She is a racist to her core.

[Hunton Peck]

Did the racist mean "purports"?

What could be more racist than to assume that all blacks must think alike?

[VeniVidiVici]

“Proposes to be African-American”? WTF? Is it a requirement for all liberal Black women in politics to be stupid and ignorant?

[marron]

the only way to be a true African-American is to be a far-Left Democrat

The DNC is the party of the race-obsessed.

In their eyes if you are black and conservative, you aren't really black. If you are hispanic and conservative, you aren't really hispanic. If you are female and conservative, you aren't a real female. And on and on.

And conservatives, for their part, could not care less what kind of package your soul is wrapped in. If you believe as we do you are one of us. If you love God, and you love liberty, and you love America, we love you. We're brothers.

Funny thing is...Thomas is blacker than she is.

[EDINVA]

Eleanor, you ignorant slut, the word you wanted is ‘purports’ to be, not ‘proposes’ to be African American.

Oh, and by the way, Clarence Thomas IS an AMERICAN of African descent.

[Lazamataz]

We've got someone who proposes to be African-American

He does?

Wonder what Mrs. Thomas will have to say!

[freespirited]

Exactly ONE other media outlet covered this story. The Hill (print).

Pathetic is too good a word for the LSM.

[Sgt_Schultze]

In every sense of the word, I consider Norton to be a dingleberry.

[SuziQ]

And just where did Eleanor Holmes Norton grow up? Was it in DC, where she would not have experienced HALF the discrimination that Clarence Thomas did while growing up, and what his grandfather would have endured almost every single day?

She's not CULTURALLY black enough to be judging Clarence Thomas.

[Oldpuppymax]

“Proposes to be...?” Do you mean “pretends” or “poses as”, Eleanor? Ignorant people should REALLY STFU.

[popdonnelly]

The Arizona immigration law flap has convinced me that when you’re dealing with “progressive” Democrats, you’re dealing with irrational fanatics.

[LucyJo]

Clarence Thomas withstood the “high-tech lynching” that the Democrat Party attempted against him on national television before he was seated as a SCOTUS Justice.
He withstood discrimination before then, and Ms. Norton’s ignorant and shameful slur is just another example of the discrimination he withstands to this day, because he is an American black man rather than a hyphenated-American on the Democrat plantation.

[throwback]

I read Thomas’ excellent biography. It really s_cks that he's not black because I guess he went through all that discrimination growing up unnecessarily. If only he'd known that, he could have told all those people that wouldn't give him a job, “Hey I may look black, but I'm really not, just call Eleanor at this number”.
