Jeez, just another hateful conservative.

I hate the media and liberals.

Thanks for sharing this really neat story about my fellow Georgian Justice Clarence Thomas. He is a real person and is not full of himself as most judges seem to be.

What a great story!

And the racist liberals didn’t want this man on the Supreme Court.

This story made the rounds on the ESPN website — I was glad to see it. What a great guy. I’m so glad he had an impact on those boys and did so with such humility.

Somehow I don’t think our “wise Latina” has flown coach in the past 20 years...

“He was just a regular old guy, sitting in coach, which really shocked me.”

So much different from the character of those who would have destroyed him.

IMHO

Thanks for posting. I really needed a positive article to read today.

Wow, Justice Thomas. Bless him.

Ankrah will be playing football for Nebraska next year, but Stephens will be attending Stanford. The justice said he doesn’t have any hard feelings over that.

However, had Stephens chosen to attend Oklahoma then I'm sure Justice Thomas would have given him a piece of his mind.

General address of the USSC if anyone is interested. From a quick search it seems to be the only way to send a "Thank You" to Justice Thomas.

Public Information Officer, Supreme Court of the United States, Washington, DC 20543.

Flying coach. That says it all. Not like the elitist, hypocritical politicians and DC crowd who have private jets on the tax payer’s dime. Justice Thomas is a great patriot.

Of course this is a fantastic story about Justice Thomas but what we seem to be missing is that if the vast majority of us were in this situation we would immediately know who it was, while these young (and I am guess African American) men had no clue and referred to him as a regular old guy in coach. We all know the answer, but why isn’t a great man like Justice Thomas held up to be a role model for young men in the black community so they all could recognize him?
