10 Things You Didn't Know About Clarence Thomas

Biden knew there were women waiting to testify about Thomas harrassing them... he refused to call them. He was arrogant with Anita Hill. When the Thomas "lynch" charge came up Biden folded immediately. Thomas purjured himself in order to gain access to the Court, where he has been inattentive, unconcerned, unfocused, and at times incomprehensible. Consider how the Republic is served with people like Thomas in positions of power, and lets not get into the wife and the half million or so she has received to campaign for reactionary causes. Thanks Joe Biden, you did us all a great service by way of furthering your own oppourtunism.... and left us with the worst Justice in history.

I watched TV when Biden was especially nasty to Anita Hill. She didn't want to testify but she told how Thomas, the person with highest power to prevent sexual harassment, as part of FAIR EMPLOYMENT PRACTICES, made unwanted sexual advances to her. She reluctantly told the committee what he said, even though it was obvious she was very embarrassed. If you watched TV those days, you recall mention of pubic hairs, various references to porn, etc. She suffered for her brave witnessing, and we are stuck with this liar. Since then, other women have come forward to say Thomas caused them much grief over the same kinds of sexual harassment. I wish there were a fresh book about the nomination hearing, with new evidence exposed. Justices can be removed for acts that show disrespect for the Court. I want him out of there.
