Clarence Thomas loves free gifts form his Repug megadoner

Seems to be an ethics violation and needs to be impeached now for that and his wife's criminal activity.

I dont think there's many ethics rules regarding SUpreme COurt judges.  The founding fathers didnt envision somebody with such low moral character being put into that role.    Clarence Thomas and his fascist-Harpy wife was just something they couldnt fathom.   

 

Congratulations Republicans.

Thomas is the perfect Republican--a traitorous asshole.

 

Despite his obvious intelligence, he believes all the standard RepubliQ wackadoodle shit. That's what the Fathers never saw coming. That someone would be that smart and shit on the Constitution. Not to mention his total lack of ethics.


So, it's true.

 Apparently YOU have a problem with comprehension - I 'll make it simple for you, Simpleton, he followed the existing guidelines after he was advised by the judicary. This never was an issue UNTIL new regulations were enacted.  And for the record - what did I say that was hypocritical ? 

Millerscum, while a raging idiot, doesn't genuinely fail to understand the nature of his hypocrisy.
