COMMENT MODERATION IS IN EFFECT UFN. This means that if you are an insulting dick, nobody will ever see it.
This kind of BULLSHIT drives me NUTS!
ReplyDeleteDoes anybody believe this crap, maybe this lying douchbag really didn't know about his wife's income, right! Check his income tax filings, was it reported there? I am justifiably outraged, why the hell should anyone follow any law they don't agree with in this country if the members of the Supreme Court don't, not to mention Congress.
This is what I'm talking about, from the daily KO's.
Clarence Thomas offers "implausible" excuse for false disclosure reports spanning 13 years

Politico:
Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas has amended 13 years’ worth of disclosure reports to include details of wife Virginia Thomas’s sources of income, documents released on Monday show.
The documents indicate that Thomas’s wife, who goes by Ginni, had worked for Hillsdale College in Michigan, the Heritage Foundation and the Republican leadership in the House of Representatives, among other entities.
Like all federal judges, Thomas must file annual disclosure reports on his personal finances, but he had omitted details of his wife’s earnings in what he wrote was a “misunderstanding of the filing instructions.” He also had checked a box marking no spousal income.
Common Cause, which had revealed payments totaling $690,000 from the Heritage Foundation to Thomas' wife, said Thomas' explanation wasimplausible:
In a document stamped “self-initiated amendment,” Thomas wrote that the omissions were made as a result of a “misunderstanding of the filing instructions,” an excuse Common Cause finds difficult to believe.
On the form, Thomas had checked a box that stated “none” for spousal income.
“Justice Thomas sits on the highest court of the land, is called upon daily to understand and interpret the most complicated legal issues of our day and makes decisions that affect millions,” said Common Cause President Bob Edgar. “It is hard to see how he could have misunderstood the simple directions of a federal disclosure form. We find his excuse is implausible.”
We also continue to be puzzled by omission of Liberty Central as Virginia Thomas’s most recent employer.
It's bad enough that Clarence Thomas' wife was paid hundreds of thousands of dollars by conservative groups with an agenda before the Supreme Court, but the fact that he covered it up is extraordinary. This shouldn't be swept under the table -- there ought to be a formal, independent inquiry into Thomas' action, especially considering the questions about whether Koch Industries influenced his decision in Citizens United. If Clarence Thomas violated the public trust, he has no place on the Supreme Court -- he ought to be impeached and removed from office.
You can forget about impeachment, that is only for having sex in the Oval Office apparently. I believe the house would have to vote on this, they are more likely to give him a medal of freedom than impeach him for lying on some income reporting forms, fucking hypocrites
Problem is that the Supremes set their own ethics rules. Nothing is going to happen there The only other avenue is impeachment, and since Thomas is the darling of the Teabaggers and since the Teabaggers are right know holding the GOP by the balls, Thomas won't be impeached.
ReplyDeleteThe only thing left to do is public shaming and it is clear that Thomas not only doesn't give a shit, he thinks he is the victim.
While it doesn't hurt to yell about it, nothing is going to happen. Get used to that.
Gerbils? Or Goebbels? Or is Goebbels pronounced like Gerbils?
