We are looking for someone who is a real conservative, has a high profile and can handle the liberal heat.
The job we have in mind is President of the United States.
Its a risky proposition to lose such a man who has a very important job right now, but might I suggest that Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas resign his job.
Here is the man Republicans need to change the dynamics of this sad presidential contest we face.
Look and listen, the principled candidates are going nowhere like Tancredo and Hunter.
The higher profile ones all have liberal skeletons in their closet and the ability to modify conservatism on a dime.
They will run to the middle and govern there, you can be sure.
That includes the long-time Washington lobbyist who refused to vote guilty on the impeachment of Bill Clinton.
Do you know his name? Fred Thompson.
That co-conspirator with John McCain on the McCain-Feingold conservative censorship bill is not a conservative in my book.
I don't like having to tell the truth, but I know that websites like this are constantly flooded by outsiders who promote candidates, not principles like I am trying to do.
So let me continue to say, we need principles badly in this campaign and a way to break out and reach new voters beyond our base.
Hence, a candidate of principle who would shake the Demo plan for a Clinton-Obama ticket.
Wouldn't Justice Clarence Thomas fit that picture perfectly.
I admit we need his vote on the court, but for the sake of a principled presidency that would obviously appoint good replacements to the court, is it a risk we should consider?
So there you have it to consider.
Tried, Tested and Principled.
Clarence Thomas for President.
As much as I like the Justice Thomas, he could & does the best thing by staying on the court..
To me the only way to defet the libs is in the courts, that is the way the they get us, so turn about is fair play!
I’m in. My dream ticket: Thomas-Paul, or Paul-Thomas.
Agreed. And for those of us in the states whose primaries are after the “wave of inevitibility” the ability to influence those choices is zero to none.
I fear there is a rocky road ahead.
False. Start over.
He’s in a much more powerful position now and wouldn’t consider the move.
I would vote for him. Tell me who would be better.
It requires 67 votes for conviction — I don’t think that many Democrats would have crossed over.
If Justice Clarence Thomas were to resign from the USSC to become a candidate for the presidency, that act alone, in my mind would disqualify him because it would bring to question his ability to make rational decisions!
But Clinton WAS impeached! You probably meant if he was removed as president, right?
Yes - sorry, not enough coffee this morning - was up with my sick daughter till 3:30 a.m.
Take care.
Best -- Dave
