I wondered what that meant when I read it. Having discovered Clarence Thomas was a Supreme Court judge doesn't help either. What did the man do wrong?
He also allegedly sexually harassed a subordinate of his, Anita Hill, though the allegations were never substantiated. This was prior to being appointed to the Supreme Court.
Like Colin Powell and Condi Rice, if he was a Democrat he'd have a road in every town named after him.
I can accept differing political views or party affiliations, but that man sold out his country. For shame!
