Well, there you have it; -- imho, Justice Thomas will go down in history as one of the finest; -- and Bork will go down as one of the biggest jokes.

I've got to agree with you. From reading Bork's writings, it turns out that he's a big-time statist.

I've really enjoyed Thomas' opinions and dissents over the years.

Indeed. Bork was literally saying "that part [interpreting the P&I clause] of the job I had as a federal judge and the job I applied for as a Supreme Court Justice is too hard, so I just blew it off."
