Do YOU think I;m guilty of that?
No, at least not in this thread. Like I said, the Clarence Thomas issue had nothing to do with race - except for what you & LWT said: Black conservatives are specially reserved for an intense sort of hate from the far left because they don't fit the mold.
Woods, it is not my judgment, it's the fact. As for the harassment, I said I believed what Hill accused him of, and also believed that it was not only minor, but that if it really bothered her she should have said something at the time. Don't you bother to read the posts of posters you are slamming?
Beks, I read the part where you called Thomas treasonous. That is a worse slam than I have ever given you. I did not read the 10,000+ bytes you clipped and pasted about the Florida vote - which seems to me to be your big reason for hating Thomas.
Did you ever consider that Gore would have been president without the SC involved if he could have only won his home state?

He's also fair - something of which a certain little red dot should take note.

Beks, I've read Bugliosi's commentary and I disagree with it. Have you read the Levin book I cited?
The counter argument is that the legislative discretion in choosing electors is plenary, that no one, not even the courts have the authority to counter that. This is, in fact, the argument Clarence Thomas made in his opinion on the subject. In fact the Florida legislature was about to exercise that plenary authority by passing a resolution awarding Florida's electors to Bush.
I don't have the reference in front of me so this is a parphrase, but the process determined by the legislature had been followed: initial count, machine recount, hand recount, certification of the results. All three of the counts showed Bush as the winner, the Florida court had no Constitutional authority to order more recounts.
Ps, if you had all that at hand why didn't you post it instead of just asserting that I'm wrong?
