While Justice Thomas' conservative views and votes on the Court may be considered a good thing amidst leftist propagandizing, I cannot consider the man without remembering Anita Hill.

Interesting to remember that the Senate Judiciary Committee that determined her sexual harassment allegations to be unfounded, was chaired by Joe Biden.

I didn't pay close enough attention to those hearings to have an opinion of my own on the veracity of the allegations. Time and biased punditry have clouded the record to where I don't know that I *could* go back and developed an informed conclusion. But, it remains that I find his opinions well-conceived and solidly founded.

All I recall from those times was a comment about a pubic hair on a Coke can. I'm sure there was more to it. I was young and fairly uninformed at the time, but in hindsight I still don't see Hill's argument as persuasive.

Why is CWB a unicorn? Why is the GOP, the party that freed the slaves, now seen as at best indifferent to the concerns of black Americans?

Sixty years ago, conservatives labeled civil rights activists as “communists”. A smarter conservative movement would have engaged with MLK to encourage an agenda of freedom and opportunity rather than quotas and entitlements.
