The Clarence Thomas Interchange on Interstate 95 leads eventually to the Clarence Thomas wing of Savannah’s Carnegie Library, which is near the Clarence Thomas Center for Historical Preservation at the Savannah College of Art and Design.

But Saturday, the Supreme Court justice was 12 more miles down the road, past the city where he grew up and back to the sliver of a place where he was born, among the moss-draped live oaks and golden-brown marshes of Pin Point.

(...)

Pin Point is the world into which Thomas was born, but the museum is owed to the world in which Thomas now lives. His friend Harlan Crow, a wealthy Dallas developer who also donates to conservative political causes, has spent millions of dollars on the project.

That and other generosities to Thomas and his wife, Virginia, have given rise to ethics controversies in Washington. After a New York Times investigative report identified Crow as the museum’s anonymous donor and raised questions about trips Thomas took that Crow might have underwritten, government ethics groups and liberal organizations protested.

5. Government of the rich.............

by (and buy) the rich, and for the rich. All others need not apply. You'll get YOUR reward in heaven! ;)
Thomas is just about the most crooked shyster in ANY court system, let alone the Supreme Whores. True CONservative values, to the core.

6. How come Weiner's photo gets him removed from office,but

breaking the law allows Thomas to continue as a judge? Another more important question that need answering!

7. I wonder how cheaply I could buy Clarance Thomas' votes?

I have some overpriced statuary and swamp land too, would he accept them as payment?

I always wanted to buy a Supreme Court Justice, now that RepubliCONS have made it possible and respectable.

If Clarance wont let me bribe him, maybe Scalia or Alito just might.

I just love my so, so corrupt America.
