Clearly they meant black female but the headline writer felt unqualified to write that as he’s not a biologist.

Claudette Rose approves of your comment.

Someday a black woman will earn this appointment.

But the honor will have been stolen.

Sad.

[Jolly]

Neither will Thomas.

I look forward to his next majority ruling.

"We don’t need a biologist — she’s definitely a woman."

[Copper]

Wow, isn't she great? She knows so many words.

[Horace]

Nice to see she's approaching the new job with some humility.

[Mik]

babbling.

Thomas is my new hero.

There is no more hated a man in America, I mean other than Trump, amongst leftist opinionators. I’ll have to write a post about the stuff they say when they talk amongst themselves about that guy. I am a fly on the wall in a hyper liberal discussion group led by a guy who used to take piano lessons from the same teacher as me. Oh boy. The hatred they have for Thomas.

Sure, he doesn't follow the guidelines for, well, you know, as our president explained during the campaign.

Damn house nigger.

He's a sellout by definition (not worth discussing alternative theories), and if you speak of his life, or his history, you run the risk of humanizing him. Anybody engaging in public discussions of the man must be careful to make an unambiguous point that the man is Evil, full stop.

Those are literally the terms these people speak of Thomas in.

[Jolly]

Besides, he married a white woman.

Since the "oral" statements before the Supreme Court are so short (maybe 1(?) hour for each side), I am wondering if they really change anybodies mind.

(So why is she filibustering?)

Sorry, about that.

But at the appellate level, most of the arguments are made on paper by filing briefs, rather than in oral arguments. So, you may have a point there.

Good luck finding a black man in a tv ad that didn't marry a white woman.
