"a black was required to become a caricature of sorts, providing sideshows of anti-black quips and attacks."
Clarence Thomsas-- Speech 1987
You're in denial about Thomas benefiting from affirmative action. And oh, what a waste it was too.

That quote was written by Jill Abramson and Jane Mayer in Strange Justice, hardly an informative source. And considering that you probably just lifted it from Maureen Dowd's b.s. column on Thomas, you should consider the source. She is the same woman, after all, who completely butchered Bush's quote about terrorist leaders in one of her many meandering and meaningless columns.
Still doesn't change the fact that Thomas, as an intelligent man who did well on the standardized LSAT test, gained admittance based on merit, not his skin tone. I know that liberals hate to see this happen, but it does.
