Clarence Thomas: The ‘Modern-Day Liberal’ Has Been Bigger ‘Impediment’ than ‘Klansmen’

So, he's saying it was the liberals and progressives who enacted Jim Crow laws, black codes, segregation, etc etc? Or the Democrats?

 

Who do you believe he was referring to by “modern day liberal”? Evangelicals?

 

Since your statement regarding the witnesses and political slander can't be independently verified(and since they haven't been charged with slander) that must make you a liar(using the standard you just set in this post), right ?

 

It was racist Southerners!

 

Everyone knows that public figures almost never win libel/slander suits. Why pretend that a lawsuit is a remedy when you know it is not?

"Swetnick, who is represented by Michael Avenatti, has not been approached by the FBI.
Julie Swetnick, in her first broadcast television interview since accusing Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh of sexual misconduct, told NBC News national correspondent Kate Snow she couldn't be sure that Kavanaugh was one of the boys who assaulted her during a party in the 1980s."

The witnesses were caught in their lies. Hence the confirmation.

 

It was racist Democrats trying to overthrow elected Republican governments. It's what they do.

You oppose that kind of crap - right?

"The second step of the Mississippi Plan was intimidation of the Black populace who had so recently been granted their voting rights. While economic coercion against black sharecroppers was employed to some limited success, it was violence that played the largest part in intimidation. Groups of Democrats, called "rifle clubs," frequently provoked riots at Republican rallies, shooting down dozens of blacks in the ensuing conflict."

You mean like Ginsburg?

 

He is saying that progressive liberals have been part of the DP while those laws were enacted.
Progressive liberals have contributed to the institutional racism of the DP.

I would guess that most ordinary American progressives were ignorant of the motivation behind many racist DP strategies.

This is the unvarnished truth: “Both of them have sold us out, both parties have sold us out. Both parties are racist, and the Democratic Party is more racist than the Republican Party.” Malcom X, By Any Means Necessary, Malcom X, Betty Shabazz and Pathfinder Press, 1992, P 46.

 

Thank you for establishing that I was correct about it being Southern racists.

 

What is the difference between a Southern white Democrat racist and a Northern white Democrat racist?

 

You can plainly see a Kluxer approaching. You couldn't even imagine the den of liberal liars and fakirs trying to deep-six Kavanaugh.

 

Well, there was that one time.....

 

It is quite strange to hear a sitting Supreme proclaim that what half the nation supports is akin to being a member of the KKK. Whether he is right or not is immaterial. His job is to be impartial and interpret the constitution in a fair and honest manner without prejudice. His comments also reveal something we all know but seem to ignore, every pick is political, every jurist is biased and the court is nothing but a nine person judge and jury made up of partisans using their own opinions to force the nation to bend to their almighty power.

 

That's an urban legend.

 

Sorry, you don't get to change laws and standards just because you don't like the outcome.

Your "confirmation" is fake news.

 

I agree.

Sotomayor, with her recent complications with Diabetes may actually be replaced before Ginsberg.

 

I have not seen where Ginsburg spoke about a subset of the population, care to post her remarks? If she said conservatives were worse than nazi’s I would gladly condemn her, would you?

 

Prior to the Civil War, 75% of the Jewish population living in the South owned slaves as compared to less than 5% of the total population.

So, the members of that Jewish group all switch to the Republican Party?


It is more than an urban legend. It is a flat out lie.

 

The polling is saying that up to 30% of the Black vote may go to Trump in 2020.

While that may be a stretch in the final analysis, Candace Brown and Kanye might just get to 20%, and that would be a landmark shift.

 

You mean like Ginsberg has a history of doing?

 

People keep saying she has made all of these remarks about conservatives voters or republicans in general but I have yet to see one.
Care to post a few?

 

The Kluxers are dug into the democrat party like an oat cell tumor in a cancerous upper lobe. There is no way in hell to get around that.

 

It's amazing that people in here are denying the party shift in the south during the civil rights era. It is easily looked up and verified.

 

You mean like all the things that are racist or anti-American that the Left HOWLS that Trump has said but that turns out to be false when actual proof is demanded?

 

He was talking about Ginsberg, but you know that.
