He identified himself and said he "needed help." He was looking for rightwing activist's take on the impeachment of Bill Clinton.
Very quickly, people realized he was just trying to gather "kook quotes" for his upcoming book on the topic and we called him on it.
The whole thread just turned into a great bash Toobin, and leftwing hack journalists in general, thread.
It was alot of fun. He never came back and I can no longer find the thread.
So Toobin too is attempting a high tech lyniching of an uppity black man
Where’s Jessie and Al when you need them. Don’t they know Toobin is being a raciest?
Sharpton protested the Thomas nomination back in the day.
Apparently you can’t rise that high if they don’t consider you “down with the struggle”
“Seems extremely odd that Toobin wouldn’t answer yes or no as to whether he had interviewed Thomas.”
It’s more than odd, it’s dishonest. If he didn’t interview Thomas, why couldn’t he simply say so?
These people did everything they could to trash Thomas when he was nominated, and they’re doing everything they can to trash him today. This is an example of liberal McCarthyism, to contend that someone must be fatally flawed if they don’t parrot the liberal line.
Here's how Wikipedia explains his situation:
Since joining the Supreme Court, Thomas requested an annulment of his first marriage from the Roman Catholic Church, which was granted by the Tribunal of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Arlington. He was reconciled to the Church in the mid-1990s and remains a practicing Roman Catholic.
See #39
That explains “calvinist” catholic.
Now that is fascinating. I always thought he had converted to the RCC. But he’s actually a reformed Anglican?
She prefers the death penalty to be administered in a less formal fashion than we are used to.
Hey, I recognize this guy now! About two years ago I was in a Men’s Room at the Minneapolis Airport when this guy comes into the stall next to me and starts feeling under the divider and trying to grab my leg,.......yeah, that’s him. I beat the hell out of him and left him for dead! So he’s an author, eh?.
I’ve got to tell yyou I am a big admirer of your posts. Great stuff!
Toobin....
Somebody correct me if I’m wrong, but wasn’t Toobin a “legal analyst” for one of the networks during the 2000 Florida campaign hearings? Isn’t he the assclown that was wrong on nearly every single prediction he made about pending rulings?
I’m like Mr. Thomas; I couldn’t Tooban out of a line up of turds.
Did anyone listent to Laura Ingraham’s interview with Toobin on her radio program? If you did, then the perception was this was an inciteful book, favorable to Thomas. What happened? Did Toobin lie to Laura, or did Laura not read the book before the interview?
See #46
Now I’m confused
He started out Catholic, became Anglican and then reverted to Catholicism a decade or so ago.
Well, “whoop-dee-damn-do.”
left wing scu^bags.
bork, thomas, gingrich, delay, bush, rush, ...,
it’s the same ol’ democrat attack with
no substance,
but lots of noise.
and tv-morons suck it up.
I would guess a faggot.
