Why Thomas published the separate opinion that stole Alito’s thunder: 1. Ole Clarence is fit to be tied about what he regards as the MSM’s ‘high tech lynching’ of his better half, Ginni. 2. He’s been nursing his grievances at being the butt of ridicule for 30 years. Now he is ready to speak out and ...

So does that mean that America's women have all just been varicated?

As George Wallace once proclaimed: Patriarchy now! patriarchy tomorrow! patriarchy forever! Or words to that effect.

jserraglio

Yes. And when Clarence finally breaks his self-imposed three decades of monastic Grand Silence and tells you what his fellows are hellbent to do, believe him, not them.

jserraglio

Alito and Thomas have no excuse for their intellectual dishonesty. Each one of their leaky, wrinkly, septuagenarian butts is old enough to know better. Gorsuch, Kavanaugh and Coney Barrett, though, are mere infants blinded by theocratic ambition and not nearly old enough to remember firsthand what i...

As if self-aggrandizement were not offensive enough, you use it to put down your own kin. But then you have long since moved beyond embarrassment.

Yes, Alito made up his mind first time he read Roe v.Wade, as did the other 5, and then all lied at their confirmation hearings and in Senators' offices.

Gentlemen and ladies don’t lie under oath, they prevaricate.

Thomas is not only a Fascist, but a lying hypocrite.

Actually his motive may be more benign. He may crave that Loving v. Virginia be overturned so that he may rid himself of the Ginni albatross.

This will be a wake up call for apolitical Millennials who don’t remember the bad old days.

And Thomas would not have called for repealing rights to contraception and gay marriage unless (a) he knows there is some support on the Court for the same despite Alito’s disavowal of such intent , (b) he knows he can shockingly and intentionally appeal as he has here to America’s Trumpist GOP and...

If Pence were to testify, he could nail the Donald for permanently but it would cost him the 2024 nomination.
