Supreme Court "Justice" Clarence Thomas a narcissistic whiner.....
This paragraph from a Washington Post review of US Supreme Court "Justice" Clarence Thomas' new biography reveals HOW NARCISSISTIC, SELF-PITYING, DELUDED, and self-centered 'Justice' Thomas is:
<< Racial imagery abounds in "My Grandfather's Son," a continuation of his description of the Senate hearings as a "high-tech lynching."
"As a child in the Deep South, I'd grown up fearing the lynch mobs of the Ku Klux Klan; as an adult, I was starting to wonder if I'd been afraid of the wrong white people all along," he writes. "My worst fears had come to pass not in Georgia, but in Washington, D.C., where I was being pursued not by bigots in white robes but by left-wing zealots draped in flowing sanctimony." >>
NO... Mr. Thomas... THE LYNCH-MOB KLANSMAN of the KKK and racist South WOULD NEVER HAVE LET YOU BE NOMINATED FOR US Supreme Court Justice IN THE FIRST PLACE. The "white liberal lynch mob" you profess to despise is/are the people who COURAGEOUSLY WENT DOWN TO MISSISSIPPI, GEORGIA, ALABAMA, and other states, often RISKING THEIR LIVES to bring an end to SEGREGATION, so you could advance in society to your full potential. THEY DIDN'T WANT TO LYNCH YOU - they merely wanted to keep you pathetic whinning posterior off of the Supreme Court!
HOW could an educated and reasoned man mistake a DENIAL OF CONFIRMATION for one of the highest positions in the land, with the LYNCH MOB RIGHT WING, who would never have allowed you to go to college in the first place, had they had their choosing?
This SAD, PATHETIC NARCISSISM of the "token Black" on the Supreme Court is confirmed by the last paragraph of the Post's review:
<< But by the time he was confirmed, he said, the prize meant little. Instead of watching the Senate roll call, he drew himself a bath. His wife came to tell him he had been confirmed 52 to 48.
"Whoop-dee-damn-doo," Thomas writes. >>
For CLARENCE THOMAS, it is NOT about the prestigious, influential job (of being a USSC Justice) and the potential impact he could have as a role-model for millions of minority students and children... it is about his WOUNDED VANITY.
In the great tradition of Right-Wing self-centered sense of ENTITLEMENT, CLARENCE "whoop-de-do" THOMAS is a text-book portrait of self-pity and scorn for those whose efforts, in the past, helped him achieve his high position.
