I was thinking about Anita HIll and Uncle Thomas last night.
How long has it been? Six or eight years back? Anita HIll said uncle Thomas referred to himself as "Long Dong Silver" and made numerous sexual advances. The issue quickly became "is his denial a lie" rather than "did he actually do these things." This was an interesting case because there WAS NO MIDDLE GROUND. One or the other was clearly lying. In the end, congress chose to believe uncle Thomas. So how many of you now believe Anita Hill? Is this the first time we've had a pathological liar sitting on the supreme court.........a guy, by they way, who never says much and hardly ever writes an opinion? |

It's a mistake to believe that this necessary implies anything about belief. So how many of you now believe Anita Hill? Now? Why, has something new come up.....so to speak? Is this the first time we've had a pathological liar sitting on the supreme court......... Is the judiciary somehow lacking in the qualities that exemplify the legislative and the executive? a guy, by they way, who never says much A quality most definitely in short supply in all branches of government at all levels. and hardly ever writes an opinion? Wouldn't have much to do around here, would he? ![]() Wolfgang anything but the facts, ma'am. |

oups.com: Is this the first time we've had a pathological liar sitting on the supreme court........ The judiciary is not any more pure than any other branch of government. Shortcomings found in one will be found in all. The Constitution sets out a pretty good framework for a robust government despite our individual shortcomings. -- Scott Reverse name to reply |
