I think I read somewhere that a couple of law students (perhaps at the Univ. of Oklahoma) had Hill for a law class and they found pubic hairs in their returned papers for the class. Does anybody recall hearing a similar report? If so, it just reinforced in my mind that Hill was fabricating the “pubic hair in my coke” story. Metzenbaum, our sleazy senator at the time, was obsessed with abortion. It was his political sacrament. I believe he and Kennedy were largely behind this Thomas smear and used the Hill charade during the confirmation hearings to try to keep him off the Supreme Court.
The attack on Thomas was no different than the attack on a man I greatly admire, Robert Bork. He wrote a wonderful book, Slouching Toward Gomorrah. I became a believer, the book also made it apparent why people like him, and Thomas, are so frightening to the left.
Difficult to understand? NO. Common sense and morality prevailed. A danger to the left.
The “hair” line was from “The Exorcist.”
