Justice Thomas has not exactly been the spiritual or intellectual leader
of the Court.

Ah Howard your understatement is poetic.(grin)

Let us count our blessings. You may remember the failed nomination of
Harold Carswell. In general, there were less ideological objections to
him than a general realization he wasn't too bright.

Sen. Roman Hruska (R-Neb) complained in one speech "There are a lot of
mediocre people in this country. Don't they deserve representation too?"

Nebraska didn't have a monopoly on that sort of insight. The
then-senator from my own state, the great Commonwealth of Virginia, Bill
Scott (R), called a press conference to deny allegations he was the
dumbest man in the Senate.


The mind boggles. (sigh)
