Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas is appearing on 60 Minutes this Sunday with Steve Kroft, reports the Drudge Report. Thomas has a book coming out.
What was that rancorous confirmation battle all about 16 years ago. Abortion, of course.
"That was the elephant in the room... That was the issue. That is the issue that people are apparently so upset about," he tells Kroft. "[That is the issue] that you determine the composition of your Supreme Court and your entire federal judiciary, it seems now," says Thomas.
Thomas also has a few words about Anita Hill, his accuser in the confirmation hearings that he called a “high-tech lynching.”
The Anita Hill that he knew what not the shrinking violet who took ten years to pluck up the courage to complain of mis-treatment. Says Thomas:
She did not take slights very kindly and anyone who did anything, she responded very quickly.
Well, of course. Anita Hill was an invention of the liberals, a missile intended to take Clarence Thomas out. And it all nearly worked.
