“Nice”?

Calling Justice Thomas “far-right” is NICE?

We have different interpretations of that word, I suppose.

Then again, during Reagan’s tenure as President, Thomas was considered by some to be centrist slightly right, but things change, don’t they?

I refuse to let the barking moonbats define what is “mainstream”, as they are so far left Marx himself is considered reactionary.

Calling Justice Thomas “far-right” is NICE?

Considering that anyone to the right of Bill Clinton is considered "far right" by the media, I'd take that term with a grain of salt. If Justice Thomas is "far right", I'm proud to consider myself the same and stand right along side him. In the eyes of the real world, we're normal.

For the most part, this article was quite fair.

“Far right” implies someone who is willing to ignore the law in implementing rightist ideology. Justice Thomas is more correctly called a moderate who supports the rule of law.

If he isn't far right, we need a new word for him.

It was Justice Thomas, after all, who wrote the blistering dissent to Gonzales V Raich, the Republic-shattering case pushed through the court by George W Bush which blew down the remaining tent-pole that kept the canvas of centralized, federal government from smothering the people in the stands.

Gonzales v Raich brought about the end of the Republic and the beginning of the nation-state.
