreciation for what Scalia is about, for my money, Thomas is the real light on the Court.

But because Thomas doesn't accept liberal orthodoxy and his place on the Democrat plantation he is frequently derided as a dim bulb by those "caring" liberals in the press. Actually, he has turned out to be a first rate jurist. Tom

Justice Thomas is absolutely right (he usually is!) with his observation that his tribulation was "all about abortion."

There is no other way to explain how the feminists and their fellow travelers so willingly accepted all of Bill Clinton's antics.

It is interesting that the liberals out there would scream up and down that "abortion" was never the issue. I remember watching to comfirmation hearing with Clarence Thomas and Anita Hill, it was a "high tech lynching" because it was character assissination in a purest form. That is why I don't have respect Sens. Joe Biden, Patrick Leahy, since they are the ones that lead committee. What has ever happened to knowing the law to determine who gets on the court?

Aren't Biden and Leahy part of the fake Catholic crowd? When are they going to be excommunicated? I think they've done more to damage the Church than the looney 6 nuns who were excommunicated the other day. Does our Church understand the concept of proportionality any more? Tom
