Toobin has no moral high ground from which to speak:

I have come to the conclusion that there is not one Dem with a conscience. Happily I believe that the rest of the country is FINALLY waking up to the same conclusion.

Both Thomas and his wife recognize government-backed oppression when they see it, from his childhood, and from the way he was treated during his nomination hearings. They see it in Obamacare, in its takeover of our lives.

Makes sense the Left would want him recused. He's in the way again.

They say he's dumb, he's a lightweight, but I've never seen them, not even once, print one of his opinions in full, for the public to read and decide. We're supposed to assume he's dumb, because they say so.

After Thomas’ confirmation hearings, he and his wife were asked how they got through the grueling and unfair process.

I recall the reply was that they drew on their faith. They prayed together and with friends and also played hymns and praise music continually while at home.

Follow the link in post #3 and read the entire (lengthy) New Yorker article!

Toobin goes into great detail of how Thomas has influenced the path of the entire court. It's a reluctant love letter to Thomas’s brilliance and discipline. (I read the book “Supreme Conflict” years ago and it chronicled Thomas’s entrance into the court. From the very beginning, he was changing his colleague's opinions.)

Whether the left will publicly admit it or not, once again, a “dumb conservative” has turned out to be anything but.

I would like to see the brilliant constitutional scholar Obama debate the issue with Thomas.

“Toobin’s article represents the end of the fashionable left’s attempt to portray Thomas as an intellectual lightweight.”

When are they going to notice the intellectual lightweight who resides at 1600 Pennsyvania Ave?

For some reason, I’m reminded of Eddie Murphy’s line from “48 Hrs.”

“I’m your worst nightmare...a [brother] with a lifetime appointment.”
