Uh oh. Liberal heads will EXPLODE.
SCOTUS pushback on Bambi...
Awesome!
Saw this at ‘Ace of Spades’ earlier...was wondering when it would get posted here...popcorn is ready.
Oh, please. Liberals are political activists on the bench, making up laws out of whole cloth out of THEIR sense of "justice" and the media hardly bats an eyelash.
Virginia Thomas is not an indentured servant and the 1st amendment right of assembly applies to her, even if the liberals don’t like it.
9th circuit court Justice Stephen Reinhardt is one (of many I assume) who can be used to refute leftists who claim this is improper. Reinhardt, known as one of the most liberal justices on the court of appeals, is married to Ramona Ripston. She is the Executive Director of the ACLU of Southern California.

ANOTHER RACIST WHITE WOMAN...heh heh...
I have great admiration and respect for this woman. People should be in prison for the way she was treated by the commie ‘RATS during their Anita Hill hoax and fiasco.
Hohoho!
Nice to see the LA Times insinuate a “conflict of interest” through this whole piece. No dishonest reporting here /sarc
I love Justice Clarence Thomas, perhaps the smartest man on the Court.
Pray for America and the Tea Parties
Re: Justice’s wife launches ‘tea party’ group
Dear Ms. Hennessey;
This article is nothing but yellow journalism. You would never say this about an ACLU lawyer, or attack Ruth Bader Ginsburg or Sonia Sotomayor in this way. In fact there were a number of times Ginsburg should have recuse herself for a conflict but didnt, where were you then? You are nothing more that a Marxist propagandist. The left has far more scandals that your biased press fails to even mention. Where is this type of story on Nancy Peloiss booze cruses, where she spends $1,000 each week on booze when traveling from Wash. DC to Cal.?
And frankly you are an idiot, for you have not researched either the US Constitution or the Tea Party groups. Gee how shocking a Supreme Court Justice that wants to follow the US Constitution in steady of pushing a Socialist agenda.
As for your love of Socialism let me ask you this: Liberals never gets the most obvious question: Why has the Left killed 100 million people in the 20th century, according to French Marxist historian Courtois and his team? The Left must be made to answer: why does its blind “idealism” and its unquenchable power-craving lead to such disastrous results, over and over again? Why does the British medical system have patients parked on gurneys in dirty hallways? Why are their waiting times for life-saving operations so much longer than ours?
Why does Prime Minister Gordon Brown advocate using your organs after you die, without your permission?
Thomas Sowell also wrote: “It may be expecting too much to expect most intellectuals to have common sense, when their whole life is based on their being uncommon—that is, saying things that are different from what everyone else is saying. There is only so much genuine originality in anyone. After that, being uncommon means indulging in pointless eccentricities or clever attempts to mock or shock.”

Go Virginia!!
From 'My Grandfather's Son ...
Ken Duberstein, a Washington lobbyist who had volunteered to help steer me through the confirmation process, called the next morning to say that Joe Biden wanted to talk to me before the vote. I called the Judiciary Committee cloakroom, and after a brief wait, Senator Biden came on the line. I held the receiver sideways so that Virginia could hear him speak as we stood together in the kitchen. The senator said that he was torn over his decision and had actually brought two statements with him to the committee meeting that day, one for me and the other against. He had decided to oppose me. Hed voted to confirm Justice Scalia, he explained, and now regretted it; he thought it was possible that I might turn out like Justice Scalia, so he couldnt vote for me.
Thats fine, I said. It doesnt matter to me whether Im confirmed or not. But I entered this process with a good name, and I want to have it at the end.
Judge, I know you dont believe me, he replied, but if any of these last two matters come up, I will be your biggest defender. (The other matter to which he was referring was the leak of my draft opinion.)
He was right about one thing: I didnt believe him.

Kathleen Hennessey
The nonprofit run by Virginia Thomas, wife of Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas, is likely to test notions of political impartiality for the court. Reporting from Washington As Virginia Thomas tells it in her soft-spoken, Midwestern cadence, the story of her involvement in the "tea party" movement is the tale of an average citizen in action. "I am an ordinary citizen from Omaha, Neb., who just may have the chance to preserve liberty along with you and other people like you," she said at a recent panel discussion with tea party leaders in Washington. Thomas went on to count herself among those energized into action by President Obama's "hard-left agenda." But Thomas is no ordinary activist.So, Zero, *now* what do you think about your moronic comments during your moronic State of the Union?
